Sadly, no. Having an etopic pregnancy would definately cause you a lot of harm, if not, death. I'm not even sure if a baby could grow in one of your tubes, I'm thinking no.

no and neither would you!!! the baby needs a place that will stretch and grow like your uterus does the tube will only stretch so far then it will rupture leading you into either bleeding to death or being put into septic shock! this is why they hurry up and remove an ectopic pregnancy so the tube is not damaged. if you have your tubes tied then you will not get pregnant, now days they cut/burn the tips of the tubes so that even for some reason they come untied then there is no pregnancy, that is why it costs so much to have them reversed because they normally take part of the remaining tube and reconstruct 1 tube to work. and then there are no guarantees that you will become pregnant. if you really want a baby then you would probably be good with in-vitro, given the cost of surgery to reverse the tubal since insurance does not pay. you could be in one of the states where fertility is covered at least some of the tests. I was thinking about it and actually was considering this (because I also had my tubes tied) but after having back surgery it was not advisable for me to carry another one and now the age thing is working against me also, so I figured I will be happy with what I have and wait for the grandparent years.

NO! The baby will die and you will hemhorrage.
Some women spontaneously absorb their ectopic pregnancy with no apparent ill affects, and can be observed without treatment. The most feared complication of an ectopic pregnancy is internal bleeding, causing pelvic and abdominal pain, shock, and even death. Therefore, bleeding in an ectopic pregnancy may require immediate surgical attention. Bleeding results from the rupture of the fallopian tube, or from blood leaking from the end of the tube as the growing placenta erodes into the veins and arteries located inside the tubal wall. Blood coming from the tube can be very irritating to other tissues and organs in the pelvis and abdomen, and result in significant pain. The pelvic blood can lead to scar tissue formation and problems with becoming pregnant in the future. The scar tissue can also increase the risk of future ectopic pregnancies â¥

Unfortunately, no. A fetus is never viable in an ectopic pregnancy. It is impossible to carry and sustain a child in your fallopian tubes and the longer an ectopic pregnancy is allowed to continue the greater the risk of maternal death.
It IS possible to get pregnant and have a normal pregnancy after a tubal ligation, however that's pretty rare.

Ectopic means that it is out of the uterus- there is simply not enough room for the baby to grow. It would be very dangerous for you if it should happen. And chances are also good that it would not survive being in the tube anyhow. I would wait and save up for the reversal instead.

Sorry no, ectopic pregnancies have to be removed, because you fallopian tube and baby will explode, sadly, but true, and can be deadly to you as well as the baby. So it has to be removed. you'd think with all the science out that they could take the baby from the fallopian tube and attach it to the uterus so this little life could live, but thats not the case, which is sad. So yes, you'd have to get a reversal, even though it costs a fortune.

The baby could survive but it is almost impossible. It will not be a normal pregnancy. There have been very rare cases when the tube ruptures not killing mom and the fetus attaches to an organ in the abdominal cavity instead of the uterus. This is extremely dangerous and extremely rare.

No, you can't, an ectopic has to be terminated otherwise it not only can kill the fetus, but you as well in the process. Also, if your tubes are tied......your not gonna get pregnant. And honestly, if you can't afford a reversal, can you really afford to have another child? Sorry.

No it cannot. An ectopic pregnancy is life threatening to you if it is not detected soon enough. And when it does get a bit bigger in your tube it makes your tube break and this then causes internal bleeding, which is why it is life threatening to you. So if an ectopy pregnancy does occur the fetus is removed as soon as it can be after it is detected.

No, the fetus would not survive. An ectopic pregnancy means that the fertilized egg attaches itself in the Fallopian tube instead of in the uterus. The Fallopian tube is like as big as a hair. Once the embryo starts growing, it causes you much pain and if it is not taken care of, your Fallopian tube would burst.

Uh, you cant get pregnant if your tubes are tied.
The egg has to pass from the fallopian tube down into the uterus.
No it would not survive even if fertilized. The tube is smaller in diameter than a straw and it would eventually burst, killing the fetus and maybe even causing you serious blood loss.
