That is true.. With an Ectopic a D&C wouldn't be possible because a D&C scraps the uterus clean and an Ectopic is in the tube. They would have done surgery or given you the shot.

They just did a d&c with your first ectopic?? That does not sound right, especially if you were bleeding internally. They would have done surgery to remove the tube that burst and to repair the bleeding.  At almost 11 weeks you would know if it was an ectopic already, if you did have a previous ectopic, which it doesn't sound like you did with the way you described your last experience they should have done an early scan at around 6 or 7 weeks to rule another one out.

I have had an ectopic pregnancy where they had to do emergency surgery to remove my right tube and pump out the 2 units of blood that I had in my abdomen. Since that ectopic I have had one child who is 2 1/2 years old and I am currently 22 weeks pregnant again. There is no reason to believe you can not carry a baby after an ectopic. The only risk is another ectopic or if when you had the surgery they cut into your uterus, not the tube. They then would treat it like a previous c-section. Good Luck.

i don't know why they haven't scanned you earlier if you had an ectopic before!! if your not having pains or bleeding i think you'll be fine, and their is no prove that ectopic pregnancy's it will effect future pregnancy's!! good luck :) x

If you were going to have another Ectopic pregnancy you would already know about it because your tube would have burst. A past Ectopic pregnancy doesn't affect your ability to carry a future pregnancy.
