Need input...possible ectopic?
This is my 6th pregnancy and I have 1 duaghter at home. (goes like this.... early m/c, then birth of my daughter, then ectopic, then d/c 9.5wks, then d/c 8.5wks, now this pregnancy)
I went in today (5wks 3days) b/c after intercourse this morning i was bleeding. Spotting, like when I wiped 3 times it was bright red then nothing. I also had cramping and bad pain on my right side that has become a lot duller throughout the day.
Went in this afternoon and had lab (hcg went to 1100 from 81 last week - doc said it rose like a "normal" pregnancy) Then had u/s where they thought they saw a right sided ectopic pregnancy in my tube closer to my uterus but the radiologist wasn't 100% sure. Went so see the doc in tears after all of my losses...
My previous ectopic was different int he fact that my hcg never rose normally but this one has.
He said b/c the radiologist isn't 100% sure he wants to wait and see on Friday for another lab, u/s, and appt.
He brought up the idea of maybe having twins (one inside my uterus, one in my tube) although its rarre. I did use Clomid this month to get pregnant.
Anyone have similar situation and it worked out ok?

yes well on the 24/11 my levels looked fine (12300), on the 26/11/ got tested again and they almost doubled (21000) which was a good sign, but on that same day i started spotting brown, doc said it is fine as long as no red. well yesterday 30/11 I started bleeding red... I went to ER where they ran bloodwork only, telling me 6 wks is too early for u/s, bloodwork came back at 32000. Ok it is up, but only rose by 11000 in 96 hrs? which is telling me they are not rising properly, or they DID rise but are now falling, and I won't know until I go into hospital tomorrow for another blood test to match up against the 32000. If it goes up, slight hope as today I haven't bled all day, no pain, just slight cream/brown discharge so still terrified, but can only wait & see. I am having an u/s next week regardless of outcome... just seems a "normal" miscarriage/ectopic people are saying that it is quite painful & you bleed alot? Maybe not so much ectopic but def miscarriage? I am so unsure but keeping fingers crossed. It *****...
I had spotting and pain with this ectopic but my previous one I had no pain at all. I wish you the best. I"m trying to keep my head up but its hard. My best friend had her baby yesterday and my other friend found out she was pregnant on saturday. I"m happy for them but so jealous and sad too..
Hi hun, im sorry for your loss. it must be so sad.... i couldnt imagine it. i really hope the next time it happens for you, love & prayer your way xx i, myself have just found out i am pregnant, i missed my period but thought it was because someone close to me died, so alot of stress... i also have led my normal life since finding out a few days ago... have been on airplanes, attending funerals, more planes and been to theme parks on gutwrenching rides, and now find out this. I am terrified because of my activities i am going to miscarry or it will be ectopic... i have had no bleeding but alot of cramping... went to doc after doing home tests which they tested my blood and i would be 5w3d and hcg is 12500... They said it is normal, but i dont like these cramps. what was your first sign that it could be ectopic? Because intercourse cannot harm the baby... so i am just wondering for peace of mind. thanks
its ectopic and i got methotrexate today........ now we have 5 angels waiting for us in heaven...
I too have never been in your situation..just wanted to say ill be praying for you and your baby..please keep us posted on how you are feeling..
