I'm having an ectopic pregnancy really, really sad

Hello everyone, unfortunately i have an ectopic pregnancy. all week ive been keeping people updated on my hcg levels, becuase they have been dropping but dropping really slow. so last night my obgyn called me and told me that they wanted to get another ultrasound done asap. so this morning i had to go in and get that done on top of getting another hcg count for the 6th time. well they called me back in 2 hrs later and advised me that i was having an ectopic pregnancy, and now my hcg level dropped from 456 to 163. the good news that they did tell me was that they wouldnt have to perform surgery, because since i was so early in my pregnancy the embroyo was so small that it would just absorb itself or dissolve by itself. all they required was that i continue to check my hcg every 3 days and get an ultrasound next week to check for sure everything is taking its correct course. i am so sad and down my first pregnancy after 2 and a half years of trying and it has to be an ectopic one. i know they are alot of women that have been ttc longer than that or may have had more ectopic or miscarriages then mine, i just never thought it could emotionally hurt me like this. i would never wish this to happen with any female. thank you everyone for all the support again...

A big hug,...don't loose faith and cry, get upset, let out all of your anger against whoever you feel.  It's a good healing medicine.

Hi there, first off I'm so sorry about your ectopic!
I myself have recently had an ectopic which resulted in emergancy surgery and me losing my left follopian tube due to rupture, that was in April 09 and just three months later july 09 I fell pregnant again.............currently I'm 14 weeks and fingers crossed everything is fine.

Just thought I'd try to give you hope after such devastation and to wish you good luck with the future =)

I'm sorry about your loss.  I'd given birth this month if it's not the second ectopic pregnancy.  I know how you feel.........but i'm getting better each day.  Next month, I'll start my 5th IVF for my first baby.
I wish you the best.
