worried about etopic pregnancy..:S

hey ladies im a little worried about an ectopic pregnancy...i an having this pain in the tip of my shoulder ( that is probly due to my work out last night because thats when i noticed it) but ive read that with an ectopic you can have sholder pain ...i dont think i have and other syptoms ... and the pain is not bad but its just not going away.. and i would  call my doctor but i dont have a health card at the moment and i know he will just tell me to go for an ultrasound ( witch i will be doing anyways in the next few days to date my pregnancy as soon as it comes in.)
so i just wondering if anyone on here has had an ectopic and what syptoms they had so i can see if this is imortant or if i probly just pulled something...

thanks ladies

The shoulder pain from and ectopic doesn't start to happen until after your tube has ruptured and your abdomin starts to fill with blood. You would have know if it had ruptured.

Dont panic im sure its down to your work out,i noticed from your profile your 7 weeks,belive me if it were eptopic you would be in alot of pain by now, I suffered an eptopic 2006.mine was at 4-5 weeks i experinced that very pain,but that was along with alot of tummy  pain, which you dont have so try to relax and enjoy.

if it were ectopic, you would be sure to know. it is a horrible pain, and bleeding often happens very early in the pregnancy. if all you are feeling is shoulder pain, just relax and take it easy!
good luck!

you are definately overreacting, the sholder pain for ectoptic happens much later after other symptoms ...cramping, spotting, abdominal pains...im sure you are fine but I would go see my doc whenever possible :)

If you don't have the uterine pain/cramping then I'd ignore the shoulder pain and try to relax...like you said, it is probably from the workout.
