Re: Has anyone had a baby after an ectopic?

Thanks Natacha, it is a difficult experience and you will always worry about your next pregnancy. It took my a while before I would even buy anything baby related.

Re: Has anyone had a baby after an ectopic?

Hi, I had an ectopic pregnancy in April which resulted in my right tube being removed in surgery. However I am currently 35 weeks pregnant and all has been well with this pregnancy. I would not recommend getting pregnant so soon after an ectopic as you are still healing and need that time. However t...

Re: Braving second attempt?

Thank you The second one. It was a big shock as we never planned on trying again especially so soon. I would stick with advice and wait as it is alot mentally and emotionally to take in. I am still struggling with nerves and feeling anxious now even after a number of scans. I hope you get your gorge...

Re: Braving second attempt?

Hi, I had surgery to remove my right tube in April and was also advised that all otherwise looked healthy. I was advised to wait 3 months or 2 cycles before trying again, however I was never advised against natural or IVF was never mentioned. 5 weeks after leaving hospital I discovered I was expecti...

Re: Swollen stomach and pain

Hi Sonie, Sorry to hear you have also gone through this awful experience. I believe and have heard from others how it can take a while for our bodies to settle back down as it was such a huge thing we went through. You need to be kind to yourself and allow time to recover. I found that because I loo...

Re: Complications after Surgery

Hi Sammy, I had my surgery 5 weeks ago and also had a ruptured right tube therefore had it removed. I have spoke to the GP today who said they agreed I should have had it but had no answers. Had to call the hospital who got someone to look at my notes and call me back. Apparently they don't give it ...

Re: Complications after Surgery

Hi Sammy, Sorry to hear about your experience. This is so hard as it is without all the additional worries you have added on top. I hope you start to feel better soon. I was just wondering about the anti-d as I also have negative blood and has injections with my daughter previously. However this tim...

Re: Swollen stomach and pain

Hi, the tiredness really does get to you doesn't it. I found I couldn't sleep for solid hours but kept napping. I am still the same at nearly 5 weeks post op.

Re: Swollen stomach and pain

Thanks for the reply. That's exactly the problem I think, I am not used to admitting I have to stop or can't do things. I am trying to listen to my body but really struggling with that. I have a follow up in a couple of weeks. My partner has been really good and putting up with me being so moody and...

I had surgery just over 4 weeks ago due to ruptured right tube. I left hospital the next day, with what now seems like no information really. Wounds have healed well but I am still feeling pain around the area and occasionally up to my shoulder. My stomach seems swollen still and I am feeling comple...
