Re: 'Trapped wind' symptom

I think the issue pretty much resolved itself when I reached a nonexistent hcg level. But I do remember having some general discomfort still. I’m sure it will just take some time for it to completely go away, for swelling to go down everywhere. It’s been about 3-4 months for me now and I don’t have ...

Friends/Family having babies

How have others been coping with having friends/family who are pregnant or who have had kids recently? My younger sister and I got pregnant at the exact same time, except that mind ended up being ectopic and hers was healthy. She is due in about a month and it’s been hard seeing her pregnancy progre...

I also now feel wind-related pain on the side where I had my ectopic through my usual cycle, has anyone else experienced t...

Re: 18 months later

Congratulations, Ausgirl1. It gives me a little bit of hope. I hope to be in the same boat as you in the next few months. I can't imagine your relief.

Re: Confused and struggling

Thanks, Becky, I am still luckier than other people. People who haven't been through this couldn't really understand it, so when they try to be nice and supportive by saying that it will happen in the future, they just don't know the complexity of feelings we have. It makes me angry at times, but th...

Re: Confused and struggling

Becky- I am totally with you. I just went through MTX treatment to treat my ectopic pregnancy. I had no idea it was ectopic leading up to my first scan. I had no pain or any concerning symptoms. Before this, I had a missed miscarriage, and I also didn’t find out until my first scan. So, I’ve had not...

Abdominal Pain after MTX Treatment

Hi all- I was treated with two MTX injections about a month ago. My levels started at 16,000 and are now down to ~200, so I’m in the homestretch. But the last two weeks or so, I’ve been experiencing a lot of pain in the lower stomach. It’s particularly painful before a bowel movement, and once that ...
