Re: Heterocopic pregnancy
I am so sorry to hear of your ectopic pregnancy and loss and I am sending positive thoughts for your next scan.
Although this maybe difficult to read, I have copied information from our website
Heterotopic pregnancy is rare, it is possible to have a twin pregnancy and for one embryo to implant in the uterus and another elsewhere. It is possible for the co-existing intrauterine twin to survive in approximately 30% of diagnosed cases of heterotopic pregnancy, despite the woman being treated surgically for the condition.
Keep those positive thoughts going,
Sending you much love and warm hugs,

Re: Heterocopic pregnancy
I had a heterotopic pregnancy 2 years ago and carried the surviving baby successfully after surgery to remove left fallopian tube. It's a nervous time and probably will feel like a longer pregnancy as everyone know so early rather than after 12 weeks. Fingers crossed for you.
Re: Heterocopic pregnancy
In December of 2018, I had an ectopic pregnancy and they didn’t know it was heterotopic until 1 month later when I was still feeling pregnancy systems. I took a pregnancy test and it was still positive one month post surgery. I had the ectopic at 4 weeks. There was “to much blood” for them to do an internal scan and baby wasn’t showing on ultra sound. 9 weeks later I had blood work and US and found out there was another viable heart beat. I am now 28 weeks pregnant and baby is healthy!!! Keep your heads high and good spirits all around. Positive energy and good vibes go a long way for the heart, mind and body. Thoughts and good vibes your way!!
