04-8-2008 - ECTOPIC NIGHTMARE!!! RECOVERING!!My mood while writing this blog:
RECOVERING!!



ok so last time i updated i think i was booked for a scan on the friday morning, which i attended with mark at 10.15am. Again to my horror nothing was inside my womb so the she did an internal scan and still no baby!! the doc said she was concerned and took my blood AGAIN to see if my hormones had increased further. so i left and awaited her phone call. around 3pm the ward doc called me and said my hormones had more than doubled again and at 6000 they should be seeing something inside the womb by now, so she told me to be in before 8am the next day with over night bag to undergo a laparoscopy to see what is going on... well by 6 pm that same day after going to the toilet i was in serious agony i mean i couldnt even stand up and the blood was coming fast. Mark took me to the ward where they examined me and gave me pain killers and a bed... the next morning at the crack of dawn i went in the theatre for the laparoscopy. The doc had briefed me on what to expect i.e thing being removed but they would give me the option if it wasnt life threatening. i came out of the recovery room hooked up to morphine and i knew straight away that it wasnt good news... after about a 24 hours wait the doc came to see me and told me that he had just saved my life, they discovered a large ectopic pregancy inside my left tube and the tube had to be removed, if it had been left for a few more hours i would of hemeraged and probably died!!! OMG!!!
i have only just got home im very sore i have undergone a major operation and not even known about it, have to spend the next 6 weeks at least recovering from this ecptopic nightmare... WHY ME??...

i hope everyone else has been doing well

Hi, I just came across your blog...and I also have had an ectopic pregnancy, well two...Had my first one in June 2001 and the second on January 2008. The second one just about killed me, the doctor from my town kept telling me I had a cyst on my tube and that it will go away no need for surgery well him being a doctor I believed him, so I went to a fertility doctor to see why I kept miscarrying and to my surprise, my last tube had ruptured and I was bleeding internally and bleeding to death and have been for the last 2 weeks, I was so freaked out and crying my two babies along with my husband was listening to this doctor and my daughter who was 5 was crying thinking mommy was gonna die and I promised her I wasn't. Ectopic's are the scariest part of pregnancy, I won't deny that one, I couldn't even file a lawsuit cause I was young enough and healthy enough to go In Vitro, and thats what we did, I am no 32 weeks pregnant with a healthy lil girl, but losing both my tubes made me feel ashamed a lil, cause I can't have kids the natural way, I guess I am just glad this is my last baby, I have two plus this one, my husband has 4 plus this one that make 7 total..and I think that's enough...LOL...well good luck..I wish you all the best..and to your very recent blog you just wrote, I don't blame you for not getting your hopes up, I didn't till after the 8th week..all my miscarries happened before that week and I knew if I got past week 8 then it will all be fine...again, I wish you nothing but the best... take care. God bless...

I too have suffered an ectopic pregnancy. It is hard and probably the most painful thing a woman can go through. I seriously thought I was dieing, and I almost did. I was told I would have a hard time Concieving after that, this was july 24 2007.. My son will be turning 1 next month, and my second son is due april 17, 2010... So dont give up hope. I was devestated i thought that I would never get pregnant again and if i did it would be ectopic again. Also the hormones are NOT higher in an ectopic pregnancy, So therefore you would have less symptoms/or take longer to have them. Dont stress, seriously once you relax and quit stressing about it things will happen, i know easier said than done.. I concieved my son end of march/april or last year, in feb. we decided that we werent going to try anymore, and what do you know, it happend and we were so happy! :) Good luck to you, I know it is a hard process to go through,

i am very glad things were taken care of before they turned into a much worse situation..and i am very sorry to hear about the pregnancy. i know you're heartbroken, and though there's nothing anyone else can say to make it better just know you're in many thoughts and prayers. rest and take care of yourself, and don't be afraid to grieve, but don't let it break your spirit ! good things will happen again when you least expect it..and you'll still be ready. good luck in the future. i'm here if you need me, or if you ever just need someone to talk to!
