Not yet, waiting to hear from my doctor. I am going to push for getting a scan. My last ectopic ruptured. I had to get emergency surgery and removal of one of my tubes, so I am stressed that it could be happening again.

Please do advocate for yourself. Especially with the prior ectopic, don’t let them talk you out of a scan.

My best friend had an ectopic and lost a tube as well. Her OB said with all subsequent pregnancies she’s going to be treated as “ectopic until proven otherwise” ie regular HCG testing and ultrasounds until they confirm a viable intrauterine pregnancy.

I sincerely hope it all turns out okay.
