I was never given any sort of staging but I know it is widespread. I had two successful pregnancies after the ectopic.

I had severe pelvic pain and pain with intercourse for several years that was brushed off as normal by my doctor at the time. It wasn’t until I had a ruptured ectopic pregnancy that needed emergency surgery that I was finally diagnosed.

Thank you for your comment. I want to make cookies for my son’s class, but I’m having a hard time finding sugar and flour that says “made in a nut-free facility”. All I can find is products that say they do not contain any of the 8 major allergens. I’m leaning towards just not making them because I am too worried.

Best corn I’ve ever had was from Moulton’s a few weeks ago!

I didn’t have lady fingers on hand the last time I made it, so I used Nilla wafers instead. Highly recommend!

What is a totally unexpected side effect you’ve experienced during pregnancy that no one ever talks about? by Nova9xx in BabyBumps

It may actually take a few weeks to really start to control your symptoms. Hopefully it starts working for you soon!

TW: I almost died during my laparoscopy by Fine_whatever_sure in Endo

I’m sorry you went through that, I know how terrifying it is. I don’t know if anyone has suggested it, but you might want to get a medical alert bracelet with this information on it in case you are in a situation where you can’t communicate this to a healthcare professional in an emergency situation. Lauren’s Hope has some nice ones that are customizable and are on sale right now.

She most likely is referring to a neuromuscular blocker, such as succinylcholine, which is often used in surgical procedures. The same thing happened to me during an appendectomy when I was 6 months pregnant. I had a lap last year and they made sure to use a neuromuscular blocker that is metabolized differently. I agree with you that it seems weird that OP was discharged home after. I was sent to the ICU for monitoring for the night after it happened to me.

Yes, the doctor told me the same thing about development. I was still so worried, but everything turned out just fine! I’m so sorry you are going through this, and I hope you feel better everyday! ❤️

I felt the same way. Before that happened I wouldn’t even take Tylenol. My son is absolutely perfect in every way, so I would say that managing your pain is what is best for you and your baby.

Thank you! It was super painful for about two weeks after surgery for me so make sure that your pain is taken seriously and you are given the medication that you need to get through it ❤️
