I would call that a LOT of concern. I'm glad you're OK, sweetie. Ectopics are so dangerous. Scary stuff.

Yeah, i'm pregnant right now. Due Jan 14. It was very unplanned and very unexpected ( i was using Nuva ring) but my husband and i are both happy. He talks more to my tummy than he does to me now. I'm getting a little jealous.

I've been pregnant 5 times. Two miscarriages and two sets of multiples which only resulted in two babies making it to term and then my lil girl.

Shiloh - Jan is a fun month to have a baby! My son was actually born in the middle of a blizzard lol

Pregnant now with #2...orgasms give me Braxton hicks contractions, but it's worth it, haha. 34 weeks along, so even if I went into actual labor, he'd be fine. Midwife says it's fine, so I'm not planning on giving up sex any time soon.

I also got ... more

Since no one answered this, I will. You have probably looked it up by now, but someone else may not know.

An ectopic pregnancy is where the egg fertilizes but doesn't leave the fallopian tube and travel to the uterus. It's also called a tubal pregnancy. If the pregnancy isn't terminated surgically, it is fatal to the mother.

They can happen to anyone, but they are more common in women who are tied, so I'm always worried that it might happen to me. We always say that if we were to get pregnant, despite having two gold clamps on each fallopian tube, then that baby was MEANT TO BE, and it would break my heart to terminate a pregnancy due to a life or death situation.

Sadly, even if the pregnancy is wanted, an ectopic pregnancy cannot be "saved." Ectopic actually means "anywhere but inside the uterus" or in Latin "out of place." Women have had ectopic pregnancies outside the uterus but not in the tubes, the embryo attaches to the fascia of the abdomen or even the intestines or outside of the uterus, too.

The most common kind is IN the tube. The embryo attaches inside the tube before it gets to the uterus and it has to be removed, almost always along with that tube. Once the fertilized ovum is embedded, it cannot be moved, so there is no way to "save" an ectopic pregnancy if it was wanted. Usually, by the time the pain if felt, in a tubal pregnancy, the conceptus is not living anymore. But, there have been cases of pregnancies carried to nearly term with the fetus attached to internal organs or fascia. It is VERY dangerous to continue these types of pregnancies, since the placenta may detach and without external bleeding to let the woman know this has happened, she is still bleeding heavily inside, her life can be threatened.

Sorry to all of you who have had losses.
I can't imagine what that is like. *hugs*


I had a few scares when I was younger and then I got preggers on the pill. I am super glad I did though. I have a beautiful 8 yr old daughter now who brings my life such joy.

I've had two "scares" due to slipped condoms, both solved with Plan B. Luckily, I didn't experience any side effects except tender breasts for a few weeks. Annoying, but very worth it. I am so not ready for kids...

I have a beautiful daughter and before her I had a miscarriage in the first term. I've had several scares as well but those were just late periods.
The sad thing being that my first pregnancy that resulted in miscarriage I used condoms, and my daughter was a birth control baby.

What an interesting thread this has turned out to be! We've all gotten to know a bit more about each other.

I am sorry to hear of the losses on this thread - () to you, ladies.

And I was surprised to learn that we have quite a few pregnant ladies in the community too - congratulations to you all!

I have not been pregnant before, though I am on birth control and when I forget to take my pills we use condoms. Before I started birth control, I did have two condoms break, so I had to get the Plan B pill twice. I don't think that counts at all though.
