Ask Pregnancy Question

Question from AmyK



Has this happened to you? We got some potentially frightening results from an ultrasound. Any advice? This is something that just needs to be monitored for the last 10 weeks of my pregnancy. Help! I feel like everytime I am starting to get excited and happy, this black cloud comes over me and reminds me that something could be wrong. Any advice?

pregnant. When I went in for my next ob appointment, I had an ultrasound that showed I was only 5 week and 2 days, although by that point I was almost 9 weeks pregnant. I never had any symptoms. The baby just died. Instead of reading about how pregnant women shouldnt get the shot, the ONLY thing I read about pregnant women and the H1N1 shot is that they were top priority for the shot and should have it done as soon as possible. My doctor thought I may have just miscalculated and waited …

Although an ectopic pregnancy is not an overly common thing, there are still enough cases and it is a serious enough issue that it is incredibly important to take into consideration and learn about, regardless of whether you are planning on having children in the near future or not, so that you will be prepared and be able to notice the Ectopic Pregnancy Symptoms if they occur for you.

What an Ectopic Pregnancy is

Whereas in a normal pregnancy the fertilized egg is implanted in the uterus, with an ectopic pregnancy it is instead outside of the uterus, as the egg settles in the fallopian tube roughly 95% of the time, and this is why ectopic pregnancies are so commonly referred to as being ‘tubal pregnancies’.

However with an ectopic pregnancy the egg can also implant itself in other areas of the body, such as the ovary, abdomen, or the cervix and so you also may see these as being referred to as cervical or abdominal pregnancies, but they may be called ectopic pregnancies as well.

Ectopic Pregnancy Symptoms and Signs

One of the good things is that there are certain Ectopic Pregnancy Symptoms that you can watch out for in order to see if your pregnancy might be ectopic, and for instance, this can include nausea, missed periods, breast tenderness, and vomiting. However, because these sorts of symptoms mirror those of a regular pregnancy, a lot of the time women have an ectopic pregnancy but do not know about it.

This is why it is so important to check with your doctor if you have any sorts of pain or bleeding and if you simply feel as though something is not right then see if you can get an ultrasound so that they can check and make sure that the egg is properly implanted in the uterus.

After all, pain is considered as being the first red flag, and you might tend to feel pain in your pelvis, abdomen, or in extreme cases even in your shoulder or neck. Most women typically describe the pain as being sharp and stabbing, and although it most likely will concentrate on one side of the pelvis, this is not always the case and so either way you should make an appointment with your doctor as soon as possible, or even go into the hospital.

Keep in mind that ectopic pregnancies are rare, but it is still crucial to be aware of them and watch out for any ectopic pregnancy symptoms, as ectopic pregnancies are so harmful that they are actually life threatening.

Question from ~Jessika~



I should be about 2 months pregnant or less and my abdomen is already starting to show.
My 3 year old has been saying “Mommy has two babies in her belly” since before we told her I was pregnant which kind of makes me wonder if she is right.
I go to get an ultrasound on Monday, but if it is twins will my abdomen grow faster or will it be about normal?
This may sound stupid but I am honestly curious.
