Update on ectopic

Ashley 💙💙👼🏼👼🏼💖2020

The past 2 days have been a whirlwind! I still don’t know if I can actually be “happy” yet about being pregnant. I posted earlier this week how my OB thought she saw a scar ectopic, meaning the baby implanted in my csection scar instead of my uterus. A completely rare condition but with everything I’ve been through since 2018, I believe all the rare things could happen to me. So the sent me to see a specialist to rule it out. If that was the case I would have to take MTX to get rid of the baby. Which hurt my heart so bad since we had saw a heartbeat. But ultimately if it was in fact a scar ectopic, it could kill me.

Yesterday we met with the specialist and they showed the baby is actually in my uterus and not in my scar tissue! It also showed I have tilted uterus, so that explains why everything looks different. They still want to see me weekly to make sure my uterus flips back to normal. So as of right now I have a baby in my uterus with a heartbeat of 117, it actually went up from 112 from Tuesday. I am still just I. Disbelief and waiting for the bad, which I hate bc I really want to enjoy this pregnancy!

Also, my HCG levels are still not doubling so that is also concerning. They are increasing, just not doubling.
