9 months ago I had a tubal pregnancy and had to have surgery. I got one of my tubes removed. I had a period a never knew I was pregnant. I thought it was just cramps because I was having my second period. Last month I had a period at the beginning of the month and at the end which is very odd for me and I had some stomach pains and food cravings so I took a pregnancy test which was negative. Well this month I haven't had a period at all and since there is only 2 more days left of the month I decided to take a pregnancy test which came back positive. I am just curious if I should be worried about having another tubal pregnancy?

Hi Bradybunch7,

Depending on the reason, if one was determined, for the first ectopic, you could be at an increased risk of it occurring again. Certainly your doctor or midwife will do an early scan to determine this. Odds are, however, that all will be well. Obviously the early scan can ease your mind. Wishing you a smooth pregnancy!
