Tagged As: Tubal Pregnancy
Question:
I had a tubal pregnancy that was detected during a routine D&E on November 21st. I lost part of my right tube because the embryo (my child) had implanted in my tube. This was my second pregnancy, I have a beautiful, healthy 2 1/2 year old daughter. I have gotten through the physical pain of laprascopy and having a tube removed... but the emotional pain is just starting to hit home! How do I come to terms with the fact that I will never know this child? How do I deal with the fact that I think something I did may have caused this? I want to try again as soon as the doctors clear me, but my husband is freaked out by the whole thing and he doesn't want to try again...everyone is telling me that this is God's way of taking care of a problem but I am having a hard time with that!! How do you get to a place where you aren't afraid to try again? If I lose my other tube next time...I am done!!
Answer:
I am so very sorry for you loss of your baby and your tube. Deciding to try again is a personal choice and only you will know when it's right. I know of no reason that could have caused an ectopic pregnancy. Please be gentle on yourself. I know that some (well-meaning) people will tell you that your loss is not too bad because you have a daughter already.
