Loops12 - Just wanting to give you info about ectopics...with me, it was about 2 - 3 years ago...I was doing my usual sales trip for work to melb, adelaide, qld and Perth...all up it was a 3 week sales trip. I was getting ready to leave SYD - ADEL when that norning i noticed brown spotting..thought AF was on her way so didn't think much of it....while in Adelaide for 3 days the spotting stopped..then i was on my way from ADEL - MEL and some more spotting...again i thought AF wants to rear her ugly head, but changed her mind...came back to SYD after 3 days and no more spotting.....4 days later as i was getting ready to go to QLD, spotting started again but this time a little heavier..again i put it down to AF...came back to SYD 5 days later and spotting stopped.
At this point i had no other symptoms, no pain, no cramping, no nausea, no sore boobies..nothing. Then after 2 days back was getting ready to go to Perth, evreything still ok..as far as i was concerned...on the plane drank one of those small red wine bottles..felt great!!! Get to Perth check in to Hotel...it was evening so thought i would have a warm shower and go to bed...well...as soon as i took my bra off the pain and heaviness was excruciating...i also noticed more spotting brownish / red in color but not very heavy...thought maybe i was tooo stressed from work and all the travelling put my body out of whack and AF was just having a difficult time getting to the party...I also noticed at that time that my stomack was very swollen..but still no pain symptoms...it wasn't until i got back and a relative suggest i do a pregnancy test that i realised i was pregnant...5 days later at the U/S found it was a twin ectopic......i was devastated to say the least....hence why i am here today. I hope this helps you in some way..if you need anymore info let me know...but just like pregnancies are all different, ectopics are different with everyone too.
