Unfortunately there is nothing you can do to prevent an ectopic. However it is important to check a pregnancy test ASAP as you need to get in touch with GP or epau for an early scan if you are pregnant to rule out an ectopic pregnancy (since you have a history of it)

Nope. Saying that, you shouldn't be able to tell only six days in. I second Roxannacar- tell your GP immediately and mention your previous ectopic. They'll probably want to get you checked out sooner rather than later, which can only be a good thing.

I agree with the other two lovely people. Definitely do a test and if positive book in with your GP. I'm not sure how it works with eptopic but we have had 2 miscarriages and asked midwife, doctor, hospital if we could get scanned more regularly and all have said no because we haven't lost 3 babies. Our midwife is fantastic though. If you are pregnant but they don't scan you, I definitely recommend booking a private scan for piece of mind.

I did get checked for an eptopic pregnancy with this baby because I had pains in 1 side but they said everything was fine so I don't think they'll scan you unless you have pain or pay private. Definitely worth an ask though!

Wishing you all the best! X

Ahh I See! I wasn't too sure how it worked with eptopic. Until 16th September?

I was recommended a place by a girl at work. Also a midwife at the hospital recommended a place to me. You can always good private baby scans for your area and it should come up. We live in Staffordshire. Failing that, ask your gp or midwife. The one we went to, midwife from the hospital work there on the days they're not working so I know they're fully qualified. The only problem is, ours wouldn't scan unless you were 8 weeks+.

Our early scan and early sex scan both cost £45. 15 minute scan, we got it recorded on DVD, could chose 2 pictures and had a cd with all of the pictures on. It's worth the money to put your mind at ease.

All the best for you and your baby! Xx
