Welp...
I found out I was pregnant on April 18. Yay!
I started bleeding heavily on April 25. Crap!
Ultrasound confirms it's ectopic May 1. F*&%!
It wasn't even in my tube, like most ectopic pregnancies are. It was on my right ovary.
Seriously.
Nothing is ever easy it seems.
Since I was only 6 weeks pregnant and my hormone levels were very low, they gave me a shot of methotrexate. That stops cellular growth, and then hopefully your body just reabsorbs everything. I was really hoping for no surgery, and so far I've been lucky with that.
Today I got word that my hormone levels are indeed dropping. I still feel sort of off, I guess...a little dizzy, tired, just not great. I also have a cold, which is not helping.
I can't even explain how much I felt like a ticking time bomb. I was just waiting for something to rupture and for me to faint and bleed out. It has been quite an awful experience.
But, fortunately, life does go on...
