Are there any symptoms that indicate an ectopic baby?
Severe abdominal or pelvic pain, accompanied by vaginal bleeding, as well as extreme lightheadedness or fainting, per the Mayo Clinic.
Miller said, “Thinking back I know that I certainly ignored the signs and warnings my body gave me about my ectopic pregnancies.” To be safe, I recommend girls have an early pregnancy test to rule out possible problems.
What is the long-term prognosis—will it affect the chance of conceiving again?
Most patients who experience an ectopic pregnancy will achieve a successful pregnancy in the future, even if they’ve lost one fallopian tube during their treatment, according to the Mayo Clinic. However, there is a 10 percent risk that they will experience another ectopic pregnancy, and losing both tubes significantly lowers fertility.
Ectopic pregnancies can also be very difficult emotionally. Amid her emergency surgery and following her pregnancy loss, Miller received support from her partner. Holmes, 24, shared a photo of himself cuddling Miller on his Instagram Story, writing, “Just wanted to say Thankyou so much for all your kind messages and support. Thank you to each one.
