Default Ectopic Pregnancy

So my first two pregnancies were miscarriages and my third an ectopic. This will be my fourth pregnancy and this one seems to be progressing quite well. I have been going to get my blood drawn every other day to make sure. does anyone know the chances of another ectopic are for me? I am pretty stressed about it all!!

10 to 20% of women who ttc after one ectopic pg will have another. Your first two miscarriages are not a factor for another ectopic pregnancy. (So in other words, you are not more likely to have an ectopic pg bc of the miscarriages.)

Usually there is a red flag at, at least 4 wks of PG...(lamens terms) Your hormones go "wacko" and the docs can tell that it is ectopic. How far along are you right now? If you are about 6-7 wks I would not worry about this one being ectopic.

I am almost 5 weeks. On Friday I will be 5 weeks and have had no signs of any trouble. Hopefully I am out of the clear on this one. I go to the see the doctor tomorrow to talk about what my levels are and to see how things are progressing. Wish me luck!
