    Hi,

    Like you I had two ectopic pregnancies. My first and last pregnancies. I was told, although I had damaged one tube, that my chances of becoming pregnant were severely reduced. Not so, I had three children within 5 years and then a miscarriage some years later. Then I was sterilised. I then had another ectopic pregnancy.

    I think that if your tubes are intact that you should be able to have babies - but you should discuss this with a gynaecologist who knows you.

    Good luck

    I am sorry to hear that you have experienced ectopic pregnancy, I too have had this happen to me, but fortunately only once. My falopian tube ruptured and resulted in me having to have sterilization on doctors advice, as he said i had a one in four chance of this happening again to me, and at least i do have children from before (so big of him to say). I also have had miscarriages, two to be exact, so i know how devastated you must be feeling, but please dont give up hope.

    I feel that if you are monitered by your professionals you will get through this and hopefully have children soon.

    Take care of yourself, thinking of you and good luck. x
