Im around 6 weeks and getting this odd sharp pain on one side. Got scared reading about ectopic online. Does it actually give a feeling or symptom you can notice? Planning to call my doctor anyway.
Please take this seriously. An ectopic can cause sharp one sided pain, shoulder tip pain, dizziness or unusual bleeding. If you feel any of that, go to the doctor or emergency right away. It's confirmed by scan, don't wait it out.
Don't rely on feeling it. Some get severe one sided pain and bleeding, some feel little till it's serious. The early scan tells where the pregnancy is. Any strong pain or fainting, straight to ER.
It can give pain on one side, spotting or feeling lightheaded, but not always obvious early. The safe thing is an early ultrasound to confirm location. If you have sharp pain or dizziness, please go to hospital without delay dear.
I've been through a scare like this and I'd just say don't ignore any sharp pain or unusual bleeding. Get the early scan done to be sure. Please reach your doctor quickly if something feels wrong, sending you strength.
Sometimes yes, my doctor said symptoms can be one sided lower belly pain, abnormal bleeding, feeling faint. But early on it can also feel like normal pregnancy. That's why early scan is so important. If anything feels off, get checked urgently.
