We are pregnant after losing our sweet babe last year to an ectopic pregnancy. My cycles/ovulation have been off since our loss, and yesterday I took a test and it turned positive instantly. I am beyond excited, but also majorly nervous since our miscarriage happened after 6 weeks. I've read that having an ectopic pregnancy also increases your risk for another in other pregnancies. Would you wait to see your doctor, or go in to have them check to see if your hcg levels are increasing?

Based on your previous history I would call your doctor right away.
Congrats!!!
-
Call, call, call! I would definitely want to know if my levels were increasing, and your doc might even do an early ultrasound depending on how far along you are to ensure history hasn't repeated itself.
Congratulations

Congratulations! I would call. Your doc should do HCG testing and/or an ultrasound given your history. So sorry about your previous loss.
-
Congratulations!!!
Given your history I would definitely call!
-
Congrats!!! And I agree with everyone else, definitely call!

Congratulations! Agree with all of the above that you need to call. Both because it might help you feel better, and because they should do extra monitoring with your history.

Definitely call I found out I had an ectopic in January around 6 weeks on the right side and then got pregnant again in March and found out round 5 weeks and 2 days that it was another ectopic but on the left side so now we were advised to wait 6 months before trying again and try to get a hsg done first to make sure there is nothing blocking my tubes but I hope that's not the case for you fx and congrats

Congrats!!!!
-
Congrats and yes you should call if you have had past ectopic pregnancies they should see you right away.
-
Congrats! I would go ahead and call the doc - good luck!
