If an egg is fertilized in a fallopian tube, it is an ectopic pregnancy and cannot result in the healthy delivery of a baby. A tubal or ectopic pregnancy can also be life-threatening if left untreated, according to the Mayo Clinic. While a tubal pregnancy is devastating to a hopeful mom, the good news is that successful detection and treatment of the condition increases your chances of future healthy pregnancies.

Upon learning the news that they are pregnant, many women are flooded with emotions–and questions. Pregnancy is a time filled with uncertain excitement. While worrying about the health of your growing baby is normal, living with constant concern can become tiresome. You can assuage some of this concern by asking questions of your health practitioner and educating yourself on the subject of pregnancy and childbirth.

Many women do not experience bleeding in pregnancy, if you do, it’s natural to be scared or worried. Take some comfort in knowing that it is common to bleed while you are pregnant and is not always a harbinger of trouble.
