I'm glad you got some better news. Some women cramp a lot during their entire pregnancy. It can be scary, especially after miscarriages. I think that is one reason the ER doctors usually say to check up with your own doctors after seeing them- just in the case of something like this.

Well today we got another ultrasound and the new ob/gyn said a completely different result. The sac was never in the tube . Everything is normal. It is always good to ask for a second opinion.

Your post is a little confusing,  Robles.  "Ectopic" means that the baby is growing somewhere outside the uterus.    Is the sac located in her fallopian tube?  If so,  there's absolutely nothing you can do to save the baby and it's emergency surgery.

At this point,  in a healthy pregnancy,  he should be able to see a sac but probably not a baby yet but it would be located inside the uterus.

Best wishes for you and your wife.
