sharp shooting pain

Could i have an eptopic pregnancy? im trying not to freak myself out. last night i was laying in bed and coughed and i got this shooting pain in my right ovary area. if i cough today nothing. no spotting  or anything. Could i just be overreacting? was it just like i pulled a muscle or my uterus?

I have a uterine pregnancy and I still get shooting pains from time to time.  They are supposedly normal and from growing pains.  I remember standing up, and I'd get a shooting pain in my ovary area.  I went and got an ultrasound done, and the pregnancy was in the correct location.  I would try not to worry.

Hey.. I had an ectopic pregnancy... TRUST ME... You would know if it were an ectopic, theres no mistaking it.. Its unbearable excruciating pain.. Since it done it when you coughed, I would be very confident in sayin you just pulled somethin... :)Be thankful.
