Kicking Sensation In Stomach, Irregular Periods, Heavy And Light. Ectopic Pregnancy?
Hi. I am a mother of a 6 and 4 year old. I have recently been feeling kicking in my stomache, so I took a pregnancy test and it came back negative. I ve been having my period, although irregular. Sometimes its heavy, sometimes its light... But I seriously feel like a baby is moving in my stomach. could i be ectopically pregnant?

HELLO MADAM,
Well,l would advise you to go for a abdominopelvic scan with transvaginal ultrasonography to know whether there is any pelvic pathology. I don't think kicking movements are due to a ectopic pregnancy, since they manifest much earlier before the period when normal kicking movements are perceived. There can be some other problem which you are misinterpreting as kicking movements of the baby.an irregular periods can be from so many causes, or which you may need to consult your doctor.
Good luck
