| Ectopic pregnancies occur in the fallopian tube
About 97% of ectopic pregnancies occur in the fallopian tube. The remainder implant in the abdominal cavity, on the ovary, or within the cervix. Heterotopic pregnancies occur in one of these areas, while there is also a pregnancy in the uterus. Approximately 100,000 ectopic pregnancies occur each year. Approximately 1 in 66 women will experience this type of pregnancy. Ectopic pregnancy is a very serious condition. When the pregnancy grows in these abnormal areas, it can easily cause massive, rapid bleeding, and even death.
Most ectopic pregnancies occur in the Fallopian tube (so-called tubal pregnancies), but implantation can also occur in the cervix, ovaries, and abdomen. The fetus produces enzymes that allow it to implant in varied types of tissues, and thus an embryo implanted elsewhere than the uterus can cause great tissue damage in its efforts to reach a sufficient supply of blood.

After months (and years) of curtailing pregnancy rumors, Nicole Kidman is finally pregnant. The actress� publicist confirmed Monday night that Nicole and her husband, country singer Keith Urban, are expecting their first child. The couple have recently been very open about their desire to have children. Last fall, Nicole told Vanity Fair that she�s �yearning for one,� while also revealing to the magazine that she suffered a miscarriage and an ectopic pregnancy during her marriage to Tom Cruise (they later adopted two children Isabella, 15, and Connor, 12). Janelle Kidman, Nic�s mother, told the Sydney Morning Herald that her daughter is expecting around the month of July. It�s likely that the actress� famous frozen face will finally start to see some movement soon since you shouldn�t get botox while you�re pregnant.
