This is what an ectopic pregnancy looks like. How do I know? Cause this is mine.
It literally looks like a tumor or clump of cells because as it attempts to grow in a confined space like a fallopian tube it becomes stunted, deformed, and non viable.

Ever walked around with a belly full of blood? It feels like being socked in the stomach with a bowling ball at every step.

I wanted a baby. Desperately. This isn’t a baby. An ectopic pregnancy is not a baby.
Thank god for medical science. We get to survive and breath and love our living children. And fuck anyone who would condemn us to die for a belly full of blood.
