12.  The egg normally spends about five days traveling down the tube from the ovary to your uterus, where it implants and begins to develop. If you have an ectopic pregnancy, this doesn't happen, and your pregnancy starts to develop in the tube. This may happen due to damage to your fallopian tube, which causes your tube to be too narrow for the egg to reach its destination. http://www.babycenter.ca/a549381/ectopic- pregnancy#ixzz2tIBxwsLC http://www.babycenter.ca/a549381/ectopic- pregnancy#ixzz2tIBxwsLC
