Hi girls...
well i just noticed that ive started to spot... its just light brown right now... and still mixed with CM....
and i know everyone says spotting is normal, blah blah... and no i have NOT DTD today.. and i have NOT done anything with extreme activity... Im 8 weeks.. this is not implantation spotting left over... i dont know what it is...
I checked my cervix and its about the same as its been since i got pregnant... it never got high and hard like its supposed to.. its stayed pretty low and soft, but closed... and tonight it seems like "maybe" its a bit more open.. i cant really tell..
but i just know that when i had my last miscarriage i spotted one day, and the next it was gone.. and then that afternoon it started again... and went on and off the rest of that day and then the next it was pretty steady...
so i am gonna be watching it.. as you all know.. But i am also going to call my OBG tomorrow morning and see if they can fit me in.... im TERRIFIED... and i think if it happens again im not trying again either... My DH and i have always wanted to adopt some day, so i might go right to that... but anyways, thats not positive thinking!!! and thats what i need to be doing.... so just pray for me...im really really really scared... and shook up.. and sad.. and to top it off my DH is out of town for work until like 5 am....
~Em
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well i went in this morning... and theres good news and bad news...
there's still a strong heart beat.. he didnt tell me what it was.. he said "pretty fast" ... i hate this Dr.!
He didnt measure the baby either to make sure it was growing right... but from what i could see its bigger than last week..so i think its okay...i even asked him to ..he said he would do that "next time"....
bad news, i have blood built up. From what i dont know! he wouldnt even tell me the whys or hows of it.. he just said it wasnt my fault... and he's calling it a threatened miscarriage...
so he said i will most likely bleed more because there is blood there...but to cross my fingers that i dont bleed a LOT more.. and to call him again if i start to get really crampy and passing clots...
i am on light duty... and pelvic rest.... i have another appointment with him next week..
so im pretty upset... im trying to be optimistic... and i could probably go on and on about this...
but just PLEASE pray for me....
~Em

Em,
I am sorry that you are dealing with this....~hugs~
when I was around 8 weeks, my dr.'s nurse said I may spot because of the umbilical cord attaching to the placenta......sometimes they just "fuse" with no spotting, sometimes not..
maybe that is what is going on ......will be sending positive thoughts your way !
~HUGS~

ugh, I hate to hear that!
I know you are worried and scared. But do remember, spotting is pretty normal. I only say that b/c with DS I spotted all the time.. especially the first trimester. And wouldn't this be around the time your second period is due? You could be spotting from that!
Keep your chin up.. and let us know what the doctor says.

Oh Em, I teared up when I saw your post! I know how scared you must be. I really hope you can get in to see your doc asap, and it really is just that normal spotting that everyone talks about. I will be thinking of you
