So far, so good. Those two trips to the bathroom were the only times I had any spotting yesterday. I did finish cleaning the house for company, but had hubby do any heavy/extra effort stuff. Enjoyed time with friends last night - they are due with number 5 any day! And Mrs. Friend told me she spotted all the way through three of her pregnancies. I did tell hubby that I'm going to cut him off for at least a week in case that had anything to do with it, and he agreed that it would probably be best. Hubby works at the hospital, so he may talk to my doc this weekend or Monday to see if doc wants me to come in for any reason. My guess is he'll say wait until my next appointment on Aug. 23.
Thanks for the prayers, cakesmooth. I appreciate it so much!0 -
Emotional day for me today. I hit 10 weeks today, and my weekly photo (done every Friday since week 7) confirms that I have just the slightest of bumps, so YAY! I feel like I'm actually pregnant, and not just super tired with really sore boobs! This afternoon, when I went to the bathroom, I wiped just the tiniest bit of pink tinge. I am so freaked out! I lost a baby 10 1/2 years ago at 13 weeks, and am just so worried that it's going to happen again. I've been to the bathroom three times since then (darn baby makes me pee all.the.time), and one of those times I wiped pink tinge again, the other two times were clear. DH and I were intimate last night, so I'm hoping that's all it is. I'd totally go to the doc this afternoon, but we live in a small town and we don't have an ultrasound tech on staff - one is contracted out by appointment only.
Anyway, if anyone prays, I'd love some prayer! My mind is playing tricks on me, making me think I feel cramps, etc. Thanks, gals!
I just want to let you know, you should get checked but at the beginning of my pregnancy, my hubby and I were intimate and I started spotting, the Dr. told me it is perfectly normal to spot after having sex. Afterwards, I told my husband he isn't touching me until the 2nd trimester! Not taking any chances. So far so good, I am 14 weeks and the baby is well! Good luck and sending some prayers your way!0 -

Well, bad news ladies. We lost the baby last night. This miscarriage was very different from my first one - no red bleeding or cramps until I actually passed the baby. We're doing okay, still have to tell our 9-year-old son, which will suck. But, hopefully we'll be back here again someday. Good luck to you all on a happy, healthy pregnancy!0

Well - I just had a positive pregnancy test a few days ago - I was supposed to start my period at 8/2. We have been trying for a year, and I was so burnt out that I took a month off of everything: MFP, trying to conceive, ALL OF IT - before seeking fertility treatment - and lo and behold, I'm pregnant. SO EXCITED!0

so sorry for your loss. When I had a miscarriage last October, we were trying to conceive for the last 13 years and my son who is 13 was so sad when he found out we had lost it. But I got pregnant again 7 months later and this one it's going great. So keep up the faith, you will be back on this board before you know it! 0 -

so i wanted to go ahead and introduce myself! my name is jessica (i did one of the introduction questionnaires in that section of this board) and we just found out we're pregnant with baby number two! our son is 5 1/2 months old - so they're going to be super close in age which is what we have always talked about and wanted...so we're very excited :happy:
i was a part of this board when it first started up and let me tell you...its awesome to have the support of ladies who are going through the same things that you are. just to toss questions around and chat about whats going on...it helped me so much during my first pregnancy and i am so looking forward to making new friends!!
we have had a couple rough weeks...we had to suddenly put down our st bernard maddie who was going to be 4 at the end of this month
she was literally like my baby...such a momma's girl and my 150lb lover! we put her down two saturday's ago...and the thursday after we put her down we found out we are pregnant. i have always thought that there may be some sort of connection between life and death...and i just wonder if there is anything here?!?! losing maddie was, and still is, so hard...but the news of this precious new baby is just amazing.
so here is to an amazing pregnancy and making some friends along the way. a big congrats to all of the mommas and mommas to be!!! please feel free to add me :flowerforyou:0 -

I get my dating ultrasound next Monday @ 7w4d. I feel fine and haven't had any issues yet. But I don't have a lot of symptoms other than fatigue - same as with my first pregnancy. I will feel better when I hear a heartbeat and see something.0

Hi everyone! I'm new on board here. All of last year I was part of fit for future families and it was looking like getting pregnant was going to be a long extensive process. Well I started fertility testing on the 1st of the month and 4 days after my HSG I found out I was pregnant. You are NOT supposed to get an HSG while pregnant so I'm very mad at my doctor for not giving me a test prior to the procedure but so far everything's looking good. Today is my first day of not bleeding which is a blessing and my hormones are continuing to raise so I guess the baby is OK. I don't know my due date or date of conception because I haven't had a normal period since May but I'm thinking sometime in April.
I look forward to getting to know you all!0 -

I understand. I'm 6 weeks today and have no nausea. I want nausea! I had it with my first two pregnancies but not with my last one which miscarried. I know that many healthy babies are born to moms that had no nausea but I want it! It would tell me that sweet pea is ok. I am super tired, cranky, boobs hurt, and smell things that others don't.0 -

So sorry to hear this. I was hoping all would work out for you after the spotting stopped.0 -
I am nearing 14 weeks along, and moving over to the next board. Hope to see you all there soon!0

Hello fellow Moms/Soon to be Moms... I'm Keri. I have a 4 1/2 year old daughter, Paisley, and I'm a SAHM.
My hubby and I have been trying to have another baby since 2008. I had 3 miscarriages in a row... 08, 09 10... And finally I switched drs and my current doctor discovered that I had high grade abnormal cells on my cervix. I had a LEEP procedure done last year which was successful, and we have been trying for another baby since January of this year. We feels SO blessed to be pregnant again! Our due date is April 11, 2013.
I am on the overweight side and I could use some support during this pregnancy. I DO NOT want to gain a bunch of unnecessary weight. I was about 50 lbs lighter when I got pregnant with Paisley, so I just want to keep this pregnancy as healthy as I possibly can. Please feel free to add me for motivation/encouragement...
Congrats to everyone!!! Wishing you all a happy and healthy pregnancy, birth, and beyond!!0 -
I just had my scan this morning. I am only 11weeks and 1 day. However because I am going to Fiji on Saturday I had to do it early. The lady I spoke to when I booked in said it would be fine, but then when I got there the technician was concerned that it was too early and the baby would be too small for the test. Anyway it was all fine, the baby was 48.3mm long and needed to be atleast 48 for the test. Maybe its got my hubbie's genes because he is 6'5"
Everything looked fine, baby was jumping and flipping all over the place. It didn't really look like anything at the 7 week scan, so it was pretty surreal to see this very baby-ish looking thing having a riot of a time in there. Heart rate was 160bpm just like last time.0 -

hi all! and yay for all the spring babies!!! sounds like we're all heading to the doctors, or have been to the doctors, to see where we all are! i have my first appointment today...so it wont be an ultrasound...but just a 'hey...hows it going...this is the deal' sort of thing! so i am excited (although the dr. i am seeing today is not my favorite in the practice!)...it just makes it that much more real! why is it that when they test you and tell you 'yep...you're pregnant' that it makes it more real! :happy:
i am just super excited for this pregnancy. i wonder how it will go...if it will be different from my first...etc!
hope everyone has a great day and weekend!!!0 -
Is anyone else losing weight? I've lost 3 pounds in 3 weeks and I'm 6 weeks currently. I've increased my cals, decreased my excercise a bit, and have no nausea or aversions at all. The nurse said not to worry but after 2 losses that's just impossible.0

I have lost about 7 lbs this week, thats because this week, the nausea hit me hard. Not throwing up, but have no apetite for food whats so ever. the only thing that manages to appeal to me is legumes, apples, oranges. which is all i eat when i can. never felt like this before0 -

Those are nutritious things! I wish I had nausea. How far along are you? I lost weight in my first two pregnancies due to nausea and aversions as well. I had no nausea with the last one and lost it early.0
