Spotting and freaking out!

[Winngrin]

Beachy, were you checking your cervix or was some spotting coming out? I have been checking my cervix (I really need to STOP!) and today I have had a teeny bit of barely pink, but only if I check my cervix and then wipe my finger on toilet paper (sorry, TMI!). It hasnt been enough to notice just by wiping. I was just wondering if maybe you had been doing that also, or thought that checking the cervix could cause a little pink tinge?

What is the purpose of checking your cervix??

[Winngrin]

I was checking before conception to take note of my fertility signs, and after I think I ovulated I was checking to see if my cervix changed from soft to firm to confirm ovulation. I guess I got in the habit and now i find myself doing it to check for any sign of bleeding.

[Rosie85]

ahh I see. I have never checked mine before :-)

[Winngrin]

Ugh, dont start if you are even the teensiest bit OCD like me!

[Rosie85]

I am OCD so I will never ever start! haha

So this is interesting...I am looking through my medical records (requested a copy for my new OB) and I was looking at my numbers from my 6 week miscarriage.

I went in for a beta at 5 weeks 5 days (26 DPO) and beta was 9149 and progesterone was 14.1 then I went back at 6 weeks 1 day (29 DPO) and beta was 17,128 and progesterone was 7.2.

So my beta didn't double and progesterone shot way down. I feel like my beta this time is way stronger at almost 5,000 at exactly 5 weeks, but my progesterone seems low. What do you guys think? Does it seem low? I haven't had any more spotting or bleeding so I feel like everything should be OK. It is killing me having to wait until Monday for my lab results!

Aww Beachy, don't worry!!! If you're not bleeding, I think that's a really good sign. Xx

Thanks Beadin! I just hate worrying about it. I just have this horrible feeling something will happen and I can't shake it. I did fine the last couple of days so I don't know why I am starting to worry now. I am just waiting to go to the bathroom and have a full out bleed or something. UGHHHHHHHHH!!

[BeadinMom]

Aww....I know what you mean. You've wanted this for a while and you finally get it and you just feel like something has to go wrong, but that's not the case. You're going to be fine. Hormones will do it to you, too. The hormones always make me so upset. Ignore those damn hormones!!
I know it's easier said than done, but I hope you can relax. I'm saying enough prayers for both of us...♥
