Woke up and went for a wee... More blood! Think a bit went in the loo. What I wiped was pinky brown. Do you think I'm having a mc? :-(

My dr told me to look for fresh blood with ds1, so pinky-brown isn't necessarily a freak-out sign. I had that around 6-7 weeks too, and they said it was probably blood left over from implantation. But call your doctor if you're worried! Let us know... Sending sticky bean thoughts your way.
Thank you! I hope it's nothing!! I've had nothing since. In fact it seems bizarre that there is no evidence of it even having happened. It's hard not to worry a bit... I will have a scan next week and hopefully then will understand what's going on, or fingers crossed at least have reassurance that everything is alright. I'll let you know either way.Quote:

I've been so anxious the last few days that I can't sleep - I'm wondering if it's hormone related. I've stopped worrying about a MC and am now freaking out about something being wrong with the baby, or feeling like I'm betraying my two boys by having another.. it's all weird.. I just feel so down constantly - no excitement at all which is weird because we tried for a while for this baby and thought it might never happen which had me in tears at times! Hormones are weird!
I totally get the betrayal thing. I felt like that when I was pregnant with ds2 and when I found out this time too. It's like you don't want the kids you have to feel like they are not enough, because they are everything! The sleep issues I can also relate to, I've had such vivid and mainly unpleasant dreams as well as a sense of restlessness. Pretty sure the hormones are to blame!!
How far along are you now? Have you got a scan booked yet? The worrying is so difficult to ignore. And actually there has been quite a few sad stories and scares on the board lately which inevitably leads to thinking and more worry.
I'm starting to wonder if I might have a SCH because of the nature of the bleeds. Just little, turning to brown right away and then disappearing. I don't know of miscarriages that start this way, from what I've read the bleeding starts and continues, usually accompanied by pain and heavy red blood. But then my knowledge of miscarriages are pretty limited. I have been concerned about ectopic though as I've read about the unpredictable nature of them... I've had what's felt like ovulation pain but nothing significant. And then there is implantation bleeding... But surely that would happen around 4 weeks. It seems there are many instances of unexplained spotting too. Who knows. I just have to hope and pray everything is ok!!
Just back from my scan... Got to see my little person to be with a tiny flickering heartbeat. :-) She said the spotting must have been implantation!
Yay tree, so happy for you! Well done! Xx
So I decided to add my sway... http://genderdreaming.com/forum/add-...y-attempt.html Wanted to wait until 12 weeks or a bit later at least but then realised I would forget things.
Been a bit crampy the last few days, particularly my back but I think it may be hormonal as it only hurts when I move heavy things or am awkward plus it feels more muscular. I still worry though.... Come on first trimester, hurry up!!!
Could it be round ligament pain, Tree? I read that started sooner in second pregnancies, and now I know it's true. At 11 dpo I started feeling that unmistakable pulling pain when I moved a certain way. It's not my back (it's just right of center, low down) but maybe that's what you feel?Quote:
