I feel like I am nervous about potential complications from the subchorionic hematoma (and my miscarriage last yeat)... like I know everything is probably going to be fine, but I hesitate to fully get excited about this pregnancy in case I lose it. Which is ridiculous because worrying does nothing to help and delayed joy and hope don't prevent grief. Tomorrow starts week 12 and I will try to feel more confident.

Can I ask you ladies, has anyone had a routine urine sample test positive for infection but be showing no signs of a UTI? I had a Dr ring and say it was positive for infection and that they wanted to do another test. I dont think I've ever had that in pregnancy before.

With my son I occasionally tested positive with a urine dip test for leukocytes with no symptoms. The leukocytes are usually positive when you have a UTI. It is just saying there are some white cells in your urine fighting something off. Just my experience... Hope you don't have to deal with UTI during pregnancy.

@gafan - oh ok, thanks for letting me know. I had no idea you could have a UTI without symptoms. I will be doing a retest tomorrow and the Dr has given me a script for antibiotics if the test comes back positive again. will see how it all goes.

Also glad to hear your results have come back normal, and my goodness you must have incredible self control to not find out now that the test has been done! I am definitely not as strong as you :P

I had my routine monthly Dr appoint yesterday which was going fine until he decided to try and find bubs heart beat on a portable doppler :( he spent about 5 mins searching all around without any luck, honestly my heart was in my throat the entire time. So when he couldnt find it he pulled out a portable U/S machine and I got to see bub for the first time, thankfully it was moving around lots, and we did see movement with the heart but because the machine doesnt have great quality it wasnt a super clear shot of a strong beating heart. but my goodness, it made me so scared for a second there... seeing bub jump around was the biggest moment of relief ever!!

I also got my Harmony blood test done yesterday, so now I will just have to wait however long until the results come back... I am so scared. Anyone else finding out soon what they are having?

Thanks missiz
I am strong in one way but my decision to wait a couple more weeks was also based on fear that the complications from the subchorionic hematoma would end my pregnancy (not highly likely but possible) and it feels easier not to know the sex until I feel a little more sure there will be a baby this April.

Okay, this answer is going to be wayyyy TMI and gross: but last pregnancy I had to produce a urine sample and I didn't have to pee that badly so I strained a bit to pee, I got the sample and noticed a cloudy chunk in it that looked just like a gob of cm, but I handed the sample in anyway, it came out positive for bacteria, and I explained to my Dr that I think some cm might have gotten into the urine sample, so I took the urine test again this time mid****** with no straining and after I wiped all the cm away from my vaginal opening, and that sample came out negative.

It's a problem for us women that our urinary system which should be sterile is so close to our vagina which is full of healthy bacteria. Add in that pregnancy often creates an abundance of cm that can drop out, and that's a recipe for a faulty positive.

I have no idea why autocorrect put astericts in the word mid-******, like it's a dirty word or something, lol
