princess - I'm sorry you're so stressed. I'll be praying all will be well at your scan, then you can relax and enjoy the rest of the pregnancy.
Thanks Ladies........My spotting had stopped but started again this morning...I will be calling my Dr. in the morning. I just don't know what to think anymore. I hope it is nothing but.....I have a bad feeling these days. Don't mean to be a downer ladies.
Hope everyone else is well.
I'm sure it's hard to think positively with that going on princess, but it may really not be a problem with the baby causing the bleeding. I know your doctor said there was nothing he could do and you were waiting for a scan at the end of the month - but I do hope he'll consider getting you in for a scan now because this is torture for you. More {hugs}
I agree - your doctor should let you get a scan ASAP, especially since you've had a loss before and that makes you more anxious. :HH:
Sorry You're down Princess. ((HUGS))! Is it just light spotting here and there? I had some light spotting at 10 weeks with DS3 and my doc wasn't a bit concerned, especially if there are no bad cramping. Will they at least get you in for a heartbeat check to put your mind at ease? I will be thinking of you. As for movement, I wasn't feeling anything up until just recently and it's only like flutter-like feelings. I was so concerned and my doc said that it's normal and all depends on baby's position and placement of the placenta. but I know how you feel cause I still don't feel the strong kicks I felt with the other three by this time in my pregnancy, and that worries me at times. hope you are feeling better and I'll check in to hear your good news!
Hey ladies - I've now started spotting. Nothing dramatic, but I definitely saw pink when I wiped. I still have a terrible cough, and (TMI) I wet my pants all the time when I have a particularly bad coughing spell. I also have lots and lots of ew-type cm. Could the violent coughing be causing the spotting? I've never spotted in any of my pregnancies, but my midwife at my appointment last week said that spotting when you wipe should never be a big worry - just if you have blood dripping down your legs...so I'm trying not to worry.
I'm starting to get scared here. What started as pink when I wiped is now red and almost heavy as a light period day. I wore a pantiliner to bed last night and it soaked through. I can feel it coming all the time just like a period. I have very slight period-like cramping, but my muscles are so sore from coughing all the time that it could just be that. I just paged my midwife and am waiting to hear back from her.
Oh Mocha how scary, I hope your midwife will get back to you very quickly and that you get some good news very soon.
Meanwhile Iīm thinking of you, hugs :HH:
princess and mocha... Sorry about the issues, I hope everything turns out ok.
My midwife got me an u/s for tomorrow at 8:30am. It's going to be a loooong day. The way she put it, it's just a waiting game at this point. Even if I see a heartbeat tomorrow, if I keep bleeding this much I may still lose the baby. She said the u/s just gives you a snapshot of this moment in time, but I said I still wanted it because if the baby is already gone I want to know so I can start to grieve and move on.
Oh, Mocha, try and rest if you can. I find that resting and doing as little lifting as possible really reduces/slows my spotting. I was filling panty liners with reddish blood before my ultrasound and all was well. Try not to worry, relax and rest. Take care, big hugs.
I just found 2 small blot clots when I wiped - about the size of raisins. I'm also definitely having period-like cramps now. I don't think this is going to end well.
Oh no mocha, I'm so sorry this is happening. I know you're thinking the worst but I'm crossing everything that it'll be fine tomorrow. Remember my sister soaked through 2 sanitary towels in a matter of hours and everything was ok so I'm staying positive for you but sending you so many hugs in the meantime.
Thanks, Z. I've soaked through many pantiliners. I went out and bought some real pads, and hopefully I won't soak through those. The clots scare me, as do the cramps. I've never spotted even a bit in either of my other pregnancies, and that combined with the fact I haven't really had any pregnancy symptoms this time around makes me feel I'm going to hear bad news tomorrow.
I hope with all my heart that you don't hear bad news. I forgot to mention that my sis also had period cramps. I was telling her how sorry I was even before she had her scan! I hope you're able to put your feet up today x
Mocha I hope you hear good news tomorrow. 11wks is long enough to become attached to your little lime. I will keep praying and wishing the best for you.
Oh no! :( I'm so sorry Mocha. You must be so scared:( I do know of many women that go through this and have carried to term. I will be hoping and praying for your little one. Lots of rest, stay hydrated, and tell your baby you need him/her to stay with you, if they can. Lots of love~ xoxo
I just put ds3 down for his nap and I don't have to pick my older boys up from school for 2.5 hours, so I'm going to make some tea, lie down and finish the book I've been reading.
Mocha I am so sorry to hear you are going thru all this! Mine is nothing compared to yours! Thinking of you! :bighug:
I only spot when I wipe and it is pinksish red at first a then dark brown (like old blood) I am still scared but I am trying to stay calm though it all.
I hope everyone else is well!
Mocha, hope ur scan shows that all is well! Glad it's an early scan and ur not waiting all day! Keep us posted, rest and I'm thinking of u. x
Princess, thinking of u too and hope u are resting and ur scan dates flies by..... x
Mocha i really hope everything will be ok :hug2:
Thanks, ladies. The bleeding has almost stopped now - just slight spotting when I wipe. I wonder if the clots this morning were from me overexerting myself hauling groceries, etc.? I'm trying to keep a realistic balance of hope and realism so I won't be floored if I hear bad news tomorrow morning.
Mocha FX the spotting goes away never to return. I really hope all is well!
Mocha--I just got on and I saw your posts. :hugs: So sorry you're going through this. the over exerting can definitely cause the bleeding. :fingers: Fingers Crossed that everything will be fine at your scan tomorrow!
Mocha I am praying for you that tomorrow bring goodnews!!
So I am sitting here reading all the lovely posts and I keep getting a weird feeling down in my lower tummy. It is very faint but it almost feeling like tiny tiny bubbles popping or a tiny thump feeling....it doesn't happen very often. Now the weird part is everytime I feel this sensation it makes me a wee bit nauseous. With all of my pg's when the boys would move it would make me so nauseous......so I am sitting hear wondering if that is what I am really feeling?? I have always felt my boys early on (except Evan) but I always felt them by 16 weeks....I will be 15 in just a few days.....or f you go by the measurement of the baby at 12 weeks...baby measured 12 weeks 4days....I will almost be 16 weeks.
Hi ladies. I'm fairly positive my baby's gone. I was up all night with strong contraction-like pains and bled extremely heavily the whole time, with many many fist-sized clots. My midwife said I might as well just cancel my u/s, but I think I need the closure of seeing that there's nothing in there anymore. I'm feeling numb about the whole thing right now. This is hard after nearly 3 months of pregnancy and being so close to the 12 week point. I really never even imagined I was still at risk. The midwife thinks the baby probably died long ago and is just being expelled now. I guess that might explain why I had no pregnancy symptoms.
OMG Mocha I just read this Im so very sorry for you .I cry now so sad...I think your midwife is right the baby was gone days ago...:sad:
I know exactly how you feel I lost 1 baby at 15 weeks! (it don't help that on the top of that Im thinking it was a boy)
Who would think you loose a baby at 15 weeks right?I was screaming in he hospital I want my baby back...
You are not alone we are all here for you and we have a pregnancy loss forum...
I hope you recover soon and you can try again. I't is hard to think of that now...
Take your time...:bighug::hug2:

Oh Mocha, hun, I got on this am specifically to check on you. I didn't expect this; I too was thinking you were in the clear. I am so sorry this is happening. Big hugs to you love.
I'm so sorry, Mocha.
I just had my u/s - the baby is definitely gone. The sacs still there, though - praying it gets expelled naturally so I won't need a d&c.
Oh Mocha, I canīt believe this, I am so so sorry :HH:
Oh, Mocha...My heart is in my throat. I am just in disbelief and it's like someone just punched me in the stomach and I can't breathe. I am so sorry. Know that you are in my T&Ps. I wish somehow that my words could bring you some peace. :HH:
Oh, no, I'm so so sorry to hear this, Mocha. There are just no words...
Mocha - I'm sat in the car outside the school and I logged in to check on you. I'm devestated for you, I really can't believe it. I don't know what to say, really I don't. I'm sending you so much love at this awful time. I'm so sorry xxx
Oh Mocha :tissue: I just can't believe this is happening to you. I am so sorry you have to go through this pain:( Its just not fair! You are in my thoughts and prayers and I hope you recover and heal, easily and quickly. Tons of love coming your way, M xoxo We are here for you~
Praying for you Mocha.
I'm so sorry Mocha. It is very hard because you fall in love so fast. Wishing for the best in the future!
Thanks everyone for your kind words. I've had several good cries and am trying to look to the future to help myself heal. We're definitely going to TTC again - I'm just trying to decide whether to do it right away or wait a couple of cycles as my midwife recommends (I'm leaning towards waiting for one period before TTC). I'm dreading going on the diet again. I think I'll wait a week or so since I'm sure I'm super low on iron already after all that bleeding, so it's probably not a good time to start starving myself. I'm back up to 123 lbs after being 109 when I conceived (I was 128 pre-diet), so I want to lose some weight before TTC.
Although last night was very traumatic, at least I had a sense it was coming. It would have been worse to go to my 12 week u/s next week with no doubts as to the health of my baby and see no heartbeat. I also feel blessed that I already have 3 beautiful, healthy children. Hugging and cuddling them is helping a lot. :HH:
:sad: Mocha I am so sorry for your loss. I don't have the words, but those of us who have had a loss can relate to your pain. Take time to heal. We are all here for you, thinking of you and your family.
