Last night a group of girlfriends and I went to see the movie- The Help. When I went to the bathroom during the movie I noticed some pink spotting. I went back to the movie and tried not to stress about it. Right after the movie was over I went straight to the bathroom again and noticed even more pink spotting. I was crying. I left the theater and called the hubby on the way home and the doc. I went to bed as soon as I got home trying to get my mind off everything. There is nothing we could do about it now anyways. I had no spotting overnight but when I got up- as soon as I stood up - it started again. This time it was more brown. We drove the 45 minutes to the doctors this morning. Ultrasound looked fine and showed baby with heartbeat. ( Doc still wouldn't tell me what it was). It is amazing how much bigger the baby is in just a few days. They said spotting is normal but I should keep off my feet for the next couple of days.
The doctors want me to go ahead and make an ob appointment since it can take a few weeks before they see me. We go back to the re one more time next week (probably friday) and if everything looks good, we are driving up to pittsburgh to tell the hubby's dad the good news...
This truly is God's miracles at work...

Oh wow, how scary! I'm glad your little peanut is ok!!
So glad everything is okay! I came across your blog and had you read this post. The very same thing happend to me at around 10 weeks and I completely freaked out. I had pink and brown spotting one night and then a little more over the next two days. I called the doctor right away the night it happend and went in for an ultrasound in the morning. Everything was fine. The doctor said that it sometimes happens and that they don't know why. She explained that it could be due to growth or stretching and that he cervix is fragile in the first trimester and sometimes we might see a little blood. As long as it isn't bright red, flowing, and accompanied by cramping, she said I should be ok.
I haven't had any more issues since and just hit the 14 week mark today.
I just wanted to reassure you, let you know that even though it is very scary, especially when you've been down a long road to get pregnant, that it can be normal and it sounds like everything is going well for you and your little one!
Keeping you in my thoughts and adding your blog to my list!
I'm so sorry about the spotting scare! But i'm glad baby is ok. And don't wory about the heartbeats. The doctor told me mine and i spent the entire day googling and stressing out trying to figure out why one's heartbeat was lower than the others. I really am going to have to get a grip at some point.
Just relax and enjoy your pregnancy. :)
B- I had a bit of spotting through the first few weeks as well...it is scary but normal! SO glad to hear everything is going well! It is so hard to have faith in the process...but I keep telling myself...don't worry unless there is something to worry about! Hang in there friend!
So glad you got your BFP. I just wanted to give you a heads up, I got my BFP too and am preggo with twins. I have had many episodes of bleeding, once it was 4 days long and could have been mistaken for a period. I have had 3 "extra" ultrasounds as a result, scared me everytime, but everything has been fine and sometimes it just helps to know that it isn't normal but its pretty common. To this day 14w4d preg. I still have (now) brown spotting 1-2 times a week. Good luck. Arica
I had a little spotting too and it ended up being nothing. The important thing is the baby is growing! YAY!!
