Announcing pregnancy and trying to keep calm
By 1stbabylogan » Posted Apr. 18, 2014 2:35pm - 266 views - 0 comments

So according to the new due date my doctor gave me I am 15 weeks and 1 day pregnant. This is fantastic! Now if only I could calm down and enjoy.
It started at about 9 weeks. I started spotting. At first it was just brown, but then I passed 2 tiny red clots. My doctor sent me for an ultrasound. Everything was fine! The baby was wiggling around, my cervix was closed and they couldn't find a reason for the spotting. After about 2 weeks it cleared up. Then I went back at about 12 and a half weeks for my nt testing. Once again everything was fine. Went to the doctor for my 13 week check up. She did a quick US because she was afraid the doppler wouldn't work yet. The baby was still fine. After my husband and I left the doctor we went to the grocery store. With all the morning sickness, food stores are a little tough for me. I started gagging which made me have a massive coughing fit. When we got home and I used the restroom I was spotting pinkish reddish blood. I started crying, put in a pad, called the on call doctor and laid down. When I went to the bathroom again a half hour later there was only a tiny bit of brown when I wiped, and by the time the on call doctor called me that night it was gone. The doctor told me everything was probably fine and since we had just seen the baby that day we shouldn't worry. Just rest and call my doctor on Monday. There was no spotting over the weekend and when I talked to my doctors nurse on Monday she told me not to worry.
Now this weekend we are suppose to announce our pregnancy to our family and make it facebook official. But I still just feel so scared. I wonder when I will calm down and accept the fact that i am pregnant.
End vent.
