I've stayed away from here for a little bit...Here's the update. On the 20th, I hurt my back doing nothing that was strenuous what so ever. Hurt to point of in tears and walking hunched over an in pain. Base ER doc sent me home with motrin after I told him I was pregnant. My friend had driven me. When my husband got home, he was pissed and took me back. They put me on quarters for 2 days (no work) and gave me flexeril and tylenol. That was Monday--fast forward to Thursday. I had taken the rest of week for leave because the pain was too much. About mid afternoon, I noticed pinkish CM with a couple red spots in it. It never turned red or anything but I called the nurse who told me to take it easy and push lots of fluids. Friday I had to return to the hospital for a follow up for my back. I convinced the women's health clinic to fit me in for a scan. I measured at 6w5d even though I should have been at 7w3d. Doc said I was still within the normal range. They couldn't tell much, just that it was in the right place. I had labs drawn and I have another scan and labs next Friday. I had stopped temping the week before since i was off. My plan had been to temp until 12 weeks because of the miscarriage I had in 2012. So, I've been spotting since Thursday and my temps have been decreasing for 4 days now. My bbs no longer feel sore and I haven't been getting up to to go pee during the night...I really feel like I'm going to miscarry. I know that Ive read that many women spot and all that but this is so similar to last time, it's scary. I spotted, and the doctors said I was ok, although measuring small. They saw the heartbeat anda week later I miscarried. This really sucks.

 | Comment from arh1116 » Posted Jan. 28, 2014 5:09pm Thanks Eluria, I hope that is the case with me. I'm nervous of that too, since I don't have cramping. Just tiny bit of spotting and a perceived loss of some symptoms...But I could be psyching myself out too. |
 | Comment from Eluria88 » Posted Jan. 28, 2014 2:38pm I was supposed to be 7w4d and measured 6w6d, but so far everything has been fine for me i'm 9w now. Some babies are small and some are big, eventually my doctor said it may even out and be where my ovulation claims it should be. It's hard not to be nervous though, im terrified since I had no cramping or bleeding, my baby just died and i had no idea. I hope this one sticks and I hope yours is going to be ok! |
