Update 2

Sooo...

I don't know what's going on. There has been no more bleeding since what I found yesterday at lunch time. There's been maybe some residual but nothing like what I saw that freaked me out. So that is good. But unfortunately I have had a lot of cramping today. Ranging from mild to moderate.

I went to my OB's office today to get a blood draw for HCG and I'll repeat on Monday so they can determine whether the level is rising appropriately. Did I tell you that they normally don't do an ultrasound until 20 weeks?! I think if my levels are appropriate that I may be demanding one now.

That's all I got for now; just playing the waiting game and hoping it will work out.

  3. Hoping it rises appropriately!! During my urban legend pregnancy my OB gave me u/s because she knew I was totally nervous. She wouldn't do one until 8 weeks though. Hope yours does similar.

  4. Did you ever see an RE? I went there and got monitored instead of the regular OB. They will do it if you have been their patient before.

  5. I know that I'm showing up late to the party...sorry, friend! I know it may hard to accept them now but you have my sincerest congratulations. And of course, my prayers. :) I'm sure you've heard all kind of stories, but I had some random, old-ish looking bleeding with both PJ and W, so try not to fret. Hope to hear very good news from you soon. Take care of you!

  6. That's a wonderful answer to prayer! I hope it was just implantation/break-through bleeding, and that you don't have any more scares.

    I would have gone crazy without at least one ultrasound to confirm a heartbeat! I'm with you on insisting on one around 7 weeks. Try to resist the urge to go too soon.

    I keep you in my prayers!
