UPDATE: I know Yesterday everything was looking good, but this morning I woke up and it looked like I had my period. And I have cramps, similar to menstrual cramps but more intense. I guess that's it.
OB/GYN said to do hcg anyway next Mon, but I don't have any Hope at this point.
Thanks again for your support, and whish you a serene pregnancy and short and sweet labor.
Yesterday morning I noticed some red spotting. I contacted immediately my OB/GYN, and she said to book an appointment and wait to see what happened during the day. She prescribed some progesterone capsules and I booked an appointment for today. Yesterday afternoon spotting got heavier and bright red and I decided to head to ER. It was quite a sad trip, as I had to go alone as husband had to sit with DD. They found the embryo two weeks behind what I thought, 5 instead of 7, and I don't know why. I have my dates pretty straight. Faint heartbeat, but they say it's normal at 5 weeks. They say It could be implantation spotting, but I can only wait and see. I got a progesterone shot and a prescription for the same capsules my OB/GYN said.
I contacted her and she suggested to test hcg this morning to bring her the result at the visit this afternoon.
I am so scared and hopeless. I had nothing similar during my first pregnancy. I feel guilty maybe I worked too much these last days and it's my fault if the baby doesn't grow. Please send good thoughts. I feel like bursting in tears at any moment...
Re: Trigger warning. UPDATE - I guess I have to say goodbye.
It really is a "wait and see" at this point. It is very hard. I get that.
I also want you to know that if this is not a viable pregnancy (meaning it will end in a miscarriage), there is nothing that you did to cause that and there is nothing that can be done to stop it. When I had my losses (5) progesterone just extended the amount of time until I miscarried. Also, physical activity will not cause you to lose this baby and laying completely still for weeks will not prevent a loss if that is what happens.
If you have any more questions. Feel free to PM me. I'm happy to answer.
I sincerely pray that all is well with your little one and that the wait goes by quickly for you.

@mrsp85, hugs, and hope it goes well for you.
I've had some moments of guilt and blaming myself too. (for going on a mission trip while pregnant. Maybe all the walking and little sleep caused it?) I know that's not real though. Early miscarriages are usually a chromosomal abnormality. Let's try to push those guilty fears out of our heads!
T&P for all of our babies to grow and stick.
Hugs mommas.
I've been referred to the Early Pregnancy Unit but they can't get me in for a scan until Tuesday. However this morning I have woken up and passed some clots so it's not looking good for me. Pretty devestated as it's my first and we'd been struggling to conceive for over a year. That's life though I suppose.
Still sending you positive vibes @chirico3. The fact there is a heartbeat sounds pretty positive xx
