Here we go again

I've been having some mild cramping since last night.  I just went to the bathroom and I'm having some light spotting.

This happened about 3 weeks ago and everything was fine so I'm trying to stay calm.

If it gets worse I'll call the doctor.

Hopefully, it is nothing and goes away quickly. I'm you everything is fine, but I know that must be so scary.

Thanks Laura.  I called my doctor's office to let them know what was going on.  The nurse will call me back.

Sorry!  That is scary, no matter how many times you go through it.  Try to relax and put your feet up.  Please keep us informed. T&P are with you!

I am sorry you are dealing with this. It's good that you are calling your doctor for reassurance. Sending good thoughts.

While it may be nothing, listen to your body. Call the nurse at your doctor's office. They may tell you to just take it easy and watch for additional symptoms. Or, they may want to see you.

I had light spotting and mild cramping with my last pregnancy around 12 weeks. Fortunately it was nothing. I can relate to you being scared.

Please keep us posted! Good luck!

 

**sorry, just saw that you did call the office. I'm so glad you did!**

Shannon - you are right at the point where I had spotting/cramping too (12w/5d).  All was fine.  I've had spotting a couple other times throughout the pregnancy and baby girl is okay.  It's scary and frustrating, but it can happen and not mean anything is wrong.  I've been put on "pelvic rest" a couple times - last time they checked to make sure I didn't have an infection (which I didn't).  It seems I'm just one of those women that has an extrememly vascular cervix.

Aw Shannon.. that sucks!   You may just be one of "those women" who bleeds and spots throughout.   Let's hope not, but it does happen.

I hope you got some reassurance?

Hope everything went well with the ultrasound.  Sometimes cramping is caused by being dehydrated.  Make sure you are drinking tons of fluids all the time....
