I woke up in the middle of the night to pee and noticed some light pink bleeding. I was worried, but trying not to stress to much at 2am, and went back to bed. When I woke up this morning it was worse. Red. Not gushing out or anything, but enough to terrify me. Called the doctor and they had me come in right away. I couldn't stop crying, and my fiance was at work so he wasn't with me.
At the doctor, they checked everything and thank goodness, everything looks great. Not sure what caused the minor bleeding, they want me to take it easy for a few days (not that I dont take it easy in the first place), but the heartbeat was great, my cervix was nice and closed and they gave me an ultrasound and the baby and my placenta look fabulous.
Because I got this random ultrasound, I actually was able to find out the sex. Given how terrified I was just about the health and wellbeing, it actually ended up being way less of a big deal than I thought it would be. I have been wanting and thinking and hoping for a boy, but...
ITS 100% GIRL!!!! The context of the situation made me not care at all. Not even a bit disappointed, maybe a wee bit surprised, but definately not disappointed. Im just so happy shes okay. And daddy couldnt be happier either, he wanted a girl sooooo bad.
Re: What an emotional morning....
Our precious girl, born at 27 weeks.
Baby #2 on the way!
I'd be drained after a morning like that. Rest up today, mama. Sounds like everything is ok. But what a scare! *Hugs*
ETA: And congratulations on finding out it's a little girl!
