And now my turn for spotting/cramping

The past few hours, I've had an increase in cramping and just now some brown spotting on the tp. I know brown could be ok, but I'm still stressing. Ugh. I'm going to call tomorrow and see if I can move my beta up a couple days and just pray that this is 'normal' although it hasn't ever ended up being normal for me before. Any spare good thoughts/vibes/prayers appreciated.

    Ugh, how stressful!  FWIW, the morning I got my first BFP,  after collecting my urine sample for the test, I had brown blood when I wiped, and it lasted at least a couple days, and I had one little bit of red blood.  Flash forward from that first day of spotting and I am now just past 11 weeks pregnant. 

    Have you been doing any heavy lifting lately?  Your LO counts.  My RE figured it was from me picking up DD and walking around with her too much, that maybe I had an SCH. 

    FX for you and jeanna that these are strong BFPs and sticky babies to follow!

    nawlins, I hope you're right. I have been home alone with DD all weekend with DH out of town. Maybe ive been over doing it. Thanks for your positive story; I can't believe you're already past 11 weeks!

    It really didn't take much in my case either.  I told DH I wasn't supposed to lift much, especially anything over (I think) 10 lbs, and DD was probably a good 15 lb. by then. 

    Once I went ballistic on DH because I was terrified something was wrong, I pretty much only lifted her to take her out of her crib in the morning (DH truly is not a morning person).  

    So, I advise, once YH returns (if he hasn't already), impart on him the same thing, that you really need him to help when it comes to lifting anything remotely heavy.  It took a couple of days before it stopped, so don't freak out if it doesn't stop immediately, but so long as it's just when you wipe, and you keep getting BFPs, (easier said then done, having been there myself) do your best to relax and stay positive.
