Sorry I keep asking... (kinda update) (update again)
Put could I please have some sticky baby dust? For the last two days I have had some cramping that feels stronger than usual and I just had some light pink spotting. This is the first time I have had spotting this whole time and I am now officially freaking out! I called Labor and Delivery nurse and she just said to keep an eye on it and make sure nothing starts to gush. This is my first pregnancy and I have been worried sick! Any dust would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.
Please keep the dust coming, the spotting has not gotten heavier, but it is a dark red now. I called again just to make sure and they just said as long as the pain isn't so bad that I feel I need meds. or that I'm soaking a pad in an hour to just relax and put my feet up.
She also said that at 6 weeks it could be implantation spotting. Has anyone had spotting go from light pink to red and end up with everything ok?
Thanks ladies!
Update: I just got back from the ER, I didn't have a "gush" of blood like I was told to wait for, I still haven't gone through a pad in an hour, and while I am in pain, it's not a pain that I have never felt before. But I am having a miscarriage. They did an ultrasound and couldn't find anything and said my hCG levels were too low. I go to my regular doctor on Monday for a follow up. I could just tell right from the first time I started spotting today that something wasn't right.
Thank you for your thoughts ladies, you were very helpful.

so my loss had nothing to do with my first trimester bleeding-- let me get that out there before I freak you out.
I had lots of spotting in the first tri-- every day it would be there when I would wipe. At one point I felt like I was having a normal period. It was bright red-- occasionally very small clots. But it all turned out to be well. I always wanted to hear of women who had it when it was happening-- it's hard to believe it will be okay. But it will. Are you on progesterone? I always thought the suppositories might have contributed to my bleeding.
Continuing to send you sticky baby dust I know it's hard not to be scared.

Sticky dust headed your way.
For the record, I had the same thing with Andrew and everything was fine. I would ask for an appt on Monday to see dr and check your levels to make you feel better.
Hugs,

Thank you so much for this! I just went to the restroom again and there were some clots. I flipped out and called AGAIN but they still say to just rest and only go to the ER if I have really bad pain for a lot of blood. I am going to call the doctor on Monday to see what they say. Hopefully they can check me out to give me some peace of mind.
I had light pink/red spotting at close to six weeks with DS #1, and then full on bleeding at almost 12 weeks. Little Man is a okay! Sticky dust to you!
