Somebody help me calm my nerves please?

twolverton · January 2012

So I found out last week that we are expecting again and super excited but I'm incredibly nervous. We haven't told anyone yet except immediate family this time around. Every time I feel something down south I get paranoid that I'm going to miscarry. I have my first appt on Thursday which will be 5wks 1day.

Anyway, it's not constant or anything but ever since I found out I occasionally have some CM that's colored, sometimes red but mostly pink or brown. Nothing blood like but more gooey looking... is this normal? I don't remember if I had this when I miscarried back in Sept or if I just started more bleeding like my cycle...

Ugh, I hate this feeling of being on edge constantly! Guess this turned into a worried vent but thanks for reading anyway.

Congrats! When I had my m/c, it was immediately pretty obvious - bright red blood and lots of it. From everything I've heard, what you're experiencing is totally normal. Good luck, and I KNOW it's hard not to worry. I spent the first few months this time running to the bathroom everytime I felt anything. Tongue Tied

Could it be implantation bleeding? Or the implantation bleeding working its way out? Lots of dust that it's nothing serious! After last night, I know how you feel! ((hugs))

like the pp's said, i think it's normal. but of course anything colored makes you nervous, especially with past losses. congrats and lots of sticky baby dust!!

Congratulations! Color isn't always a bad thing. Like PP said, it could be inplantation bleeding, and it could just be normal pregnancy related stuff. **Happy and healthy 9 months!**

Congrats!!!! I had spotting off and on during the first tri with this baby. It made me worry like crazy (how can it not??), but I was always told that unless it's bright red AND you're cramping it's not a problem. I'll be sure to hold lots of good T&Ps for you and your bean. H&H 9 mos to you!!!

Congrats!!! And yes, it can be normal. Hang in there!! fwiw - I bled (red) for a good part of my first tri with our second. Super scary but all turned our ok.

yay congrats! I was always told pink or brown are a-okay red you should call about. Of course you will now hold your toilet paper in all kinds of light to determine the color!

Sticky baby dust.

No advice, but just wanted to say you are in my thoughts and prayers that everything continues to go well! I can relate to being on edge constantly. I keep hoping that once 12 weeks comes I can relax!

Congrats!
