My plain old run of the mill brown spotting just had a red moment with a little clot in it. This actually happened with Alexander, so I know logically it could still be ok, but I'm still upset by it. It may still be red right now, but I'm trying not to look.
And even though I know this is impossible, I feel like it's because I told people at work today. I was just going off of having a good ultrasound, and I know I should have waited until I was 13 weeks, but I am starting seriously showing. I just kind of wanted to get it out there before it was "discovered," you know? I feel like I jinxed myself.
I also carried a heavy laundry basket up the stairs 2 days ago, so of course I start thinking if I hurt the fetus doing that. Arg, why am i so crazy???
Update: So, I talked with my doctor on the phone, and we decided that I did not have to go in today. It was just that isolated incident (it's been just light brown all day today), and he believes that I probably just irritated my cervix while running around the playground with Alexander. I'm supposed to rest more (is that possible with a 15 month old?) and call if it shows up red again or gets heavy. He also doesn't want to do another internal ultrasound, which may irritate my cervix again, causing me to bleed, causing me to go in again...vicious cycle.
But thanks so much for all the well-wishes and good vibes...I think I kind of panicked last night because not only was it red with that little clot in it, but my H is going away for 5 days. I just had these visions of bad things happening while he is gone and it made me feel scared that I wouldn't be able to handle it on my own. But at least I have you guys! Who wants to come over and spoon me?

I know they will just tell me to go to the er if it gets serious or heavy. I refuse to go to the er unless my head falls off.
I can call my ob tomorrow when I'm at work and he will let me come in after work. I just wish I didn't always have to be a nervous wreck.
