Appts? Updates? Had an appt. Yesterday to check on my bleeding. Got put on pelvic and partial bed rest. Had an abnormal pap smear and she wants to do a colposcopy. So know I'm trying to decide if I want it don't now and risk the pregnancy or wait til after I have him/her
@RedCherry1109 don't stress about the colposcopy. All they do during that is put vinegar on your cervix and look at it under a microscope to see the affected areas. They may or may not do a biopsy based on what they see. If they do a biopsy you will bleed some but it's also totally safe during pregnancy. The thing you can't have done during pregnancy is a LEEP. I have had it all done. If be happy to tell you more about my experience with it all (been dealing with it for 9 years now) if you would like.
@Bleachy14 sorry it took your dr a whole week to tell you about the UTI. Hopefully the antibiotics get rid of it and you don't get anymore during your pregnancy.
How are you feeling? Feeling tired most days but can make it through. Total real good adversion most days. Gosh i was so good about pushing healthy eating with my first. Now all i want is candy or gum.
Appts? Updates? Had my 1st dating ultra sound yesterday. Baby is looking good. OB kind of annoyed me. One of my labs came back on the high end of normal and they suggested i take more blood work. I went ahead and took the tests. However i feel i should have stood my ground and suggested i wait until my 3 month apt. Next apt 12/3.

@RedCherry1109 - sorry about the colpo- but like @riansmommie said- the colpo in itself is not risky at all. I had to have one during both of my pregnancies and biopsies as well. I know my doctor said she did not love the idea of doing biopsies while pregnant, but they only took very small samples and it was just to ensure it was not cancerous- which would have changed the course of the pregnancy (delivered early to start treatment earlier). I've also been dealing with this forever- so I know how annoying/nerve wracking it can be. Hugs!
@riansmommie and @megaroo64. Thanks for the info. I talked about it on other boards and they said not to do the biopsy cause it can make you cervix week. That part scared me the most. I've never even heard of it before but since this is my first pap smear that came back like this plus having a cyst on my cervix. I guess she wants to make sure everything is okay.

I would definitely talk to your doctor about it. But you can absolutely waive the biopsy! Honestly, the only reason I agreed to the biopsy is because it would have changed how we managed the pregnancy to deal with another issue. If no matter what they aren't going to do anything different until after the baby is born, I would have totally waited.
@RedCherry1109 a biopsy won't weaken your cervix. The amount they would remove during a biopsy is just big enough (read only a couple millimeters big) to run tests to make sure it's not cancerous. It's the LEEP that weakens your cervix.
How are you feeling? Major migraines but slowly starting to get more energy back
Appts? Updates? I had another ultrasound last Wednesday and everything looked amazing. I have my 12 week with my OB the week of Thanksgiving as well as NT Scan with a Perinatologist that week to clear me from high risk or not
How are you feeling? Exhausted and frustrated with work. The girl who initially contacted me about doing my maternity sub job went back to school full time this fall and just didn't bother to tell me. Not to mention that it shouldn't even be my job to arrange for my sub.
Appts? Updates? Just got back from the doc. BabyGirl appears to be head down again for the moment! Also that was the fastest appointment ever- in and out in 10 mins, and I even got my TDAP.
@vitafelix sorry to hear about your sub situation. Hopefully that gets resolved quickly. Also yay for baby girl being head down!!! FX she stays that way now.
I hope everyone starts to feel better and pass all the tests! @Mommycoffee I'm sorry you have to deal with a crummy SH on top of everything else. Hope you can find a way to de-stress!
@mcbush can i ask what was wrong or suppose to be wrong with your thyroid. My ob retest my t3/t4 because she thought i was on the higher end of normal. Waiting for results anyday now.
