Tomorrow I will be 6 week pregnant with baby #3. I am 26 years old. About this time when I was pregnant with my second I started bleeding and was told I was having a threatened miscarriage. I continued to spot for a couple of weeks. If finally stopped and my hubby and I could finally breathe a sigh of relief. But then the morning sickness started. But not just in the morning but all day. I could not keep anything down. Then at 13 weeks I woke up to about a cup and a half of blood gushing down my leg. I was so scared and knew that I was losing the baby. We rushed to the hospital and I was able to see the baby over an ultrasound. The baby was fine but I had a tear in my placenta. They sent us home with the news that we had a 50% chance that the baby would make it. I was so scared and had no idea how we were going to tell our 4 year old girl!! I ended up not losing the baby! The entire pregnancy I was extremely sick. I had to go to the hospital at least once a week for fluids. I literally hated food! I only gained 15 pounds but had a beautiful baby girl at 37 weeks when my water broke. (It was so worth it!!!) Anyone else go thru something similar and had a better pregnancy the 3rd time around?
I'm sorry this is so lengthy! ;;)

My biggest fear with this pregnancy is that I will go into preterm labor and not realize it until it is too late.
