@jolydan I think it will always be there, but hopefully a little bit better! I think I will feel 50% better if I can get to an US with a normal heart rate. The chances decrease a lot after you have that.
Update on me. No additional spotting all day yesterday or this morning! Trying to just relax and take it easy again today. I have to say I am stir crazy. I would much rather meet my Dad for a walk with the dogs like I typically do on a Sunday morning!

During my CP, I started to bleed before AF was even due, so I'm excited that I made it longer this time than last. I really hope the stress and anxiety will fade. I see my OB at 9 weeks, and assuming everything is good then, I think that will give me a boost. Seems like an eternity away.
(((Hugs))) i'm going to be pretty MIA today in all likelihood. We have a lot going on (not fun,) but everybody know that I'm sending T&Ps and creepy Internet hugs.
Welcome to all the newbies! Congrats on your BFPs! @MrsBinPA Glad things are looking up today! I hope you get that brunch! @BostonBaby1 Hope everything is okay with you!
Hi ladies: Hope everyone had a good weekend. Just checking in with a question.
Is it weird that I keep poking my boobs to make sure they are still sore as its my one true symptom aside from drinking a ton of water an constantly having to use the bathroom.

Good morning! I just found out last Monday that I am pregnant again after a miscarriage in September. I am 5 weeks today. I went Friday to get blood work done and the doctor said all of my numbers look great. I am going back right now to make sure my HCG has doubled since then. I am a nervous wreck! Each time I feel the slightest cramp I just know I'm miscarryjng again. While I hate that anyone else has to feel the same way, it's comforting seeing others who understand exactly what I'm going through. I'm hoping for good news today and that maybe I can start being excited instead of terrified!

Hi and welcome! I am sorry for your loss. I am also impatiently waiting for my second round of numbers today. FX for you that you doubled nicely!

Good luck, hope everything turns out well! I'm still (impatiently) waiting on my call!
Ladies, how are you all staying positive? Yesterday and this morning I've been struggling. I'm stressing about my US on Thursday. I've had some slight cramping which I know could just be stretching. I've had no bleeding so that's good. I just wish I could snap my fingers and be in the second trimester.
This is my first post after lurking on here for a while! I had a missed miscarriage in May (found out at 6 weeks it stopped developing at 4w1d) and got my BFP on Nov 5. Not sure when I ovulated, so I don't have a good handle on how far I am, which isn't helping me stay calm. My first appointment isn't until Nov 23 and all I can feel is overwhelming anxiety! I wake up in the middle of the night freaking out because my boobs don't seem to hurt anymore, and worry that I am only making myself nauseous from being so anxious. Knowing that I am not alone (and not crazy!) helps though. Just praying to make it to next Monday!
This is my first post too, I'm 4w2d today and I had a miscarriage at 4w6d in Sep. It was a chemical as my hcg levels were low from the start. I'm going to have my first blood test tomorrow and I'm so nervous my hcg is going to be low again. At 4w3d last time (so the same day I will have this first blood test this time) I was only 87 so I'm just hoping its higher than that this time. I'm trying to stay positive but its so hard. I feel like my symptoms are pretty minor (boobs are sore-ish and I'm tired) which makes me think my hcg levels might be low again.... I'm crossing my fingers for all of us and its comforting to know I'm not alone, I also do a few jumps to make sure my boobs are still sore.
@jenjende & @elwood815 welcome!! Sorry that our common losses have brought us together, but glad to have more people for support.
My HCG is in the tens of thousands and my boobs are only sore-ish if it makes you feel any better! I think they were worse 2weeks ago than they are now.
Thank you @MrsBinPA yes the support is great! That is good to hear that you have high hcg but boobs are only sore-ish. I'm assuming that symptoms would be worse with a higher hcg level but I'm beginning to learn that everyone and every pregnancy is different so I cant really assume anything. Thanks for the reassurance! I hope everything goes well with you!
I will be freaking out until my first app on the 23 I will be 7 weeks by then. And then my first US one week later. Had some cramping today which makes me just want to curl in a ball and cry. I'm passed where I MC the first time so I'm trying to be optimistic but it's hard
Had my u/s Tuesday. They found another hemorrhage by the sac but the baby had a heart rate of 150 so I'm happy with that. I'm very sick in every way. But for all you ladies who don't have symptoms and the ones that do. My doc told me that is not a way to tell how your pregnancy is progressing. I had symptoms last time I mc and he told me that my body still thinks I'm pregnant until he takes the baby out. So until you actually mc or have it removed you will have symptoms if you were ever going too. Hope that eases some of you ladies minds. I know it prolly made some worse and I'm sorry for that. Just sharing my docs words.

You don't know how much I needed to read that today. I have been making myself sick worrying because in still pretty symptom-free at five weeks. So happy for you getting to hear a heartbeat, congratulations!
