I know I shouldn't use this to monitor anything, but it still freaks my PGAL brain out when my resting heart rate is high at 79 for several days and then declines for several days. A few days ago it dropped to 78, then to 77, then this morning it dropped to 75. My PGAL brain is an irrational force.
When I got up from bed this morning, I had a little gush and enough clear, odorless liquid to make my inner thighs wet...it freaked me out, but there was no blood, so I'm guessing I just peed myself a bit? I hope.....I even do keigels sometimes...maybe it's time to up the consistency there!
That's very strange.... I really hope it is just pee! Are you going to go see your doctor just in case?

That happened to me.....a lot.....when I was pregnant with DD. TBH, it was when I was much further along (at least 20-25 weeks), but I would regularly soak through my underwear. More than once, it was actually running down my legs.....I hated it because I always felt sticky and gross and, well, like I peed myself. I think sometimes it was discharge, sometimes it may have been pee. Who knows? But DD was perfectly healthy and I had no complications. Just had to wear pads all the time and carry dry underwear with me.
@daniellelynette if it keeps happening, maybe, but I googled it and it said clear watery discharge is normal during pregnancy, so I'm not freaking out yet.
@sarahufl thanks for the personal anecdote, that is helpful

Well...I woke up at 4:30a to pee and saw bright red blood. Was enough to have a drop hit my bathroom rug. I put on a larger pad and crawled back into bed and have had some light cramping. I googled "bleeding after cvs" but I'm pretty sure that's not what this is as today will mark four days since the test AND it was trans abdominal. The transcervical causes more spotting. Anyway...I was up and down checking...seems to have subsided. Wasn't heavy but definitely wasn't "spotting" either. Woke my hubby and said I need to call doc in the morning because I'm bleeding and he said ok but I think was groggy and fell back asleep. I kind of lost my shit...not from that...just emotions...so now I'm lying here in the dark totally In my head and crying/stuffed up. Sorry to unload but I needed to type it out because I obviously can't sleep. My FISH results should be in today re: trisomies. Not sure if bleeding is a blessing in disguise or punishment for discussing termination...im SUPER freaked out about miscarrying at home at 13 weeks!!! Like WTAF...wish I could fast forward and it'd magically be Easter or something and all was right with my world... Calling doc when they open in a couple hours...
@Texafornian This is not a punishment of any kind! Please try not to feel that way, it will drive you insane. I spent weeks thinking I miscarrried because I'm pro choice. To everyone else it made zero sense but I was convinced it was a punishment from God.
I am so sorry you are going through this, and I definitely understand the terror of miscarrying naturally at 13 weeks. Hopefully your Dr will get you in ASAP!
@Texafornian Hugs! No matter what's happening, this is not a punishment!! I hope your doctor can get you in quickly this morning so you have more information about what's going on. Girl, I wish we could all snuggle up together in warm blankets and help you through this!

@Texafornian ditto what the other girls said. This is not punishment. Please don't beat yourself up right now. You have a lot of information to process and debating your options is perfectly acceptable.
I hope your doctor gets you in asap today! Keep us updated!
Sooo...I texted the physicians assistant to find out if I was supposed to call them or the high risk. Then my OBs nurse called...FISH results show positive for T21. She asked if we had been talked to about all of our options and I said no but we have an inkling of how we are leaning at this point. I told her of the bleed...of COURSE my doc is out of the office so she got me in with another doc in an hour (on way there now). Was told to try and get into the high risk due to them having done the cvs...they called back and THAT doctor is also out of the office but in the hospital. So I'm heading in to see this random doc... the FIFTH ONE IVE SEEN (My OB, radiologist, 2 high risk docs and now this OB). If this doc sees issues pertaining to my cvs then they're to page my high risk doc. Sigh. This is Sssssooooooo messed up. Will update y'all after appt.
@texafornian I'm so sorry I hope you know deep down that none of this is punishment. It's so hard to separate emotion from reason when you're in the middle of a hard time, but I do not believe that it is a punishment. A burden, yes, but not a punishment. I'll be checking back for your update and I really hope you're well taken care of and do t keep bouncing from doctor to doctor.

@lahearn18 I saw in the other thread you said you're most likely going to Japan..( I hated to hijack her thread, lol) Is that what it's looking like? When will y'all know for sure?
Update... Saw the OB...heard the heartbeat. She said I could be starting the miscarriage process based on my other results etc. We then went and saw another doctor who performs the D&Cs when still a heartbeat. At first I was horrified...it was a tiny office, they can submit to insurance but most don't accept it because this is considered "elective." I had an ultrasound and this doctor immediately said, "oh boy..." I asked what he saw and he said that this baby has severe Hydrops...pretty enveloped in fluid. The Downs is totally secondary...baby won't survive the Hydrops. He said he can say with 99.9% certainty that this baby won't make it to term...not with the Hydrops this early in the pregnancy. Also said I'm making the right decision as it would be far harder weeks from now not to mention it can cause complications for me. I saw the baby on the ultrasound as well... I feel much more at peace knowing that I've done EVERYTHING humanly possible on behalf of this baby and for my family. It's not my fault. I'm scheduled for a D&C tomorrow...sadly I don't get to be put under as Texas law doesn't allow for that when "elective." I'll be heavily sedated/sleepy and shouldn't remember much. I've already had floaters put in that remain over night. Tomorrow I have four things to take for infection, pain, and to start contractions. I don't wish this on ANYONE...I feel better though having sat down with this doc for a half hour. He was kind, thorough, sympathetic..,he told me I can have wine tonight. So I'm gonna... Ive also put in a call to the high risk doc to find out the sex...I didn't want to know but now I do since it's all kind of out of my hands and I didn't get to know last time because I miscarried at 8wk. Im also donating blood for a study...the Panorama test people are trying to develop there genetics test to be diagnostic at 10wks instead of women being put through this anguish...I was like, I'm IN! Take some...if it helps alleviate this pain for ladies on the future it's a no brainer...
ok...all for now...just wanted to update. Will pop in later... ❤ Thank you so much for all of your kind words...
@HollyGolightly09 there are less options this month than last month and Japan is starting to look like a feasible option. DH is going to make a few calls but otherwise we submitt our choices at the end of the week and find out in a few weeks after what our fate is. But he is up for promotion and we find out those results in August and will change the orders again if he gets a promotion lol
@Texafornian Oh, my friend, I am beyond heartbroken for you. You did the absolute best for your baby. Definitely, drink some wine, and be kind to yourself. I'll be think and praying for you all day. (((BIG hugs)))
@Texafornian thank you for the update. Your strength is amazing! I know this has to be so hard for you, but it seems like your heart is at ease knowing what needs to be done. I am glad you were able to get clear answers. Will be praying for you tomorrow.
@Texafornian Big hugs! I had "conscious sedation" for my D&C in the summer and I don't remember anything and there was no pain. Obviously not a pleasant experience but I bounced back more quickly than I would have under general.
I'm so sorry this was the result but I'm glad you got some answers and can be at peace with your decision. You've got support here for whatever you need!
@Texafornian I'm so sorry you're going through this. I admire your strength so much. I'm happy you are no longer in limbo land and I hope you can find some peace after this all. Sending you my love. xoxo
@Texafornian I'm so sorry you are going through this and this was the result. I'm glad you were able to get some solid answers and have a caring doctor during that process. You are so strong. My thoughts and prayers will be with you tomorrow. So many hugs to you.
@Texafornian, I am so incredibly sorry you are going through this. I will definitely be praying for you and your family. Also, Reya is a beautiful name.
@Texafornian Praying so hard for you and DH that y'all are able to have peace with this. I'm glad you at least feel like you have done everything you can (and you absolutely have!)
@Texafornian I've had you in my thoughts ever since your NT scan. I know this is extremely difficult to go through and no one should ever have to experience this. Sending you all of the hugs! I will be praying for you and your family!
@Texafornian my heart is so broken for you and your family. Reya is such a beautiful name. I am so sorry you are going through this, I will be thinking about you and praying for you, I wish I could give you a big giant hug but I know even that wouldn't be enough.

Oh okay. I don't know how you handle all the uncertainty... guess it's just something you have to get used to. Hopefully he gets assigned somewhere y'all feel at least somewhat okay about!
