    Wink Obsess with me?

    photo(115).jpgYesterday I got two nice bfp's at about 14dpo I believe. I have labelled them I usually get my period at around 9dpo. The only time I don't is when I am pregnant.

    Today I had some brown cm (scant) so I decided to test again and got number 3! I freaked out because it is heaps lighter than 1 & 2, decided to hold my pee for a few hours (knowing that when I first tested today I had been drinking & peeing heaps already) and I got number 4, which was better but still not quite as dark as 1 or 2.

    1 & 2 were taken within minutes of each other, none of the tests I have done have been with fmu.

    ANyway.. to complicate things further I decided to check my cervix and internally for any bleeding, I wanted to be hygienic and avoid any scratches or anything so I used a tampon & when I pulled it out there was a tiny amount of darker cm on it, more bloody than the first cm when I wiped. Since then (around 9.30) this morning I have had nothing on wiping or liner etc.

    we have been trying since 2008, and have to mc under our belt already so obviously my crazy is a bit more psycho than the average bear!

    I was going to wait to see what happened with the bleeding in the next day or two before going and getting some hcgs done. I am not in a rush to go in there because I don't want to waste anyone's time if mc is inevitable anyway.

    But what do you all think? Should I be freaking out as much as I am? I don't know what the normal reaction would be?

    Thanks in advance!

    Obsess with me?

    I think a bit if spotting is ok thus early with implantation and what not but those tests all look nice and dark for this stage too mayby going to dr would be good to get bloods and also if you do have miscarriages they can check your progesterone and stuff so you have a lower chance of miscarrying if that was the cause your not wasting anyone's time it's there job

    Oxo I hope all goes well and congratulations!!!! ill be watching and waiting

    Spotting is ok and normal. I think all you can do is wait. Stressing and obsessing is not going to help. I know it is almost impossible not to though. Your BFP's all look good and strong. I would stop checking your cervix though, 'cause you will likely agitate things and might bring on more spotting than you already have naturally. Good luck hun.

    They look good to me too I had some spotting on and off early on with this pg and I'm now nearly 16 weeks, with my first pg I had 2 bleeds like a period so I didn't even know I was pg until I was already 3 months! So try not to worry too much.

    Hi hunny, those tests look great!

    Well pretty much I went through the same as you in the first few weeks. Up to about 8-9 weeks I had brown CM that worried the heck out of me.
    I also even checked with a tampon as I was too scared damage anything.
    I had a scan at 7 weeks and everything was fine.

    With the hpt I also had panic attacks when one was lighter than the first. With the first response I found FMU not to be so great but just before lunch I got darker lines

    I will be thinking of you maybe! Xxx

    Obsess with me?

    They look good to me and the dye in the tests can fluctuate. I would avoid any more cervix checking if it was me as your cervix can change so much and I think a bt would be a better way to find out what's going on.

    Goodluck x

    HI Maybe... I think 4 looks the same as 1 and 2. I know how anxious you feel, having just been through all of this myself. I found it really helped not to obsess over it every single minute like I did my two MC's and I really felt it was much easier this time to get to 8 weeks. I have still not had any bloods done, but I had an ultrasound at 8weeks.

    I agree with the others about staying away from the cervix checking. Is there anything that can help you relax??

    Thank you everyone! I really appreciate it!

    I have no idea LBB re relaxing, I think it just comes with the territory. I'm trying to just carry on as normal but when it's all you've ever wanted and it's so close but so far I'm finding it hard to think of anything else
