11 weeks and spotting

**Evie76** · April 27th, 2008, 12:28 PM

HI Kim

You're the exact reason I came on today. I was going to post EXACTLY the same thing - even down to the country town thing.

I'm spotting too and am worried, but have heard that it is normal. It's not blood, just (TMI) kind of brown - evidently dead blood cells.

I feel fine in every other way. I am going to the dr on Friday and thought I would just leave it until then. I am very glad you posted.

Like others have said - it is very common, but I didn't have it all with Daniel.

Lestypuss, hang in there chick. I'm sorry that's happening to you, but I'm sorta heartened that i'm not on my own.

Kim, first of all

. I know how scary this is. I had some spotting start when pg with Lily at about 9wks for about 2 wks, with some cramping. I was scared $hitless. With my 2 prior pg I had the same thing. And it just makes you analise every pg symptom even more. But it was all fine after those 2 wks and now I have a little terror to drive me insane everyday (LOL!!). As others have said it is common, but being a nurse I'm sure you know that. If it gets worse or the cramping starts to get ouchy, go to your closest hospital. It must be hard being in the sticks. Tyr to keep busy, but not too active to keep your mind occupied.

Oh Kim, I am thinking of you. I wish there was something I could do.

Lestypuss, I'm thinking of you too.

Warm and gentle hugs to both of you

I have had spotting 3 times thu far. Firstly when AF was due I had brown spotting for over a week, then again at around 6 weeks, then I had a medium bleed last week. After my Ultra Sound last Friday everything is fine. I hope this gives you confidence that all can be okay.

Thankyou all so so much. I know why I love this site, and you guys are really helping.

Hello again, Kim! Hope you're camping in the lounge with a big blanket and a good dvd. It's turned cold quickly, hasn't it! Are you resting? Get a pizza or some pasta delivered from Il Corso and don't lift a finger this evening. How's the Dragon going?
Hope the spotting's stopped for you. Thinking of you!!

Kim, I nearly died when I read that you had spotting. I am

everything is ok for you. To tell you the truth I don't have any symptoms anymore either. I was thinking to myself before that I don't even feel pregnant anymore.

it's coz we're getting closer to the end of the 1st trimester and it's just normal for symptoms to disappear.

I really hope the spotting is nothing and it goes away soon. I know you will be, but try and take it easy (well as easy as you can when you have Darcy to look after).

Please keep us updated on how you get on, I will be thinking of you. They may send you for your scan this week instead.

Kerry, I have been on the lounge with a blanket - and the Dora DVD, but cant complain as Darcy has been a fantastic little soul today. SHe has mothered me, pulled my blanket up, patted my back, stroked my face. She's played by herslef all day and hasn't been a trouble at all. We did have to go out before (in the rain no less - it hasn't rained for over 4 months) and she climbed up into her seat and down by herself too.

lol Leigh, i nearly died too.

**Epacris** · April 27th, 2008, 03:30 PM

Thinking of you and sending you all the positive vibes I possibly can.

**Snoopea** · April 28th, 2008, 12:00 PM

Kim, Just wanted to let you know I'm thinking of you and hoping all is going well!

I've got my fingers crossed for you!

I didn't cry in my ultrasound. I felt like i was safe and I knew there were meany people's thoughts thinking positively for us. However, wasn't meant to be and my bub was found to have passed roughly three weeks ago.
Will book in for a D&C later this week.

Thankyou all again.
