Hi everyone. Thanks so much for your concern & support
I had a scan yesterday and baby is all good and growing, moving around etc. Bleeding slowed down the same day it started, and has now stopped. It was bright red blood and probably filled about a pads worth (yuk). Dr was unable to ascertain where the blood came from. He's keeping me on the Crinone for a few more weeks - which I hate! Feels like the evil Crinone makes the symptoms so much worse..............
So I have my nuchal scan next Tuesday which is the next step along this never ending waiting game!!!
I agree, bleeding is so scary and on a weekend!!! At least I had no cramping which is apparently a positive.
that's exactly the post i was waiting for mindhugs!!! so maybe it was just one of those crazy preggy things eh? let's hope there's no more and it's all smooth sailing from here!
mindhugs- thrilled to hear your good news!!! what a relief for you. I really hope all goes well with your scan next week...mine is happening next wednesday, so we are around the same stage. I hope we both sail smoothly into the second tri and this is our time! xx
Mindhugs - great news, so relieved to hear it. I had 4 weeks of bleeding in my first tri (light pink), and a threatened molar pregnancy. It was awful. GL for nuchal scan.
Possums, GL to you too for next Wednesday.
Lairdoz, great news about the dilation and hope baby's on the way, if not here already.
AFM, I'll sign off because the numb fingers are just nasty to type with. Yes, I have become officially dissociated from my hands! I am not at the level of 127 Hours yet (I think that's what it's called - the film about the guy who saws his arm off to escape from a mountain nightmare) but getting there! My two SILs have given birth and now all eyes are on us. I feel a bit anxious and pressured, to be honest, even though I'm only 1 day past the official due date. I've had loads of lower pelvic pain & back pain, but really sharp & sudden and seemingly not really BH contractions or anything, more just like the baby grinding into the bladder/bowel, enough to take my breath away and cause me to break out in a sweat. Will keep everyone posted if/when bubs arrives.
ww - go you good thing! thinking of you and lairdoz. maybe try some meditation or visulation? might help you focus and cut out that pressure. don't worry about anyone else this is your moment and your bub will come when it's ready, not when it suits the family! fingers crossed it's soon!! and your hand recover lol for heaven's sake don't cut em off! how will you change pooey nappies!!! lol.
possums i love what you wrote "this is our time". gave me goosebumps!
