    well have had red streaking with my CM today all day and slight cramping (which I thought could be my intolerence to lactose and gluten since I had an overdose of those foods last night and this morning) however I think this bub may not be sticking and could end up a chemical pregnancy boohoo, I'm trying to stay positive but I think I will get AF this weekend and have to begin this whole process again next month. My sister says to just stay strong and listen to what the doc told me, but can't help but worry given what happened to me in August...Im sure you all understand, but am resigned to the fact I'm losing this one too. So not fair....will let you know how I go over the weekend and what the blood test results are.

    Mannie: Stay strong hon. Just remember that bleeding can occur in the first trimester and be perfectly normal. Just look after yourself and your bub and remember we're all here for you!

    Mannie, stay strong and try to remain positive (I know it is hard). My best friend had really bad cramping with her 2nd baby and everything was fine. I have read on every website (and I've read a few) that spotting can be completely normal as well. I know you probably know all of these facts but it is hard to remind yourself of them when you are so scared.

    It's horrible to be going through this though as when it has happened before it is natural to think the worst.

    I will for you and am sending you heaps of

    Make sure you take it easy and get plenty of rest.

    thankyou ladies, I'm just so worried and scared and I know I have to stay strong, I just picked up my blood tests and they are low but its positive 26 u/l which is greater then 2. I'm 18 dpo but I'm 5 weeks according to the doctor so this is low which only makes me think m/c again. I should be between 40 and 2000 at week 4, week 5 they have written down between 400 and 10000! I thought this time would be different, and friends and family told me last time that its common to m/c with your first at my age, so was really hoping this one would stick. I haven't given up all hope yet, will see how I go over the weekend and next week. Even my progesterone is low so not good can only see this going one way again...don't know what I'd do without your support ladies. Thankyou x
