Waiting for the Appointment

Thanks for your words of support from yesterday. I'm feeling quite high strung right now and I don't know why. Couldn't sleep last night, puttering around the house uselessly. The spotting is much lighter now but I noticed a pinkish tinge, very faint, and you had to look it at like you do when you're examining a 9dpo pregnancy test but it was a pinkish tinge, which is said to be a potential sign of amniotic fluid, but I haven't had another contraction since yesterday. I see Dr.MFM at 2pm and I'll bring up all these concerns but I'm scared. My stomach literally feels like its in knots. I will be honest, I don't know if I'm just worrying for nothing, that this is just a symptom of me waiting for the other shoe to drop, or if my fears are justified. I think its just being on the bad side of statistics so often that though the chances are minimal that anything is wrong is enough to make me nervous. Taking deep breaths. Everything will be okay. What will be will be. So far so good.

  6. your fears are totally justified, anytime you see pink or red when your pregnant it's very scary, but it's also normal and while pink could mean fluid it can also mean regular plain old normal spotting, and that's what i think you've got, i think you and your little baby are going to be just fine. good luck, can't wait to hear how the appt goes.

  7. of course you're frightened...rightly so. i'm thinking you're about to go into your appointment right about now....i have no idea how lovenox affects these things, making spotting more common, but that's what i'm hoping is causing these episodes. thinking of you and hoping for good news.
    p.s. sorry i've been mia lately...i'm back now.

  9. Hope this afternoon's appointment went well. I'm convinced sunflower is destined to go the course, though apparently not without scaring you a few times along the way.
