I am pretty sure the fear is gone. But it was in our little house in Brooklyn. Arround 2:30 I started having some spotting. Not ever enough to be on my underwear or a pad but enough to be the red stain of fear when I wiped. The red faded to brown arround 6. I called the RE, and was told that “spotting is not abnormal” and that I could call back if there was more blood or if I was in pain. I am happy to say that I have not had to call back. We are cautiously not stressing out about the bleeding. We will keep you all updated.

fear is sneaky… sorry it got in to your little house in brooklyn
glad you and h have managed to chase it out thus far. hears hoping you see no more spots, though i have heard it is well within normal for a few spots to sneak in now and again.

spotting is always scary but I’m glad you are keeping calm and hope you don’t have anymore to deal with

Oh spotting is so, so mean. Some women have spotting through their whole pregnancies and it doesn’t mean anything. When I had “moderate” bleeding at 10 weeks and went to the ER, every one asked me “do you have cramping and/or clotting?” Thankfully I didn’t, but I learned that these are the real symptoms of concern and bleeding in and of itself was not as much of a concern. I’m proud of you for keeping the fear at bay. (((hugs)))

I’m glad you’re doing your best not to stress out about it but I’m sure it’s really scary. From everything I’ve read (books and blogs), it sounds like a lot of people with healthy pregnancies have spotting. I’m sending lots of good energy your way.

Ugh…any kind of blood is scary, scary, scary. Glad it faded.
yup, another sara // September 29, 2008 at 8:13 pm |
I’m sorry– I know this is scary. But just remember that 50% of women have some spotting during pregnancy. Hang in there.
