I feel selfish for posting about myself and not responding specifically to your posts. Please know I am keeping up with you all and keeping you in my prayers....all of my new friends!!!
I'm just having a down day, hope you don't mind if I spill a little. All the spotting stopped last night and I was feeling really good! (it's always been brown, no bright red) I went in to work this morning and I had to go #2. I have been taking stool softeners like doc says, so I wasn't straining real hard to go or anything, but after I wiped, I had a thick dark brown discharge, different from what I was having before. I called doc, they said as long as its brown not to worry and they won't see me before August 20. For the rest of the day I've had the lighter brown spotting off and on. It's not constant by any means and I really only get it wheni wipe, nothing noticed any other time really. I want to believe everything is ok because I have no cramping, but it still scares me. We told our family and my mom called to say she already bought us something and my brother and sister in law mailed us a little gift. I think my fear is just having to tell them the worst........ I was telling my husband my fears and said I wished we not told anyone yet. He just said its too late for that. Maybe he's just worried too?? I just keep telling myself the doc said as long as its not regular and not bright red, it's fairly common. Could be the leftover blood from the baby attaching or left over from the ultrasound of after sex or just even from mild straining........ This sounds dumb, but I asked God the other day for a sign everything would be ok, I got home today and had the little package from my brother and sister in law, maybe that's my sign......
Hi!! I just wanted to share that I'm going through something somewhat similar. I've been spotting brown for the past two weeks (with no cramping). I've had two ultrasounds and baby looks great. I was diagnosed with a subchorionic hematoma. Midwife says it happens in about 25% of pregnancies and usually doesn't affect the baby.
I know it's unnerving and somewhat scary to go through this, especially because we can't "see" that everything is ok.
Father God, please be with our sister in her time of need right now. Please hold her womb in your hands and protect her unborn baby. I pray that any spotting she has had will stop, in the name of Jesus. I also pray that all the spotting before would have nothing to do with her precious baby. Lord, thank you for giving our dear sister this baby, and I pray that you would be with her, protect her, and let her give all her troubles and worries straight to You. Thank you for your love and grace. I pray that our sister would feel that right now. In the mighty name of Jesus, Amen.
Thank you so much, brought tears to my eyes. I am trying so hard to turn it all over and let God take it, so hard sometimes......I guess that's part of being human. This is such a great place of support and love and friendship!!!! Amazing!!!!
