Hello, all. I am 5 weeks along today.
Little background, I have 3 kids ages 13, 10, and 7. I got pregnant with super quick but this pregnancy took 13/14 cycles. We took an 8-9 month break because it was giving me bad anxiety. So all in all it has been almost 2 yrs, but just including the actual months of trying this was the 13th or 14th cycle. I did not test until I was 19 dpo ( confirmed with ovulation tests) because I was so nervous about testing and getting another negative test. For me personally, it is much easier to just start my period than to get negative tests. I finally tested because it was starting to drive me crazy not knowing and it was positive within 10 seconds. It still does not seem real at all since it took so long this time.
Last night before bed I had some pink spotting which scared me so much! I dont know how I can deal having a miscarriage after trying for so long. I am 35 yrs old so I fear it will just get harder and harder to get pregnant if I do miscarry.
I was planning on getting my beta's taken this morning, but it's Memorial Day here in the U.S. so everything is closed. Now, I guess it's just a waiting game.
Anyone else have spotting at 5 weeks and everything was okay? It cant be implantation since I am a week past my expected period
Thank you!
