Hi girls, thanks for being so supportive, alas I'm officially out. It took the long weekend for me to deal with it, but I think I have my head together now. It's the best of a bad situation. Doctor says all tissue has passed and my uterine lining is thin and looks good. My ovaries look super healthy with lots of follicles. After my next spontaneous period I'm good to try again. Bleeding should taper off within the week.

My husband, daughter and I baked a Goodbye Baby Cake and had a lot of family time. we explained to her that the baby was going away for a while but hopefully they would decide to come back soon. (Then we put the kiddo to bed and cracked a bottle of wine!)

The day I told my best friend, I found out they were losing their 13 week pregnancy. I think my loss really helped her open up and talk about hers. She doesn't have many people she could talk to about it. In a way I feel like God may have given me something he knew I was capable of handling so I would be in position to help someone who was about to have a much harder time. we're leaning on each other and hopefully in a few months we both be beginning all over again.

Thanks again for being so sweet girls. H&H 9 months!! (or 7/8 now!! Go May Babies!)

Oh wow... Words can't express how sorry I am. You are an amazingly strong woman and an amazing friend to be able to turn this into such a positive situation and help your friend through her grief. Although the situation is not one any of us ever wishes to be in, I can only pray that if I am faced with this, I can be as strong as you. You are definately an inspiration to the rest of us!:hugs:

Take care of yourself (and your friend) and I will be thinking of you & keeping my fxed that your sticky bean is just around the corner....

I want to tell myself that i'm pregnant. I'm taking the prenatals and starting to eat healthier (even though we already do). I am getting lines on HPTs, but they are light still. I figured they would be getting darker by now. I just really feel like i'm setting myself up for disappointment.

The first one was basically non existent (not fmu), then it got a little darker with FMU, but now (not fmu) it's as dark as the FMU tests, but not darker. I was hoping it would have gotten darker regardless of time I took it.

Should I not worry myself? I have a beta test tomorrow. So that will be definitive. I just wish I wasn't so concerned about it to begin with.
 
Casey, if you are getting two lines I'd say you are definately pregnant :) don't worry yourself tonight, you have a beta tomorrow and that will come before you know it!

Ladies... are pretty bad period like cramping something to worry about? No bleeding at all, just these HORRID period feeling cramps. Feels like my uterus area is getting scrapped with a rusty jagged spoon!

cramping with pregnancy is normal, but what your describing seems a bit much. I would definitely call the Dr about this. Mild to moderate cramping is normal. something that would be not as bad as a period. I had cramping the whole time throughout my first pregnancy. Maybe except for the end. But it was never awful, never anything I couldn't just shrug off.
 
Is it worrisome if they come and go? I haven't felt any cramping for more than two hours. I will definitely call my OBGYN if I experience it again. What would cause period like cramping? It's like a pulling sensation when it happens.

I just read that pulling/af like cramps is normal (some women seem to have it pretty bad)... maybe my pain tolerance is just low?
 
It's very normal, just as long as you don't have bleeding, fever, chills with the cramps. It's your uterus growing and thickening and the little bean burrowing in even more. I read a good article about it today. If I can find it, I'll post the link for you. :)
 
I have been having horrid AF like cramps, I think it's normal. And I think it's because I'm bloat and gassy. I have found if I start walking around that I start feeling better. I get them at night too.. That sucks.
 
I was going to say that sometimes when I'm super bloated it feels like really bad period cramps. It could just be that.
 
Found it - https://www.babycenter.com/0_abdominal-pain-during-pregnancy_204.bc?page=2#articlesection3
 
TTC bean - probably just your uterus growing and stretching. There is a lot of that in the first trimester, can be a worry but it's probably fine!
 
Sass - thanks for the link. :) My cramps are certainly worsened by the lovely gas and constipation I'm having.

How are you all today?

I woke up feeling sick and dizzy (yay) had a couple of gingerbread men (the Organix kids ones are great!) and some water and it's marginally better but today is defintely the worst so far.

Could be nerves as I have a Dr appt at 8:50 and I'm scared of him telling me off for being pregnant so soon after MC.
 
TTCBean - last pregnancy my cramps were on and off and much worse than a period. And that little bean had snuckled in in the perfect place and grew really nicely (chromosomal issue stopped it growing) - so the cramps are a good thing. Mine haven't been as bad this time and now I'm worrying! But I think maybe a lot of the cramping is your uterus stretching and maybe mines not gone fully back so that's why it's not as painful.
 
Cupcake - the symptoms are great - I'm looking forward to having more than just being tired! Hope it goes well at the dr! Also I think once you've been pregnant before (even if you did mc) your uterus stretches much more easily and you feel it less. Much like you get your bump way before you did with the first one as your body jut remembers!
