Spotting and very nervous tmi...I need some comfort

[mamaxs4]

Yesterday I was spotting...very slight only when I wiped. It's bright orange...I called my doctor and the nurse said that it's probably from implantation....well, I spot a couple more times and it stopped. Well about 10am I'm spotting bright orange again. I get scared and go to the er. Doctor there says he doesn't see any more bleeding. well....I spot a couple times...light pink very very slight.

My pregnancy symptoms haven't dissapeared(sp) , my boobs are as sore as ever and the nausea is a little worse. They did say I have a bladder infection. Whaaaa? How could I not know that? Anyway, my doctor is probably not going to be happy that I went because he likes to see his own patients. I just don't want to hemorrhage like I did with the miscarriage 3 years ago. My doctor knows about the miscarriage, just not about the hemorrhaging. I'm just a little nervous about all this....nervous isn't quite right...may be numb is better. I don't want to lose this baby.

I wish I knew how to do the hug emoticons :/ I know how you feel. I bled for a week with my last pregnancy and have bled for 2 weeks so far with this one. Since my last pregnancy resulted in my beautiful son, I'm trying my best to remember the advice my midwife gave me: if it doesn't get heavy enough to soak a pad in 1 hour it's likely everything is ok.

I still worry. Pregnancy is not easy.

Hope and thoughts coming your way! I know how u feel, but positive thoughts thats what i say! And say to yourself everything is going to be ok!

i have heard of a lot of women having yellow cm in early pregnancy which is normal
so the "orange" spotting could have been just that
and i have also heard of a lot of women lightly spotting in early pregnancy as well
i wouldnt stress and worry if you can help it because stress can cause MCs
everything will be okay dont worry

Did you by chance take pyridium or any over the counter meds for the bladder infection? Some turn your urine day glow orange.

Just a thought.

Just a normal run of the mill antibiotic....cephalexin.

What has me concerned is my own doctor isn't concerned and while the staff is nice I feel brushed off....I really want an ultrasound to make sure this baby is fine.

Where are you? A lot of EPas units in the UK allow self referral. I have self referred for early scans with every pregnancy, I just phone them direct and explain why I want the scan and they book me in.

In the US....Indiana. I switched Drs.....they couldn't get me in as quick as they wanted. Hopefully they will do an an u/s when I go. I'll ask for one...not sure how many my insurance will cover though.
