    Default Trying not to worry

    Yesterday morning I noticed some very very faint spotting when I wiped after using the bathroom. I only noticed it a couple of other times during the day after using the restroom. But if I checked like I was checking for CM it was a little tinged, brownish pink. Again it was so very light, but I pay close attention, probably too close of attention honestly. I called the doc and they said as long as it was not bright red or I didn't have any cramps not to be concerned but they did have me stop at the lab to check my urine. I am still waiting for the results of that. I have my next appointment next Tuesday and I'll be just a couple days shy of 11 weeks. They told me at my last appt. that with the doppler they have in the office they can't hear the heartbeat until around 11 weeks. I am really hoping that they are able to hear it next week or I will really be a nervous wreck. I'm trying to relax and not worry, but next Tuesday can't get here fast enough!

    Thanks for listening to my rant!

    Forgot to mention that I had an ultrasound at about 7 weeks and we did see the heartbeat flickering away. They didn't tell us what it was, but they gave us a disc with the pics on it and there was an information page that said 186bpm. I didn't hear anything from the dr. after I had it done, so I figured all was well.

    try not to worry, I'm sure everything is fine. Very light spotting seems to happen to a lot of people. It's good you let your Dr know about it.

    Try not to stress. I had that too with DD & she is perfectly healthy. Brownish pink is ok, bright red is bad but I understand it is hard to wait.

    (((Hugs))) I am sure everything is fine. I have lots of family and friends with light spotting and everything turned out fine. Hoping this week flies by for you and Tuesday gets here fast!

    I know how stressful that can be...I had light spotting with DD2. Try to relax (I know, I know, impossible right?) as best you can. I'm sure everything will be ok!
