Relaxing Doesn't Make Babies

More WTF.

April 10, 2009 — 3:02 pm

I feel wicked bloated, crampy, upset stomach… and the bleeding has stopped. To be honest I’m a little afraid to move for fear of dislodging more blood, as stupid and illogical as that may be. At this point I have absolutely no clue if the cramps mean miscarriage or pregancy. That’s a funny trick of nature. (Ha ha, I’m really laughing.)

I removed all my tickers. I had a really, really good cry (about something else, funny enough). So now I think I’m pretty drained and just am going to hunker down for a few days until my betas.

This whole thing has felt so touch-and-go from the start. I don’t know what I expected the second time around, but I know I didn’t expect this crap.

    I’m sending all of my positive thoughts your way! SO unfair that you have to go through this!! And it is not crazy or illogical to not want to move and dislodge more blood! The heaviness in your abdomen is a good sign though. I know everyone is different, but when I had my “chemical” I knew when it was gone, though the tests still said pregnant, when I didn’t have that heaviness. And I also spotted and had red blood. Thinking of you!!

    HUGS Natalie…if it helps you at all I had severe cramping and premenstral symptoms with both of my successful pregnancies…I even had a little bleeding with my son. I cramped my entire pregnancies.
    I’m thinking of you and praying this pregnancy works out. HUGS!

    I am so sorry to hear this… I had a good amount of brown blood at around 6 weeks for about 3 days and then it disappeared as quickly as it started. I was so terrified at my 8wk ultrasound that they would tell me something was wrong, but everything was fine and hoping it stays that way. I am hoping for the best for you, you will be in my thoughts!!
