9.5 weeks
Tuesday night (9w2d and the day after my fantastic u/s), I had some bright red spotting. It was just a small amount, and only twice when I wiped. After I freaked out and told DH, I went back upstairs to the bathroom and checked again and there was nothing. I called the doctor and he said since the ultrasound was fine the day before that it’s nothing to worry about unless it got heavy. It didn’t – it didn’t even reappear. I’m wondering if it was caused by straining earlier in the day during a BM (TMI, I know).
Yesterday I had my 3 hour glucose test. It wasn’t that bad, but by the end I was STARVING. I was so hungry that I was shaking when I was trying to eat. I’m hoping the test went well. I should find out next week.
DH and I are still trying to decide if we want to tell anyone yet. We were figuring we would, after the u/s was so good, but then after the spotting incident – it’s taken me a few days to get my head cleared and emotionally back on my feet. I know it wasn’t much, but I had a major freak out. I’m having a hard time keeping it to myself when I just want to shout it from the rooftops, especially since the doc said my risk of m/c was down to like 5%, but I have my next u/s on July 2, which isn’t THAT far away. And I’ll be 12w3d. I just don’t know.
