Spotting... scared...

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
Okay, like Wednesday of this week I had a bit of clear mucous with a small {maybe half a millimeter?} of red blood in it. Off and on since then, I've had some pink mucousy stuff when I wipe.... and I'm freaking out. To make matters worse, my bb's aren't hardly ever sore anymore, not to the extent they had been the last two weeks. I am still super-sensitive to smells and stuff, even though my sinuses are so clogged it's not funny....

At any rate, since it's been four years and alot of hazy sleep since then, should I freak out and run to the ER ASAP or is this normal and I should just chill til my first OB appointment {which insurance says will be about a week at the doctor's office they hooked me up with}

((HUGS)) I don't really have any advice. I would just rest and drink plenty of water.

The ER won't do anything for you. At least I've never heard of a doc offering a soultion to a miscarriage.

I had an early miscarriage and my midwife recommended CarryOn, its an herb mixture from Women's Health I believe, that helps prevent miscarriages or threatened miscarriages.

thanks. The spotting seems to have stopped. Thankfully our family hates each other enough that nobody showed up yesterday {we live with my parents} so I was able to sleep nearly all day...

Glad to hear the spotting stopped!

is it possible you might have a yeast infection? (I had the same type spotting when pg w/ #1 and that's what was causing it I later found out)

in any case I hope all is well. I know how scary it can be
