So, the spotting is back. I knew I was jinxing myself* by saying it had stopped. (I should have given myself a bitch, please!) I woke up to a brown spot in the undies and have had a little more gunk this morning.** Oh well. Hopefully it will stop soon.
For the bachelorette party this weekend, I decided to just come clean to the bride and another bridesmaid who’s pregnant but not “out” yet. They both know my history so I feel comfortable with that. The other bridesmaid is almost out of her first trimester but had some spotting last night so decided to not share the news just yet. I’m sure we will both spend the weekend quietly shitting ourselves while slamming mocktails. Good times!
Oh, for those that asked – my next beta is on Tuesday. I’m not sure why she does them a week apart instead of two days apart?
Have a great weekend everybody!
* I get very superstitious about pregnancy, even though I know I’m being ridiculous. I think it gives me a little feeling of control, or something.
** Sorry I keep talking about my gunk.
Hope the gunk leaves and leaves for good! Good luck on Tuesday!
I can totally picture you two at the bachelorette. Sucky, but at least you have someone else freaking out about spotting to share it with. I would be worried, too, but I still don’t think that spotting this early (in addition to a good beta) can mean anything too horrible.
However, as someone desperately clinging to worry myself (and battening the hatches against hope), I totally get it.
Did the miscarriage doctor have anything to say about the spotting before? Any comforting don’t-worry-it’s-natural speech to get you through until the next beta?
Wishing you a gunk-free existence!
Stupid spotting. Hope that gunk goes away!
I don’t mind you talking about your gunk, what are friends for?
Sorry about the spotting. I’m still very hopeful for you.
Also don’t understand why your next beta is a whole week later?!
Seriously gunk, go away and don’t come back!! Sending tons of good vibes for Tuesday!
It sounds like a good plan. I know spotting can be normal, but it plays hell on the nerves.
You realize we are all here just for the gunk. Who else could possibly care as much? That’s right other wackos like us.
I’m hoping that there’s more fun than worry this weekend and that you gave a great time.
C’moooon Tuesday.
Ditto Misfit. What would an IF blog be without some gunk? That said, yours can go the f- away now!!!
GL this weekend. Glad you have some partners in crime with the faux drinking. xo
Why can’t it ever be easy?? UGH.
I hope the gunk goes away and stays away. Hang in there til Tuesday and GL fake drinking and staying sane – maybe even having some fun – this weekend. Will be thinking of you.
I’m sorry to hear the gunk is back.
You have every reason to be superstitious about pregnancy, I don’t think you’re being ridiculous at all. I’ve gotten so superstitious about it that I refuse to say the word “pregnant” out loud in relation to myself – instead, if I have to talk about it, I say that I’m “incubating”. My ob has two offices, and coincidentally (or maybe not) I’ve gotten all of my bad news at one office, but haven’t had any bad news at the other office (yet). So now I will only do pg appointments at the other office, even though it’s much futher away. So you have a ways to go before you reach crazyville, and you’ll have company if you get there, since I’m already there.
I hope you’re able to enjoy the weekend at least a little bit.
Oh honey, this was me in 06-08. I finally have my little miracle, he’s two. I have a LPD and needed baby asa and metformin. Send me an e-mail if you want any of my intimate thoughts re: “What I’d do over if knew what I know now”.
Tricky
