Anyone experience random sharp pains? I keep reading that it's ligaments but it seems too early. I'm 8w1d. The pain isn't specific to one side and it's not consistent, just here and there but I catch my breath when it happens. Sometimes if I lean over and wait a minute, it helps, but it still hurts, especially when I sneeze or cough. And seeing as I have a cold right now, it's more constant. I have never in my life been much of a worrier, but that all I do now. Just looking for some input to put my mind at ease. Next US is Monday, July 19th.

Thank you all so much for your kind messages, they have really helped during this difficult time.

For those who don't know, I had a big scare on Wednesday.  I'd had mild stomach cramps all evening and when I went to the toilet I filled it with blood.  Went straight to the Emergency department at the hospital, was told it was a threatened miscarriage and I needed an U/S in the morning.  So after a sleepless night I went to our ER and the scan showed a sac still there.  I was put on bed rest until today when I went back for another scan.

On today's scan the baby measured at 7 weeks and there was a strong heart beat.  Our ER confirmed that it had been twins and I lost one on Wednesday night.  The site of the bleeding is right next to the sac, although separate so still at risk.  On bed rest until Friday now when I go back for another scan.  So hoping everything works out for my baby.

Boulove - hope you're doing ok, I know how you must be feeling.  I am so bored on bedrest!

Everyone else - hope all is going well

i had a really big scare on saturday night.  I felt some mild gas pains prior to leaving for dinner and while sitting at the dinner table with friends i suddenly felt unreasonably wet. I went to the bathroom only to find my pantyliner filled with red blood.  I called my dr who told me to meet him at the emergency room in 10mins.  

Thank god he had was quick i was worried i was losing the baby.  He did a cervical exam only to discover that i had an emense build up of crinone, he took all the build up out, it was about 1/2 cup full.  A day prior i complained to my husband that i had a funny smell down there, i couldnt figure it out thought it was from the cream.

Well after that was all cleared out he did transvaginal U/S the baby was still there and had grown and the heartbeat was still beating strong, turns out i have bleeding inside the uterus, lucky for me it is not surrounding the embryo, the dr said sometimes this happens and not to worry as long as the blood flow does not move around the embryo i should be ok.  He ordered me to have bed rest for 4-5days and come in for another U/S and stop using crinone he put me on different suppositories and told me that i would still bleed for a couple more days.

I asked him if this was a threatened miscarriage, he said no it wasnt, that my cervix is still closed and that he feels i will be fine as long as i rest and not stress.

I am praying all will go well, I feel fine,no cramping but i do bleed when i go to the toilet only now, he said this is normal.

Looks like i'll cancel my bali trip now, i dont want to chance it, i feel much safter staying near home knowing my dr is at the touch of a button and will attend to me at any hour.

Happy to report baby seems to be doing fine.  Just a word of caution to those of you using crinone sometimes it causes bleeding and that you should get checked as well to make sure you dont have build up as well.

You are all in my prayers for good first trimester:)

Sorry I have been MIA!!!! Just really busy and trying to keep myself occupied. I really wish I could be giving you all some amazingingly awesome update of how sick i feel and how i just can't keep my eyes open but sadly nothing. I have been finishing painting the outside of my house, cleaning the inside...just trying to keep going forward.

Congrats to all you ladies who are getting further along in your pregnancies...enjoy every moment, take belly pictures and savor EVERY second. You never know what the future holds and if you go through your whole pregnancy scared and terrified you will regret it when that beautiful bundle is in your arms.

I will be around from time to time to make sure you are all still doing wonderful...Don't worry about me, I will be ok and i will get through this and one day (hopefully soon) I will be right behind you...
