Strange Question of the day

[adgal]

Once again, this is something new to me....so I am having weird discharge again.  Once again, it does not look anything like blood at all.  It's almost like a dark orangey brown liquid...and I mean liquid like urine. I have it on my panty liner, and I feel kind of wet all the time.  I am wondering if it's possible that my bladder is leaking??  My urine is still really dark, and I have to pee constantly...probably because I am so thirsty all the time.  There is no scent or anything to it...it is so strange.  Any thoughts?  I also had a tiny bit of that weird brown mucas last night and this morning, but nothing since (this morning was after bm again..sorry, I know, tmi!! lol)  Has anyone else experienced anything like this?

I had terrible headaches during the first trimesters of my pregnancies and nothing really seemed to help me except I would lie down in bed with the curtains drawn and then I would put some pepermint oil on my temples, across my forehead and actually inside my nostrils and I think it actually helped. I used the Aveda blue oil but a friend of mine swore by the Origins minty oil (not sure what it is called).

Your syptoms are awesome even though they are not very pleasant. Believe me, there will be days where you don't have them and you will get freaked out so you will wish for them to return LOL!!!

Take care,

The other thing I've learned is if you're going to cough, vomit or sneeze violently to make sure you've crossed your legs or something because you will have leakage (of the bladder type).

I think it's your bladder leaking.   This has been happening to me too and I actually read that it's quite common in pregnancy.  The uterus is pressing down on the bladder and it leaks a bit and you don't even realize this is happening.   But if it worries you, definitely call your OB

By the way I get horrible headaches daily too...they drive me nuts!!!

[oceanv]

headaches are good :-O) hormones etc......  my girlfriend had (has) wicked headaches with both her pregnancies.  I didn't but then again I barely have had any symptoms, sounds like you're getting them all :-O)

[adgal]

I am also getting bad headaches daily.  And this morning was the most nauseas I have been, although I didn't throw up.  I did call my OB"s nurse about it yesterday, and she didn't seem even remotely concerned.  She said if there is a strong smell (which there is not) or it starts to look like bleeding, I should come in.  Other then that, I am waiting to see her until after my ultrasound.  I think I will feel more confident when I see those HCG levels next week.  I know the blood work keeps being a week apart, but I just use that online HCG calculator to see how fast they are doubling.

Amanda,

I had the same thing with Gavin.  My doctor told me it was because a huge change in my hormones, my HCG levels jumped like yours did.  I would also get really really bad headaches.  I would still call your doctor and let them know.  I'm sure eveything is fine.  Your body is going through a lot right now and deep implementation can cause symptoms like this too.

I was trying to think of the best way to describe it when I posted this, and yes, amber would be the right word.  Thank's Dana.  I am actually worrying less and less about it as it still doesn't look anything like blood....old or new.  And it comes and goes, not consistant at all.  I keep thinking my bladder is leaking.  Thanks for the info ladies.  Going to have another Beta monday just to set my mind at ease.  If I go today, I will just stress all weekend until I get those numbers monday morning.  I think it's better to get them done monday.

Adgal,
Is it an amber color?  If so, I had amber colored discharge when I was pregnant with my little girl!  I distinctly remember calling the after hours OB freakin out about the color and she said that many women who are preg get that.
Hope that helps :-)

hi a. never noticed a color but always felt like i was "leaking" something early on.

Remember you had no af last cycle and you probably have alot of left over muscus from the miscarriage. The whole point of af is to rid your body of stuff, you never got the oppurtunity to rid your body fully. I think it's left over muscus. As long as it stays orange/brown in color and you have no cramps, you should be fine. Just watch for red color. I think your going to be just fine, stay positive and try not to stress,
