Threatened Miscarriage??

Suddenly my bbs don't feel sore and I have very light brown spotting...is this a threatened miscarriage? What do I do? Sit and wait? Get an HCG test?

I was so relaxed until now. And I had a mochalatte today so now I feel really guilty!

Ummm, its so hard to judge what brown spotting can be...sometimes its ok sometimes its not.
For me, I had lack of symptoms and then started spotting brown, and I ended up having a scan which showed just a sac measuring 5 weeks and no baby(I was supposed to be 7 weeks) and then the next day I miscarried. I had had hcg levels tested aswell and they were going down, but I didnt know that till after I m/c.

Dont feel guilty, I highly doubt that if you are having a m/c it has anything to do with the mochalatte**hugs**
Ring your midwife or doc and get hcg done, and also maybe ask if you can have a scan, it will really put your mind at ease.

Text me! Big hugs! I'm sure everything is fine. I've had weeks and weeks worth of spotting with this pregnancy, and with the gremlins too and all is well. If it's brown and old-looking, try not to read too much into it (don't worry, I know that's almost impossible!)as it could be just implantation bleeding, irritation near the cervix, or even a pseudo-AF. The boobs thing doesn't mean anything coz symptoms come and go like that.

When I miscarried the bleeding started out bright red and clotty, I knew straight away that it was all over.

What's happening is still termed a threatened miscarriage, any bleeding before 20 weeks is, but that doesn't mean you will miscarry. Keep an eye on the spotting and give your midwife a call and see about maybe getting your hCG levels done. There's no point having a scan at this stage as you can't see the heartbeat till 6 1/2-7 weeks.

More big hugs, call me if you need anything?

Yep they sure can! As can nausea and all other pregnancy symptoms just to make us all neurotic and crazy!
I'd say go to the doc in the morning, the only way to find out now would be to turn up at the WAU at Ak hospital and have them do urgent bloods.

Teehee, I've SO done that. Then you don't know whether they're sore coz you've been poking them or sore coz of hormones etc.!
Blah, early pregnancy sucks! If you were a few weeks further I'd say come over and use the doppler for peace of mind but your bub is too small for that yet.

Of course I do - do you think I could get thru pregnancy without one? I am a total headcase!

Thanks guys. You so know I'm going to be in that bathroom every 10mins tonight.

Oh, hang in there Fi! Fingers cross that this little one sticks, and that the spotting is nothing. I know a few people who spot all through their pregnancies and they have beautiful babies now.

Ah, so I am normal after all!

Bit scarey anyway!
