Pregnancy update

[Guest guest]

Dear everyone,

I just want to give you an update on my pregnancy. I am now 9 weeks pregnant

and have been having LOTS of bleeding since week 5. It has been quite

stressful as something that started as occasional brown spotting turned out

to an " everyday " thing. And last Sunday I had an episode of bright red blood

(like my best period day). I was so sure I was loosing the baby, but

fourtunately I went for an ultrasound and the baby is still there, heart

beating, and we could even see the little one moving!

I was very relieved but still it is such a stress, because no one knows why

all this blood or where it is coming from (my cervix? my uterus?). My

doctors say that lots of women bleed at the beginning of a pregnancy, and

that many of them go on to have normal pregnancies. It is all that I can

hope for.

Thanks for reading,

Lucila

Lucila,

I pray things settle down for you and that this pregnancy continues

quietly.

Best wishes

Lucila,

I am so sorry about all of your bleeding. I know you must be very scared. Please remember that so many members had bleeding, and went on to have healthy pg. My RE recommended complete pelvic rest, and no walking ANYWHERE, or heavy lifting. The bleeding definately coordinated with my movement. Needless to say this helped me stay put.

Stay strong. Your little will too! If you need to chat, email me at susiekunin@.... I remember week 9 like yesterday. (I wanted to cry everyday)

Hugs,

Deanna,

I'm praying that the next half of your pregnancy goes as well as the first part. Please try to rest as much as possible. Unfortunately the last part of your pregnancy is always the hardest so make sure you are taking it easy.
