I had red bleeding too and everything was fine. I've got fingers crossed that yours is because of the ultrasound. Can they get you in today for a quick check?
My nurse thinks it's probably just from the u/s yesterday, so I'm trying not to freak out too much but FUCK can nothing just be easy for a little while?
Fuckkkk. But this update from you gives me hope. U/s w wand or manual exams always made me bleed after. Sometimes red, sometimes clotty.
And because it gave me hope to hear from others- I had Massive bleeding during c's pg. one time ton of clots and soaked the pristine white bed on a cruise ship and severely bled for days (after a history of m/c). And I still have a gorgeous perfect little kid out of that. I hope no one thinks I'm insensitive for writing that, esp you, Rex. But ppl on here told me their stories of healthy kids after blood and I clung to those stories like a life raft in my head while waiting to find out if things were ok.
I think about you a ton right now, and I hope all is still great. (((((Hugs)))))
I will share with you what may be one of my more embarrassing pregnancy (or really just life) stories. I was around 6 weeks and was too scared to have sex. However, I was really horny. So I took care of business on my own. Later that evening I started bleeding. I freaked and called the doc. They brought me in for an u/s the next day and I promptly told the tech and doc I had been masterbating and asked if that was damaging the baby. I am pretty sure they make fun of me on their tumblr somewhere.
Sending you and BabyManningDay so many good thoughts!
Ummmm...this is what happened to me, too. I was 32, almost 33 and mortified to tell the on call nurse that I had had an orgasm but not sex. Lol!!!
Oh RexManningDay I'm so sorry you are having such a hard time.
Please rest and treat yourself the way you should. Meaning as a pregnant lady who needs to take it easy.
As you know I am a worrier and "what-ifer" and that's why I keep looking for different ways to turn that damn switch off and enjoy my life. So, I have some homework for you.
Watch episode 6 of star wars (hopefully you've seen some or all of them). Pay attention the silly things Yoda talks about regarding fear and it being the path to the dark side....That is not just fiction; Darth Vader's story is a great illustration of how fear really leads you to no good.
When you are done with that movie watch Groundhog Day. I love that movie! Notice how different Phill starts to live once he's not afraid of the future. Once he's not afraid of consequences because there's no tomorrow.
Compare the outcomes of both movies.
If you are thinking "what good is this going to do if in the end something bad happens?" Then shut up and go do your homework.
As a follow up I am expecting every post from now on to be worded in a positive way. No matter the nature of the news.
Still with my fingers crossed just as the first day.
My nurse thinks it's probably just from the u/s yesterday, so I'm trying not to freak out too much but FUCK can nothing just be easy for a little while?
I've spotted a couple times so far. Anytime things are prodding around my cervix (be it my OB or husband), I run a chance of spotting.
I had heavy, bright red bleeding at 9 weeks with DD1 and everything turned out okay.
This time, I had some light red spotting, went in for a vag ultrasound, and ended up with even more red spotting/bleeding the next day. It turned out that I have a polyp on my cervix that got aggravated, and the vag u/s just made it more angry.
I'm hoping that this turns out to be nothing for you, and that the rest of your pregnancy is uneventful!

Also, I was thinking about this on my way home. In your post last week you said you probably wouldn't bleed if you were m/c'ing because of all the drugs you're on.
To me that lends even more credence to the fact that your cervix just got pissed off with the dildo cam.
Everyone is of the consensus that the bleeding is probably nothing, and I'm hoping they are right. I've never been down that path before but I'm hoping for the best for you. ((hugs))
