That's forever away!

[Linnis]

My first appt with my OB isn't until March 28th! That's like forever away. Hopefully everything with medical etc will be set up, I'm really looking forward to it. I haven't had ANY spotting this time around which they take as a good sign BUT if I begin to spot I'm supposed to call for an emergency appt.

I know - it seems like they make you wait forever anymore. How far along are you?

Just remember brown spotting is ok Red is bad,but I agree call for any. Praying for you to not get any at all this time!

I love your shirt godsgirl & saved! I need to go look for some more maternity clothes.

I was glad for my appointment to be scheduled later. I wasn't anxious to start going to the dr. every month then every two weeks. LOL Reckon I'm wierd.

I'm glad you are not spotting. I did spot with my first child for several weeks. Scared me silly. I did spot with this one after my first exam but it wasn't much. And I've spotted pink after intercourse. That kinda scared me but it was just a bit. Since then I've found out that I have previa and we are not allowed to have intercourse until they check me again at my next U/S.

I spotted with DD (a lot) because of previa which scared me because of previous miscarriage. It started at about 12 weeks, but by 20 it had moved up and away. Praise God!!
I spotted for about a week with this one, but just had u/s and he/she is doing fine!

I had to wait 3 weeks to get in to see my Dr. My next apointment isn't till March 29th. Thats six weeks from the first one.

When I was spotting, my doctor told me not to go to the emergency because when they do the exam to check to see if the cervix is open or closed, it can irritate the cervix and cause a miscarriage. But I guess if that is what your doctor told you to do, go to the emergency, then you do it. I had lots of bleeding with all my children. They all ended up fine. Even some doctors have said that their wives have had piles of bleeding (a pad every 2 hours) and have had healthy babies.

I hope you don't have any bleeding because it is really scary. Of course, sometimes you have to go to the emergency- I'm just saying that sometimes even lots of bleeding doesn't mean an impending miscarriage. Sometimes when the baby is implanting in the uterus, it hits a vein.
