Scare

Since my miscarriage this spring Grayson and I have wary of this new pregnancy. Thursday morning I woke up and started spotting. Of course I freaked. After a call to the doctor they scheduled a ultrasound for early Friday and then I was to have an appoint. in the afternoon with my OBGYN. Since I had some mild cramping too and this felt just like how my last miscarriage had gone I pep talked myself all Thursday night to just accept the inevitable. So yesterday morning I walked into the ultrasound and told the tech I was positive I had miscarried and needed a confirmation. So she started poking around and low and behold the baby was totally fine. It even somersaulted a couple times just to prove its point. I am still flabbergasted today. They couldn't find any particular reason why I was spotting but everything looked normal so they decided it was probably implantation bleeding. This is not a guarantee towards a continued pregnancy but it sure gave me a unexpected kick in the butt...so Thanks again Heavenly Father, you really know how to throw the curve balls! (and I mean that respectfully!)

Hey there. I am so excited that you are pregnant again. I actually spotted with 2 out of my 4 pregnancies and it scared me to death. I'm not sure that its anything but a coincidence that it was with both my boys. Congrats. Hope everything goes well. Keep us posted.
