wittyandwaiting sorry about the scary spotting!! But thank you for sharing about possible progesterone withdrawals because that's something I can keep an eye out for (in another 5 weeks). How long were you on them? My OB wants me on them through week 14.

I was on them from the day I got my positive beta around four weeks to yesterday when I was 10 weeks. Apparently this withdrawal bleeding is an actual common thing that happens, would've been wonderful if *coughREcough* somebody told me.
Pregnancy Loss Background (if you're comfortable) 1 MC at 6w6d June 1013. I never MC naturally so had to have a D&C.
How far along are you (weeks/fruit): 6w2d
How are you feeling physically? Good, more nausea then with my DD, I'm hoping that's a good sign. Emotionally? I'm grateful we're having a dating scan on 9/9. I hope we get to see healthy heartbeat. We found out about the MC at an early US, so they make me nervous too.
Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: Ultrasound 9/9
QOTW: What are you going to miss the most about summer? Swimming outside, the long days, walks with the family.
I woke up this morning with some spotting and basically called in the armed forces (which here in Canada isn't actually much).
Really, I paged my midwife who decided that since it was very light and I wasn't having any cramping that it was probably progesterone withdrawal but to make me feel better put me back on progesterone suppositories.
Anyway, I'm having a terrible day because I can't stop thinking about it and I want to go to the bathroom every 15 minutes or so and check. Also, I'm not accomplishing very much because the most important thing in the world right now is my uterus and what's going on inside of it so I'm having a really hard time being a good employee.
For the record, I did a suppository this morning and I haven't had spotting in a few hours.
That is all, thanks for listening (reading).
So sorry for your scare wittyandwaiting. But also another reader thankful for the heads up. I didn't know that this can happen and that would freak the heck out of me too! My specialist did mention weaning from them and maybe this is why.
