Coda- was it orangy color, and what was the texture?? was it jel like a snot (sorry TMI)?? Did the doctor do an internal exam on you??

no he never did an internal to busy worrying about my hb lol it was like a glob of snot and orangy he just asked if it bruned when i peed i have a bit of a temp too i have another appt on the 30th but if i am at all worryed just to go back . babys hb was fine thou its my birthday tom too lol

How many weeks + days are you right now?? The reason I ask is it sounds like you lots a little bit of your mucus plug. Totally normal to start losing some of it here and there once you get into your third trimester. I didn't lose any until 32 weeks. Yet, if you start losing it, you might be starting to dilate. That is something you may want to have the doctor checked. When I lost my plug at 32 weeks, I was 1 cm dilated. Doesn't really have any weight on when you go into labor (obviously, as I am good proof of that, lol), but you just may want to keep an eye on it. BTW, your hr isn't that high for them to freak out that bad. Mine is normally like 100 even laying down. When I would work out, it would go up to 160. So, don't worry too much about that, I'm sure you'll be fine. Just try to take it easy. Anyhow, in your apt. in 2 weeks from today, you may want to ask to check your cervix. Whatever you do, don't google search about the mucus plug online, because the information is extremely misleading. It says, you'll go into labor within 2 days after losing the plug stuff. Its BS, because almost everyone I know lose months before their due date. Its if you see the actual "bloody show" that you should be weary about.

i am only 23 weeks and 4 days .omg 100 bpm is high your heat beat should only be 70 -80 bpm i am not talking about blood pressure that was fine 120/70 text book perfect . i will get my midwife to do an internal exam when i go the doctor offered but said i would have to wait another 2hrs i was hungry and feeling little silly about worrying about the baby my head is killing me so i think bath and bed now. hows the wee man coming along?? i know u hung onto him for along time :)

silly, I know you are talking hr, not blood pressure. I was just saying that 120bpm isn't horrible high to freak out about. Especially if you are at the doctor with a concern, your heart usually beats much faster. So, now that your home and relaxed, I am sure its much better. :) Plus, I bet that bath your about to take (or already) will help a lot. Just take it easy! How is everything else going?? My parents are here right now, so its help a lot!! I have to feed the little one about every 2 hours, so I could never get more than that of sleep straight... but, I pump the breast milk so that my mom can feed him while I get some extra sleep. Its pretty nice right now, but once they leave and my hubby leaves in a few weeks for 3 months (actually he left today for a while, but then comes back to leave for 3 months) I will just be by myself and I know its not going to be easy. Being a mom is a job itself!

DANIELLA - So glad you got the card. I thought just the card itself was so darn cute. Glad you liked it. I dont know about you but I love getting mail - Fun mail that is. It still beats email plus it keeps my mailman husband in a job -- ha ha :-) Thanks for the comment about DH too. I too think he is pretty nice looking. I sent you that photo from our honeymoon right? Me in the black dress? Sounds like things are going well with new baby boy so far. Other then not enough sleep. How long are your parents staying with you? Must be great to have your mom there and I am sure she is loving every minute of it. It is going to be terribly hard for them to leave. CHRISTIE - Not to worry. You have every right to feel the way you did about the mothers day weekend. I have been thinking allot about the fact that I would be having a baby this month had the m/c not happened. That is tough to think about. That is another reason why I would really like to get a BFP this month - that would mean allot. TARA - Good idea to not tell your daugher about the pregnancy yet. I know that next time I will be telling even less people about it just to be on the safe side. I can not wait until next week to try again - hopefully the timing is the same as the last two months. CODA - Hope whatever is happening with you resolves itself soon. Seems kinda early for the plug to be coming out - What do you think Daniella? She is only 23+ weeks. Glad your baby girl is doing well inside there despite the weird stuff you are seeing on the outside. Like I said, everyday is an adventure. Has anyone heard from BEE -she is due Friday right? Wonder if she has had her baby already. So, I am about crawling out of my skin. Last night I spent almost $3500 on new livingroom furniture. We have been looking and looking and looking for like 2 years and we finally did it. Get it at the end of the week and I am so excited. It will be a whole new room. We have all hand me down stuff now - our tables are from when I was a kid. Still in good shape but so time for a change -- Yeah :-) Dawn

who knows whats going on its probably my bodys reaction to stress. oh wells its my bday today so not going to do anything much at all today.we are going for a meal on sat as debbie is working today.danellia i think he stressed so much because my blood pressure was normal but my pulse was not plus i have an irregulat heat beat. i am wondering if i have an infection or something but it does not hurt to pee but my discharge has changed to like a cottage cheese and some of it is orange! does not smell thou i know tmi lol i was only worryed about the baby and she is fine so maybe i will just keep an eye on things ... danellia ur wee man is soo cute i could eat him up with a spoon u must be very proud. your husband is going to miss so much while he is away baby will probably be on his first soild when he gets back. i just hope u dont get to lonley but ur a strong person i am sure u will manage.. i wont see my family till xmas as they are flying out here we payed for the tickets so will be odd having everyone here. troy just told me he does not think he will get pertanity leave at all too much is happening at work right now which is a bit of a bummer i just hope i dont go into labour while he is at work they might not let him leave lmao joke but they can be arses.helen i hope ur okay. yeah bee is due on the 19th how great would it be if she had the baby today?? lmao anyways i am away to make myself lunch a bake debbie a cake for her bday

Happy Birthday Coda!!!! Troy better pamper you, hehe. Also, I think at your next apt. in 2 weeks, you might want to ask them to do an internal to check your cervix. An infection can cause preterm labor (you definitely don't want that at only 23 weeks)... the only time I seen orangy stuff is when I started losing my plug at 32 weeks (when my cervix started to dilate)... I know lots of woman who have lost their plug, or parts of it, at 28+ weeks... but, not as early as you are. It wouldn't hurt to have them check that. Well, it is good that your blood pressure is normal. For some reason my blood pressure is always normal, but my hr is always high. Can never figure that one out. I am sure all will be fine. ALso sure hope you have a great birthday!!! I think Bee probably had the baby already and is recovering. Wonder if it IS a girl.. hehe. __Helene- How's things?? been busy with the pregnancy an all. Not posting as much so you better Email me. hehe. ;) Hope all is well with you also. I am able to post right now because my mom is in the nursery feeding the little man. I needed a break. How's everyone else????

hi there, im sara and im newish to this site and i would like to join your thread, i am currently going through a m/c this is my second this year , i didnt really know that i was m/c b4 as it was so early, but this one ive had to have bloods minitored and i was 7 weeks along, i feel so alone, and unloved by my hubby, he says that he feels helpless and doesnt really know wot to say to me, i feel so low at the moment, just wanted to post really, i think it will help to write my feelings on here, than keep it to myself, i havent had a d n c, i started to miscarry last fri, after 2 wks of light spotting, anyway hello everyone, xx

okay i think i do have an infection the bottom of my belly is really sore and it goes round to my back will drink more water and see if i can get to the doc tom. i better not go into labour any time soon i dont think i will . i notice some clear snot stuff in the toilet after i peed i dunno whats going on . anyways i am having fahitas for my dinner then white chocolate mudd cake hehe sould make me feel better hu??

sorry to hear of ur losses bjovs1 . will u be trying again? do u know what caused the misscarage?

CODA - HAPPY BIRTHDAY :-) I hope you have a wonderful day and enjoy that white chocolate mud cake. That sounds absolutely scrumptous. If that does not cure your ills not sure what will :-) he he I hope you do not have an infection. Let us know what your doctor has to say if you get in this week. Would hate for that to spoil your special day with your sis. DANIELLA -- Dont you wish you could just keep your mom there the whole time your hubby is gone? I know my mom will plan to spend at least a week with me after we have a baby. She also offered to cash in a weeks worth of her PTO to give me the money to help with expenses and stuff - that is awesome. I am doing really well these days - working out more, feeling healthy, taking my temps and just waiting to start seeing that fertile cm. I have 5 of my OPK strips left from last month and am just going to use those around the time I think things will happen. I am getting more regular so no sense using them for days and days when I have a better idea when I will get the LH surge. Although, I am thinking we need to be doing it days before I see it since we have not caught an egg yet. I am very hopeful for this month. Getting my hair done on Saturday and early next week should be the time :-) SARA -- So very sorry for your loss and glad you finally decided to post. This is a great bunch of ladies and as you have read, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. We seem to be about 50/50 now with people that have had a loss now pregnant or soon to give birth. Stick around, it will make you feel better for sure. We can all relate to the husband not being supportive as much as we would like. They are not in our bodies and can never completely understand what we are going thru but all of us on here can so share away. Dawn

Hey Dawn, yea.. that would be awesome if she could stay the whole time he is gone, but unfortunately they are leaving on the 29th. Still a good amount of time here. I wish you the best of luck this month with conception. Man, I'll tell ya what, now I am starting to wonder what I should do. Its almost 2 weeks post delivery and I am starting to heal. Not that I would think about sex anytime soon. LOL... Gosh, it still hurts to pee sometimes, yet.... soon I hope to get back in business. LOL... My hubby thinks now that we finally had a baby after 3 prior miscarriages, that I will probably be a baby making machine. hehe. I didn't really want to take any birth control (especially since I am breast feeding, etc.) but, just not something I want. I know when you breastfeed that your chances are slim to conceive again, but hey... I have weird luck. So, I think here soon I am going to start tracking my fertility. I was thinking about waiting until my first AF, but I think I am going to start soon, just to get on a track to see whats going on with my body. I know your very fertile after giving birth and I definitely want my body body back, lol... Heck, its like I was pregnant for a year straight since I was 3 months when I had my last mc and only 5 weeks later I conceived again. Hardly a break there... I dont think I could take another pregnancy back to back. I mean, I would love the blessing and can afford it, etc. but my body really needs a break. So, I think I am going to start doing my scope again. I also wonder how much HCG is in my system. I know your HCG peaks at like 12 weeks, and starts to go down, and at the very end its pretty low.... so, since its been 2 weeks.. I wonder if any is left. Gosh, all the times TTC and now, TT not C. LOL.

OK, just to add.... I meant tracking my fertility to try to avoid conception. Didn't mean to confuse.

hi everyone, hi coda, no i dont know wot caused it, i feel as if they have just left me to get on wiv it, docs said come back if you are in severe pain, or you have to change your pad 4 times in an hour, yes im going to try again, any thoughts on how long i should leave it b4 we start to try again, as im unsure how long to leave it, thanks sara
