I had my first pregnancy and miscarriage in 2012. I went in for my first appointment only to be told that there was no heartbeat and I needed a D&C.

I found out I'm pregnant again almost 2 weeks ago and have my first appointment on the 30th.

But yesterday, after announcing to the in-laws, I started spotting. Lightly and brown, no problem. Then cramping. Still pretty ordinary.

Today, the cramping stopped and the spotting lightened. Then my new job called saying I was supposed to work yesterday when I wasn't even supposed to be on the schedule yet. I got stressed out because well, that's what happens when other people expect you to fix their mess and what if I could lose my job for this nonsense.

I started cramping again and the spotting became heavier again. I'm mostly calm now but I have to try to sort this out fully tomorrow.

I'm so worried but I know I need to stop stressing.
