Little Scare, but Okay. Don't Ever Be Afraid to Call Dr, Just In Case !

Marissa • Mom to three and owner of MommyKnowsWhatsBest.com. TTC after miscarriage.

I had a little scare yesterday. I had rust colored staining when I wiped a few times. I thought it was the start of a miscarriage again, like the one I had in November. I was so nervous. I called the doctor and they told me to go right in. I had an ultrasound and an exam, and thank goodness the baby is perfectly fine. The blood was just some old stuff from my cervix or it could have been from me bearing down when coughing or gagging from morning sickness . I was embarrassed, thinking that I wasted their time to only discover that. The doctor told me he would rather me call and be checked out instead of worry the whole time.

Moral of the story: ladies, never be afraid to call if you think there is a problem! Better to find out it's nothing that worry yourself sick!

Baby is healthy and measuring perfectly at 8 weeks 3 days with a heartbeat of 185. 💓
