A few weeks ago, on the Friday night that I was 7 weeks pregnant exactly, I went to the bathroom and noticed a few drops of blood in the toilet. This began what can only be described as the longest weekend of my life. I, of course, did all of the research that I could and talked with my sisters and my best friend about what could be happening. My sister texted me, "well, that doesn't mean it's over, just keep an eye on it and call the doctor if you feel like you should." Good advice but by Sunday the spotting was heavier and I had very mixed and anxious feelings so I did call the on-call nurse from my OBGYN office and spoke with her. This is still at the point of pregnancy where I have not been in yet because it was so early. The nurse reassured me that there are many reasons for bleeding in the first trimester of pregnancy, miscarriage being only one of those reasons. She told me to call first thing in the morning and make an appointment to go in for an ultrasound....
Living between multiple points of view. Thought I would share mine in the hopes of finding other people who are trying their best to be their best, or even fairly mediocre. My thoughts from my perspective and experiences.
