Just got a bfp. (hoping its a shit test) have 2.5 year old and 7 month old. As much as another one will make me happy this soon is not good right now.

I've had cramping for the past two days and have had brown blood. I thought my period was coming, but did a test because for the cramps I've had I should have been bleeding a lot. I need somone to come and hold my hand.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Sounds like implantation bleeding - I had it and panicked too. You need to go see the GP and get referral for an early scan.

There are very few false positives - sorry.

Whatever is coming, you will cope, you will eventually be happy about this. Try and stay positive!

TotalChaos · 23/01/2008 20:13

I agree with wmmc. I had exactly the same as you, and all was well with the PG. But you should go to GP and they will probably refer you for a scan to rule out an ectopic PG.

AprilMeadow · 23/01/2008 20:27

Hey sweetie, Congrats on the BFP. I think it might be implatation bleeding also. Would definately go and see your Dr just to double check. Perhaps you could test again in a day or so just to confirm.

AbbyLou · 23/01/2008 20:28

Oh my god, just came here from May as I saw your post. I has implantation bleeding when I was pregnant with R and like you did a test. I was doing it really to rule out the possibility of being pregnant and the rest, as you know, is history (and she's gorgeous!).

I'm staying positive. The two kids I have are more than I could have asked for, and I know another would bring so much joy to our family. I'm scared shitless right now.

AprilMeadow · 23/01/2008 20:34

stay positive (still want to call you MKG). its always scary when something happens in one pregnancy that didnt happen in a previous.

AprilMeadow · 23/01/2008 20:38

Can you get an appt today with your Dr/ Obs/Gyne?

mom2latinoboys · 23/01/2008 20:42

I'm not scared about the bleeding. I'm scared because I'm preggers again. The bleeding I know is normal, and whatever will happen will happen. It's like I just got smacked in the face.

what has dh said?

Original poster

mom2latinoboys · 23/01/2008 20:51

he doesn't know. He knows I was going to test, but he doesn't know that I did or what the results are, and he won't be back until later.

OP posts:

AprilMeadow · 23/01/2008 20:59

so the fact that he knows that you were going to test is cool.

Well i still cant believe that there are 4 of 'us' now preggers! many congrats. Am sure that M&C will be chuffed to have a little brother/sister

Peachy · 23/01/2008 21:03

Please don't worry about the age gap; I ahve 5 months between my older 2 and found that far easier than the 2 years gap before no 3 came alonga s you are still in baby mode (bigger gap for this one- 5 years- but ds3 is still in nappies etc so ok)

Good luck

juliewoolie · 23/01/2008 21:09

Woo hoo MKG another one to join the madness thank god we were begining to feel a bit left out no one else had joined us in the preggo club for a few weeks.

Dont panic I felt exactly the same way when I found out about my surprise. It defo takes a few weeks to get used to it. Good that DH knew you were going to test then it shouldnt be too much of a shock for him.

How do you feel about it in yourself?

Much love sweetie you know we are there to hold your hand whatever is happening.

anneme · 23/01/2008 21:16

Wow MKG - new things are always scary but they all fall into place iyswim. What is going on with the May thread!!! lots of love and it will all be ok

twelveyeargap · 23/01/2008 21:16

Deep breaths! It WILL be ok. It really will.

It's SUCH a shock at first, (especially when it feels like it could be an immaculate conception!), but babies are so lovely that it will all calm down again.

If you think DH might freak out a bit, then maybe be really positive (even if you don't really feel it!) when you tell him as it might help to keep him calm.

Congratulations!

TYGI've decided that I'm hyperfertile. Do you know how many times dh and I have had sex since Cruz was born. Twicethat's it!

This makes the third baby that would be a one shot deal.

God I hope dh is ok with it.

First thing, get M potty trained.

Thank God my mother is in China. She would flip her lid if she knew.

cinnamontam · 23/01/2008 21:41

Wow!! Congrats lovey. Scarey but exciting Have you told DH yet?

AprilMeadow · 23/01/2008 21:44

lol at hyperfertile!

twelveyeargap · 23/01/2008 21:48

M2LB - You are talking to your fertility sister, Lady. I swear to God, two of my three are "miracle pregnancies" and DD2 was fully planned, but happened on the very first try. It's a bit freaky. DH calls me "The River Jordan" because of my fertile plains... Ahem.

AprilMeadow · 23/01/2008 21:51

lol tyg!!

So the scan.......

bigshopper · 23/01/2008 21:54

You have exactly the same gaps as me, and my 3rd was a big surprise. To be honest it took me until he was about 1 to come to terms with any of it, from the pregnancy to having him at all. The first year was also really hard as managing a 1 year old and a new born when you also have a 3 year-old to watch is completely exhausting. Everything's fine now, but I'm just saying this because if you're not sure you're happy then make sure you talk about it to someone rather than spending the best part of 2 years burying depression and feeling guilty and miserable.

juuule · 23/01/2008 21:56

Congratulations.
My dc were 5y4m, 2y7m, 15m when dc4 was born. It was tiring but we were fine and so will you be.

twelveyeargap · 23/01/2008 22:03

I won't crash M2LB; I'll head back over to May and let you know April.

thread crash ends

Pebblemum · 23/01/2008 22:24

OMG M2LB, another one from our thread pregnant, are you sure its not catching (stay away from me lol)

Seriously though I understand why you are worried, but no matter what happens you will cope. My cousin has 3 under 3 and copes amazingly. Its a woman thing, we always manage somehow and im sure once everyone gets over the shock they will all be happy to help.

Im glad your dh knows you were going to do a test, thats a start, should make it a bit easier for you. When i fell pg with A we had decided to put having a baby on hold but it was too late, i ended up doing the test and not telling dh until i had been to the dr's 2wks later, and then tried to act all shocked. It was horrible, everyone on here knew before him

Whatever happens you know we are all here to hold oyur hand, help you through it, good luck!
