Im scared. Please pray. New friend?

Im having some brownish spotting today.
Not much, but just enough to have me scared.
The midwife on call said that this is "normal", because of the uterus and other things stretching and growing in there. And that as long as it doesn't turn red, I should be totally fine. She said "Have a great weekend, and try not to worry!"
Still, I am SCARED! Please pray that everything continues to go well for me and this pregnancy. I really don't know if I can mentally or emotionally handle another loss.

This morning we had a playdate with some of our MOPS friends, and we ended up staying at the playgroun until 2pm! I got to share my lunch and witness to a new mommy! (I dont know where she stands spiritually, but I got to share my testimony with her, and we got to know more about each other.) I also invited her to our next MOPS playdate, and even got her phone number, so we can stay in touch! That was really neat.

Hannah is "taking a rest", reading books to her baby dolls in her new big bed. She needs some downtime after 3 hours of running on the playground!
Her ballet class starts in less than an hour, and I have to fold laundry and clean up in the kitchen before we leave. And find her dance clothes....

What I'd really like to do is curl up on the couch and cry, but I guess that will wait until later tonight. I've been on a huge emotionally draining roller coaster, I've been irritable and moody with everyone close to me, and I've been extra-hungry this week.

PS: Our five year wedding anniversary is tomorrow. To celebrate, I'm going to chop off all my hair! Then maybe Mike will take us out for a nice yummy dinner.

Happy Anniversary. I will say a prayer that all is well w/ your pregnancy. My friend had spotting last week and all was fine. I know nothing is really reassuring during this time but it is nice to know someone else experienced bleeding too.
Have a great 3 day weekend, have fun chopping off your hair and enjoy your cry :)

You're in my prayers. Keep us posted. And by all means, if it continues, go to the ER so they can at least do an U/S to see what's happening!

I am praying for you, the baby and for peace, right now. I seem to remember Allison and Lacie having an experience like you are describing. Lacie and I even went to the doc's for an u/s, and all was well. Will be praying and praying some more!

And Happy Anniversary! :)

Please post some pictures of your new hair cut!
