I am glad everything went well. Can't wait to hear about your ultra sound. That is the funnest part of being pregnant. Being able to see your little peanut, and feeling them move inside you.

Last night I started spotting again, but I am hoping it was just from the pap smear at my appointment. I wasn't very concerned at first, but a few hours ago, I wiped and saw actual blood. It wasn't bright red, but somewhere between light pink and red. It only bled for a few minutes and stopped and I never got anything on a pad. Now I am scared again. I called the on call doctor and she didn't seem like it was severe enough to be concerned yet, but she did say that there is nothing they can do of course if something is wrong. She did say I can come in for another checkup next week if I need to. I have not had any cramping either.

Very probably the pap. I had bleeding after mine during pg as well (for like 3 days). I'm sure everything is fine with the baby bean .

How are you feeling now?

Lately I've been having more pelvic pain and I had pain in the side of my back a couple days ago. I still haven't really gotten sick, but I did gag this afternoon after eating dinner while I was cleaning the kitchen. Otherwise I still feel normal. I hope I start feeling more symptons soon actually.

I agree it was probably the pap. My doctor always told me to expect some spotting or light bleeding after a pap or sex. The pains you are feeling are probably growing pains, some women have a more painful time expanding to fit the baby. (believe me I know, I hurt so bad the first six weeks of pregnancy it was unreal) The first and third trimesters are really bad for getting back pain, the second one is like your break from it for most. Just don't worry, and try to relax and take it easy while your body adjusts to being pregnant.

I have been away from the boards for a few days because I had some family in town.

Up until a few days ago, I was worried about not having any morning sickness yet. Well, it still hasn't gotten too bad but it did finally kick in. My mom, my grandmother, and I were looking around Babies R Us on Friday and I started to get a little queasy. It kept getting worse and eventually I was making a beeline for the restroom. It sure wasn't fun puking my guts out in a public restroom, but I imagine people would understand considering the store. If this keeps up, it seems like I'm going to get afternoon sickness instead of morning. I'm just glad to finally be feeling more symptoms.

So sorry your starting to get sick. I hope it doesn't get too bad or last too long.

My sickness was always in the evenings. At least it was worse in the evenings, I was always sick. At least you know it's a good sign though. Eat fruit, it's easier on the stomach.
