I have 3 kids, all my kids are a year
apart, my youngest is a girl she's 5
months old. I had them all due to
c-section, and I just found out i'm
pregnant again, we were beyond careful. I
was on the pill, I never missed one and we
used condoms each and every time.
But that's not my problem.
The other day I started bleeding, not
heavy just a smear on my underwear and
toilet paper. I went to the drs the same
day, an hour later and I had two blood
tests done in two days. I got the results
back yesterday that I was still pregnant,
I hadn’t lost the baby, but i'm slightly
cramping, but not much. There are still
smears of brown when I wipe, I haven't
bled since that morning; we had, had sex
the night before. But now I am really
worried. Is it because all my pregnancies
were so close together and that they were
all c-section could that be the cause?
I've more or less been pregnant for 4
years straight, my oldest son was 8 months
when I got pregnant with my second son, my
second son was 6 months when I got
pregnant with my daughter and my daughter
is 5 months and i'm pregnant.
Also, with my daughter I had some
problems, they thought they saw a marker
on her heart and she was born prematurely
and i'm wondering was that a sign that all
my pregnancies are going to be complicated
after that? Is there a chance there will
be something wrong with this baby?
Thank you so much and i'm sorry if this
doesnt make sense i'm really nervous and
scared
what I mean to ask is, is there anything I
should do to help pervent it, something I
can take or anything?
What should I ask of the dr? Is there
something I should bring up when I see
her? I dont go in until wed so I really
want to have all my cards out and to ask
her everything while i'm there so I dont
forget...

I'm sorry, I should have added that.
By my last period, I believe i'm about 5-6
weeks, but by the blood result sheet i'm
roughly 2-3 weeks

Ah, poor you, you've got yourself all in a
flap! There isn't really anything you
can do if a pregnancy just isn't meant to
be unfortunately, that's the horrible
thing. However, i'm not saying that I
think you are going to lose this little
one. I cramped a lot early on in my
pregnancy, I was even tested for suspected
ectopic pregnancy but it all worked out
fine.
I know doctors advise giving your body a
bit of a break between pregnancies but I
don't think that means you are more likely
to miscarry if you do conceive in rapid
succession.
If you start getting more cramping and/or
blood then don't wait for your appt on
wed, get yourself down to the hospital
straight away.
Have you asked your doctor about being
sterilised or your hubby getting the snip?
If you're absolutley positive you don't
want more children then that would be a
good option if you want to.
Best of luck!

No, we have already talked about this,
when this baby is born i'm getting
clamped. We really dont want to go
through something like this again for the
second time and 4 little ones is more than
enough.
