Rama I keep trying to say the loss mantra but my head keeps altering it to "right now I think I'm pregnant" which then just makes me want to put up a wall between myself and this pregnancy. How are you doing? When is your next appointment? Has your doctor said anything about the bleeding? Do they know what is causing it yet or how to possibly stop it? I didn't wanna hijack your thread. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) I 100% get amending the mantras, especially when I'm feeling particularly anxious. When you can say them to yourself, do. When you can't, be gentle with yourself. *hugs* I went in today because they wanted me to call in if I was still bleeding in 7 days. Gave me the option to come in and I jumped at it. So far, the only dx for the bleeding is an irritated cervix and tx is complete pelvic rest. Which is lovely with this pregnancy's particular leanings toward arousal. Ugh. The wee one danced for us! Seriously, they were wiggling so much, we almost couldn't get a picture. The nurse waited like three minutes before they paused long enough to get a quick shot. MrRama was basically bouncing off the walls after that. He's so, so excited. I'll spoiler the picture in a quoted post.

I have everything crossed for you. I am glad you are feeling ok to hang out with us here. We are all invested in you ❤❤ I have been doing a terrible job of posting but I have been thinking about you and your family. Tuesday seems so far away but I really hope that it flies by. Thank you:) I have no one else to talk to so you guys are stuck with me. I was worried that my situation would make me feel differently about being on here but it genuinely just made me want things to go perfectly for the rest of you guys even more. I love seeing everyone's good news and passing milestones. I know that it's all about chromosomes and nothing I can control so while I'm trying to wrap my head around my situation it just makes me happier to see that others are doing so well...if that makes sense. Even if things don't turn out for me I'll probably still be lurking and posting from time to time on here to support all of you;) I have done this with both of my loss BMBs. It was so amazing watching them all get where my babies were. I hope you stay with us as much as you can. <3

Rama I am so glad they got you in and baby is still looking good, looking very much like a gummy bear, but adorable!! I hope you feel a little better after the appt. I am glad that you just have an angry cervix and it is nothing more. Bad combo though!

Ahhhhhhh Rama that's such amazing news!!!! I'm so glad that everything with baby looks great and that the bleeding while incredibly horrible and stressful and inconvenient doesn't seem to be impacting LO at all. So wonderful!!!! Do they think the bleeding will slow down or taper off as the pregnancy continues or is this something you're likely stuck dealing with throughout the entire journey?

Rama, I'm so sorry about that angry cervix causing you stress but my heart is jumping for joy at the sight of that dancing gummy bear (lol--so cute). I know how emotional this can be and I am SO glad they brought you in. How wonderful!

Rama I love the shot they got at the ultrasound. I hope your cervix stops being so angry and bleeding subsides. This is the most pregnant you've been and you have a hyper jumping bean, that's so wonderful! sammysam you're one of us no matter what. I have everything crossed that Tuesday will be a positive day. <3

The answer to that is a big, fat question mark. Who knows how long the dreaded cervix beast will rage. Find out next time on... ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)
