Another Milestone

Today at 5w5d was the day I m/c #2. The spotting began at 5w3d and continued right through until the m/c was complete. Today I am 5w5d and I have had no spotting at all; knock on wood!!! I have passed my biggest milestone of all. I feel happy because from here on it's a day further along than I have ever been. I still feel all of my symptoms, so I'll take that as a good sign. With both of my m/cs I lost all my symptoms before the spotting began. I can see that the baby aspirin and the extra dosage of folic acid is really doing it's job.

I was reading a pregnancy book a few days ago and it was talking about all the over the counter medicines that are not recommended. One was aspirin, but there was a little box that mentioned baby aspirin. It says that in some cases baby aspirin can prevent miscarriages and other problems relating to your pregnancy. I know for me, I am one of those cases. I am still a little paranoid when I go to the bathroom and I'm always making sure I have all the symptoms. My appointment is next week and I can't wait for that day to arrive and make sure everything is going well. I know this 1st trimester is still very risky, but for me passing my milestones makes me feel better about this whole pregnancy. I still pray everday to God to help and I'll continue to pray for everything to go well.
