My Coworker and BFF is pg, but at 4 & 5 weeks her OB has only seen a gestational sac. she's been having some spotting and cramping. 2 or more episodes since Sat. She left work 2day for some cramping and spotting. each time she goes to the Dr she's they can't find any spotting on vag exam. Her doc told her today that it could be nothing or it could be a blighted ovum at which point there's nothing he can do.
The catch to this is that I'm going on 10 weeks soon and my pg after my pg loss last fall is going well, and DH and I's baby is developing and growing good. And she's seen my u/s pics, prior to her finding out she was pg. She's seen all of them up to 9 weeks. I turn 10 on Monday. She also, knows that at my 5 week scan we saw a tiny baby, but at her 4 & 5 week scan they've seen only the sac and no teeny weeny baby.
I don't know how to react, as if this is a pg loss for her and her DH. I don't know what to think. i JUST know I'll feel weird around her. And I don't want to alienate her, because she was there for me when i lost Dot last year.
But is there a possiblity that it's just to early or i this a bo for her? If it is how should I be with her being that I'm pg with a baby bump now and she may be losing her pg? Help!!!!

it could be too early for your friend, and it could just be the ultrasound technique or equipment. i say it's never over until it's over!

It could just be too early to tell. My doctor says you really can't see anything to around week 6-7. My best friend lost her baby a couple of months ago. it was hard because i'm doing well. but now i've just decided that this child is a miracle child and were sharing it so to speak. lol i think all you can do is be there for her. god bless

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
