Always checking the TP?
| Tue, 06-05-2007 - 12:44am |
I can't go pee without checking the TP for blood - anyone else? I never did this when I was pg with my 2 DS but after having the m/c, I can't put the toilet paper in the toilet without checking it for blood first. I hate that! Just another thing to be obsessive about after having a m/c. Sigh. Let's hope this time around I never see it!

Oh Sweetie.. I also checked the tp for blood all the time.
ALWAYS!!
And I am 16w5d. I have also spotted throughout this pregnancy. The latest on Friday.
I didn't check or spot like this with my previous 2 pregnancies.
You are not alone.

You're definitely not alone!
Hello Geneva,
I do the same thing! Most of the time I will check the TP, but sometimes I try to wipe really fast and not even look because I'm too afraid to look. I know it's not fair that we all have to have this fear. I guess after having 4 m/c's your mind plays tricks on you.
I'm praying that none of us ever see blood on the TP again.
I am 10w6d and I still do pretty regularly check the TP. I tell myself I am "weaning" though--I no longer turn on the lights in the bathroom at night! I hope I'm not still checking in the 2T, but who knows....just another joy of PAL. Hang in there!

As I'm sure everyone else has told you, welcome to the joy of being a PAL. I checked the TP for spotting until right around 25 weeks! Then I started checking to see if my water broke! :) Here's to you NEVER seeing that nasty spot.

Yeah, unfortunately I do the same thing. I feel like I will do it my WHOLE pg too, not just in the 1T. I wish I could be one of those women again that just never looked, or didn't obsses, or worry about losing the pg. Guess those days are over! :(
HUGS,

I am also a TP-checker. Sometimes I even really squint to see if it's yellow... or is it pinkish yellow?? is that a speck of something??
I think there should be some sort of a PAL blessing, and it can end, "And may you never see blood on your TP"
