35w1d

So I am really getting tired of the uncertainity of everything with this pregnancy.
I had my doctor's appt today and was really hoping to get some answers, instead I am left with more questions.  When I went to give the urine sample I noticed my pad was pretty full with brownish red blood.  This is after only 2 hours and a larger amount than what I have been spotting for the last 4 days.  I would only spot a little bit on the pad over 24 hours.  I told the doctor this when I first saw him so he did a pelvic exam which all he did was confirm yes there is some blood, but it is brown so he wasn't very concerned.  No answer on why I am having this.  I am pretty sure this is a sign my cervix is changing since it is totally different from the bleeds I had the last 2 months, but he never measured or checked anything.  That was pretty much it for my doctor's appt. 

I was hoping the monitor would show some signs, maybe contractions or something, but nope it was another normal NST with no contractions at all so I don't know what to think.

The good news is I only have to wait until Monday to be seen again since the doctor is away next week I will be put with my old doctor.  The bad news is that then the following appt means I will have to wait 10 days to be seen again so I will have two 35 week appt and no 36 week appt.   Not very happy about this.  It looks like the only way I get any help is to keep going to the hospital and monitor things at home. 

In other bad news, Saturday's plans are now cancelled due to the storm coming tomorrow.  I am so pissed because I wanted for this class for dd since November.  They rescheduled it for the 23rd, but I am not sure if I will make it to then.  Also not sure what to do about dh's course.  This storm couldn't  come at a worst time.  Of course it also means if anything happens to me I will have to go to St. Luke's since there is no way I will be able to drive to Providence in a blizzard.

On better news, my cold is on the mend, thank goodness.  Still feel sick, but at least I don't feel like death like yesterday.
