My first thought when I woke up was that today was 16 weeks, and then I walked to the bathroom and felt a huge gush. I assumed it was a ton of CM, so I checked my liner and saw that I had soaked through the liner with blood. Last week I had some spotting and I didn't know if this was just more of that, so I called the OB and they told me to go to OB Triage and my heart sank.

They told me the blood might be from a yeast infection so I should treat that, and if I have any more bleeding I should come back. My cervix is closed, though, which is good. I'm confused about the part where I'm supposed to count contractions, because how do I know when/how many I'm having? All I know is that sometimes I'm crampy and sometimes I'm not.
