Freak out

Yesterday, I awoke to bloody underwear at 7 am. Red blood. I went to the bathroom and there was more when I wiped. Went back to bed for an hour. When I got up the second time, more blood in the underwear and more when I wiped. I tried not to freak out - got a shower, then went back in the bathroom. This time, when I wiped, there were long, stringy clots on the TP.

I immediately freaked out. I called my OB; apparently they weren't open b/c an answering service paged the doc for me. He called back quickly, and didn't seem too concerned. He told me to call the office back at 8:30 when they open and schedule an u/s "just to make sure everything's okay."
I called them right at 8:30, and the soonest appt. they had was 1 pm.

Then I called my mom. Then I got into a fight with L b/c I am "too negative. It's probably nothing - I stress out too much." On the way to work, I called my friend K, a nurse. Not even an OB nurse, so I don't know why I always call her about this stuff. She said, "1 pm is unacceptable. Call your RE and see if they can get you in sooner. If not, I will meet you at the ER." Ahh, that's why I call her. She always knows just what to say.

I called the RE and, thankfully, a nurse answered the phone. I told her what was going on, she got off the phone for a minute, then returned and told me to come in right away. Idk why, but the RE telling me to come in right away freaked me out even more. I walked into work, told my boss I had to go to the doctor, started crying while I telling him (awesome), and then walked right back out. On the way to the RE - still crying by the way - I called L to tell him to meet me at the RE, I called Kelly to tell her I got in, and called my mom just b/c I wanted my mommy. My mom started crying immediately.

When I got to the office, they brought me back right away, and got right down to business. Both babies looked perfect; measuring perfectly and h/bs were 176 and 185. Baby B was even dancing around and moving his little arms and legs. I asked Dr. T about the spotting and the clots and he said he didn't have an explanation for me. No active bleeding in the cervix, and none in the uterus that he could see. He also said to get ready, b/c these babies are going to be driving me crazy for at least the next 50 years, and I don't doubt that for a minute.
