As the resident worry wart and queen of panic... I would say... don't worry about it. If you start to spot...call your Dr... always safe then sorry I say. But.. if you are like me.. you have prolly already been to the bathroom at least 20 times since you started this email.. just to check?? ( I know.. I would be..

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2004 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 Hi Ro, I had something like that for 2 weeks with this last pregnancy and it totally freaked me out, mine was with a brownish discharge though. It was like a micro balckish squiggly thin thing, I cannot even describe them but I had it for awhile and even went to the docs who could see them in the exam and told me that it was common and they had no cause for it gbut for me to relax. I hope yours is okay too.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 Shirley: They are actually the same thing. Below please find the law, the Dietary Health Supplement Education Act of 1194, called DSHEA that the government applies Dietary supplements (also called nutritional supplements, or supplements for short) were defined in a law passed by Congress in 1994 (see the box below).1, 2 Dietary Supplements... a.. Are taken by mouth. b.. Contain a " dietary ingredient " intended to supplement the diet. Examples of dietary ingredients include vitamins, minerals, herbs* (as single herbs or mixtures), other botanicals, amino acids, and dietary substances such as enzymes and glandulars. c.. Come in different forms, such as tablets, capsules, softgels, gelcaps, liquids, and powders. d.. Are not represented for use as a conventional food or as a sole item of a meal or the diet. e.. Are labeled as being a dietary supplement. I hope this answers your question. If you have any others please feel free to ask.
