Bright red bleeding?

Hi all, this is my second pregnancy. First one was full term. I had some brown spotting on Saturday then nothing Sunday then bright red bleeding on Monday. I’m honestly not feeling many other pregnancy symptoms either besides gas and a headache :/ the nausea went away. I’m 6 weeks. In my first pregnancy i had a little spotting too. But definitely more nausea and boob soreness and FATIGUE with my daughter. But none of that now. The drs can’t see me in clinic until sept 18th and if I go to the ER my deductible applies. They said it’s a gray area like I can either go or not lol. I hate the medical system sometimes. Any thoughts?

Honestly it’s completely up to you if you want to wait for your clinical Appt or go to the ER.

I had some light pink, red spotting bleeding at 6 weeks and thankfully my doctor wanted to see me at 6w5d for a viability ultrasound since I had a missed miscarriage back in January. She saw I had a subchronic hematoma, which she said would cause bleeding but as long as it’s not enough blood to fill a pad it shouldn’t be something to worry about.

I had bright red bleeding at right around 6 weeks and everything checked out to be fine. I did go to the ER. I’m almost 9 weeks now and still holding my breath until 12, but happy that my last scan showed a healthy twinkling little one.

My midwife said mine was because I was baby-dancing and the barrier of our blood vessels are thinner cuz the hormones so they burst easier. Which is no big deal to the baby. But she said if it worries me to just not do it. But otherwise it’s perfectly safe.

Any updates? Dealing with a similar situation

Yea unfortunately the bleeding kept coming and got worse and I miscarried :/ but it rly was a lot of blood so there was no mistaking it. If it’s not enough to fill a pad don’t worry too much but call your provider. Feel free to message me if you have other questions

I’m sorry about your loss

Help

I was getting pretty painful period cramps and during those, I had painful lower back cramps. I had these on and off for like a few hours so from about 10:30pm to 1am?

I’ve had no show, or anything like that.

Is this braxton hicks or early labour pains?

Little girl turning herself sideways in next to me

My little girl tonight, has spun herself so she is lying sideways in her next to me, making me panic!

Is this normal at 4.5 months, do I just lie her back normally/vertically?

Labour??

I’ve had on/off mild period cramps since 9 last night, very irregular and very mild, but I just had one that woke me up. My waters haven’t gone and nor has my mucous plug… but could this be a sign that it’s close?! I’m 40+3 and desperate to meet her!

Caffeine addiction suuucks. (Coffee)

I'm off of literally everything. Don't smoke, no medicine, don't drink except VERY rare occasion, nothing. I drink a large coffee everyday (usually mcdonalds or 7 brew)... or a couple cups of coffee at home if I don't get out. Today I had neither and I was OUT FOR THE COUNT. Awful headache, no motivation, throwing up. Then I drink coffee and it's instantly better. 🙃 coffee is one hell of a drug I tell ya.
