Worried

I am calling the doctor this morning when they open. But I am worried and wondering if anyone else has experienced similar and been fine. When I go to the loo I have some brown discharge/blood when I wipe. I am worried that I am miscarrying at 7 weeks.

Discharge can be very normal. I’m only 5 weeks but spotting can happen, so brown discharge definitely can.

Having said that, it’s better to wear your kind and get a professional opinion x

Dear, since I conceived I’m having brown and pinkish discharge on and off.. at 6+4 I had bleeding-fresh blood with one large clot. I immediately rushed to AE and had an early scan.. I thought I’m out this time but luckily everything was fine. Saw my lil peanut and heartbeat.

In the scan there was a large blood spot around gestation sac and doctor said if I see blood no need to worry. I’m still having brown discharge everyday and inside I’m also worried, my next scan is due at 4th Oct.
But better to seek professional advice. Hope this help. Best wishes for you and your baby!

If it’s brown that means whatever it is is old, if you were miscarrying it would likely be bright red fresh blood.
It’s more likely to be implantation bleeding or just something that’s irritated your cervix.

I had this at 7 weeks with severe cramps. They sent me for a scan and everything was fine. I would still call the doctor and hopefully they’ll book you in for a scan for reassurance xx

Hello, I've had this as well at 5 weeks and spoke to my GP and Pharmacist and they advised it was because I was constipated and straining when on the loo. They gave me fibre sachets and since that time, I've had no further discharge xx

Hi I had this last week, it was quite a substantial amount and I had quite bad pains, went to the EPAU, had a scan and all was fine with baby! Just see if your GP will refer you to EPAU and they will do a reassurance scan, in the meantime try to relax ❤️❤️❤️

@Bethany did you call and get given an appointment or walk in like a and e

you need a referral from either a&e or your GP, best to just go through your GP as A&E normally is a long wait

@Bethany oh nooo..my gp only take calls for an hour in the morning and an hour in the afternoon...when I told them I was pregnant (after 36 attempts at getting though) the reception lady said we are booked up l for 16 weeks just call the hospital...she didn't even take my name

I had the same last week at 6 weeks, emailed my midwife as I was worried and she said “From what you're describing does sound normal, especially if pink/brown. Any cramping or pain? Generally we would say if any bleeding more than a teaspoon probably needs reviewing so if you did notice this amount then give your GP or 111 out of hours a ring.”

I had that every day for 4 months in my 1st pregnancy, hated it. A pad every day. Apparently old blood stuck in there

Has your child(ren) ever made an unauthorized purchase on one of your accounts?

I left my son to watch tv alone in my room while I switched the laundry over and not 2 minutes went by before I got a notification thanking me for a 1 year peacock subscription of $116.

Luckily Roku refunded me and I’ve since added a pin but now I know it really is that easy for kids to make quick and expensive purchase without us knowing.

Hi guys

I had a friend group of me and 2 other people. One of them was my best friend. I would play games with her, call her, and text her everyday. I was really really close with her. The other girl was my friend. She never texted me first. We only talked if she texted us in the group chat or if we all played Minecraft together. We all had a Minecraft world together that we played on. I’m not friends with either of them anymore since last night and I’m having a really hard time dealing with it. It really hurts. This is also not related to this situation but I also just lost my other friend. I’m going through so much right now.

Diamonds

So I saw a post on another platform where someone was wondering why anyone would buy natural diamonds anymore since they have lab dimonds now and I commented

"I told my husband I want dinosaur poop diamonds not dog poop dimonds. lab dimonds could be made from anything natural dimonds are made from life on our planet billions of years ago and that to me makes them beautiful.
but there are businesses where you can send ashes of your loved ones and they will make you dimonds out of there ashes so I will be doing that with my 1st dog when he passes. my husband and I have also already decided that when we die he is going to be turned into dimonds and made into bracelets and im going to be turned into necklaces for our children. so they can always hold us close to them rather than just sitting in a jar or in the ground. might as well speed up the process. 😋
In my opinion the dimonds that you are able to choose what they are made out of are more special and valuable rather than dimonds that are most likely made of trash or rotting food."

What are your thoughts and preferences?

Vitamin D

Are you all giving vitamin D for EBF babies? My little boy is 2 months old and only now I started giving it to him but I feel guilty as I was told to start at 1 month

Quick question to corporate “working from office” moms?

Since when is it okay to request work from home at workplace? I’m currently entering 20 weeks and planning on requesting work from home. I know people usually start work from home from the 7th month but I’m planning on requesting since 5th month. Is that okay and acceptable in the corporate world?
