When to worry about bleeding

Hello.

I believe I'm 6 weeks 4 days. I noticed some blood earlier. It was bright red.

It wasn't a lot (more than spotting) but still showing a smidge when I went to the bathroom afterwards. Now, obviously terrified that Im losing the baby.
Got an early scan booked for next week and checked to see if they could bring it forwards but no other appointments are available.

The anxiety is unreal.

I’ve had exactly the same lovely, I phoned my GP on Monday and she not to worry too much and to keep an eye on it. She said as long as I feel okay in myself and don’t feel unwell, light kneaded or really sick then just to keep an eye as it can be normal in early pregnancy. I’ve got my early scan on the 23rd an I’m just waiting until then to see if everything’s okay. It scared me! But feel a bit more reassured now that a few people on here have said that they’ve had the same thing. Fingers crossed everything’s okay. It does just make you so anxious! X

Thanks. Hopefully its a one off! Just so much out of my control that I can't do anything about

I think as long as its not accompanied by severe cramping and its not enough to fill a pad (this is what they told me) then it should be okay but yeah just keep an eye on it and good luck with your scan next week 🙂 x

Hopefully! This is my second time of having a bleed. Completely agree with you, it’s the not knowing if everything is okay or not. I know how you’re feeling

I spotted until 10 weeks in my pregnancy and my son is now 4m pp so just know it’s always the worst case scenario x

I woke up with the same this morning your post is exactly what I would have put. I have had cramping since I missed my first period. And now the spotting has me so nervous. I’m waiting to do my labs tomorrow to see. Good luck

I've had two lots of little bleeds (bright red when wiping in this pregnancy with little clots)
One was a 5-6 weeks and the other was Saturday at 9-10 weeks and I had a scan today and saw a healthy baby.

I get that it can be nerve wracking and it's horrible waiting but just look after yourself until the scan xx

Sadly, the scan today showed there's no sign of a baby. And a negative test. Looks like the bleeding was a miscarriage. Even had a positive pregnancy test yesterday.
Thanks for the support, but I'll leave this group now.

Sorry to hear this sending love

where has the time gone!!!

C - section

Hello lovelies, I’m getting closer to my date of c section.

Can I ask how it all went for you? I felt prepared and now I have this awful feeling what if I bleed out! I’m sure that’s not the case. But I just wondered how it went, and how the aftermath was. I have seen on social media people say it’s horrendous but then I speak to friends and family and they’re like yeah it’s not easy but you can cope! You can walk, etc. I think it’s the unknown… lol!

Also were you all sick during your procedure and did you all get terrible trapped gas? If so what tips do you have xx

Best way to be induced??

I just found out I may need to be induced early due to preeclampsia and having a generally bigger baby which of the ways to be induced do y’all recommended?

This is a bit strange.. but hear me out

I am 36 weeks and 4 days today.
I had that feeling, you know when you are trying to take a tampon out on your end of period and it kind of hurts because the tampon is dry? I had that sensation today?

Now I feel like I have to push something about my vagina? It kinda tickles but uncomfortable. I’m not having any pains at all anywhere btw so can’t be baby ??

cheating dream

i need advice but PLS DON'T JUDGE!!!
last night i had a dream, i always used to dream my partner cheating on me with my friends, or being super mean, but since we had our baby those dreams disappeared. for context, we haven't been able to have sex yet, I'm 12 weeks pp, and my pelvic floor is so tense, and it's awful.
last night i had a VERY weird dream, it was so realistic, and different from others, he handed me his phone, and ask me to help him handle this girl, like annoyed? in the chat this girl was super obsessive, and messaged him a lot before he replied. she asked him to sing a song to her, and he sent her a voice message singing it, and other voice messages i couldn't listen in the dream. i wrote her to stop, and she was angry, telling me he started it. then i confronted him about this (still in the dream) and he changed his attitude, he seemed so guilty and said to me he had deleted some messages. i don't remember much else, but i woke up with the URGE of checking his insta messages. we've been together for 5 years, and I've never checked his phone, and neither has he (that i know if, at least) and contained myself, but I'm still very much concerned about it. it felt like an epiphany, a revelation or smth like that. I know people might think I'm overreacting but i can't get it out of my head, it was so specific.
i though about asking him to show me, but i know he'll be bothered that i don't trust him (i would be too in his place), but if he's cheating he would say that to make me feel bad. also i thought about checking his phone in his sleep, and then ask him to see his reaction, but feel so bad, i wouldn't like if he went through my phone without asking, even tho I have nothing to hide.
please, be kind!!
