Sorry for tmi - bleeding early pregnancy (pic)

I’m 6 weeks and I’ve been having a bit of bleeding when I wipe, I’ve called my midwife & they can’t get me in for a scan till next Tuesday!
Has anyone had bleeding in the beginning and can advice?

thank you so much for replying! No im not in any pain, I had some on and off pains yesterday but don’t know if it’s ligament stretching! It’s just so hard to not to worry x

it has seemed to ease that pic was probs the most I have had and it’s just tiny bits now so I am hoping it will be okay!

No exactly, you read online it’s ok but then it’s not okay it’s just so conflicting!

Yeah the midwife said that to me on the phone, I’ve put a pad on but nothing is even going on there so fingers crossed x

that’s reassuring so thank you! Yeah they don’t tell you how common it is! X

I had bleeding around the 7 week mark. Just like this. I also had cramping like my period was going to start. It was all absolutely fine. I've now got a four month old x

Aww amazing, did they say what it was that caused it? X

Yup I had this. I was bleeding at 6 weeks. Went in for a scan couple days after, as it was a weekend, and everything was absolutely fine! I had little pockets of blood surrounding the baby. They said it’s completely normal as long as they stayed smaller than the foetus. They came out on their own and now I have a healthy 4 month old 😍

is now gone to a bit more of a brown colour did you have that? X

Yup was literally like the end of a period. It kept going on and off. Occasionally heavier too x

Avatar

oh okay, I was preparing myself for the worst because it’s gone brown and thought that’s it! X

Avatar

Lots of positive thoughts! I know it’s easier said than done. I was an absolute mess when it happened to me. Fingers crossed for you x

thank you x

It could be an implementation bleed chick, try not to stress until you get a check over! I had something similar around this gestation too x

Avatar

thank you. Just need to stop googling lol x

I had bleeding at 5,7 and 10 weeks and now I'm 17 weeks. I think lots of women have it we just don't know until we're in it. Hopefully all these responses reassure you.

Unfortunately I miscarried but thank you all for you responses x
