Brown discharge

Im 7w1d with ivf twin. Sunday i start having brownish spotting, so i went in for a scan monday and was told everything look fine, both babies have a heartbeat, didn't spot all day yesterday until today again, my ob told me spotting is normal and if it happen again not to worry until it become bright red but i cant help it but to worry. What u ladies think? I have had previous pregancy that started just like this and didn't end well. Anyone in similar situations? I added a picture of what my discharge/spotting look like. Its only there when i wipe

I had the same and ended up I had a UTI and thrush, but they scanned me and found a blood clot next to baby and said I might bleed as it comes away or might just disappear, I had a scan last week 10 weeks as all was OK xx

Just remember that brown is old blood.
Tell yourself you'll have a successful healthy pregnancy and believe it ✨️
If you tell yourself it's going to be hard you're right.

Thanks ladies, i really appreciate it. Dont know if my scan show any blood clot because they didn't mention that to me. Will see what happened tonight and tomorrow and will let them know. In my previous pregnancy around 7 weeks is when i usually start spotting and then later i find out its a miscarriage.

@Becky is this ur recent discharge? How many weeks are u?

I’m 8 weeks and have been bleeding about the same. Mine varies between bright red and “old blood” dark brown. I’ve been bleeding since 4 weeks, majority of days. My doctor said the baby is healthy after going in and out of the office for sono after sono. He told me stress from worry can cause bleeding to continue. Trust and believe you and your baby are and will be healthy in the future 💕. It’s the only thing helping subside my overthinking.

@Maggie Welch i feel like when im stressed then i spot. But ob told me that i hear a heartbeat at 6w and then again at 6w6d she said my chance for miscarriage has decrease but still that didn't make me feel better. I used to feel nausea but like it went away, my ob said maybe its just in my head 😁

Family culture difference on money

Sorry this is long, I hope some of you get to the end and give advice!!!

So I’m a very thrifty person, things are tight at the moment, the cost of living crisis and my house is heated by oil so things are extortionate. We aren’t on the bread line but we aren’t flush, hubby might be made redundant so there is some financial pressure.

Sometimes I buy my sons something nicer, on the justification that I can sell it on after (♥️ vinted ♥️). I have also been planning on pretty much breaking even most of the baby things I bought from face book market place, side by crib, baby changing unit, etc.

Hubby and I have different money cultures with our families (he’s Indian, I’m British). I’m my family we don’t mix money, we would help each other out if someone was in trouble and will get each other gifts on special occasions. With hubby’s family money is much more fluid, they will give each other things worth thousands of £ just because.

Hubby’s brother bought him a new laptop and a new Google phone, he’s been very generous to hubby. Hubby hasn’t given the same back because brother is much richer.

Hubby and I mostly share finances. If it’s relevant I’m the higher earner.

Now to the point! My babies are so cute they’ve given hubby’s brother (currently single) baby rabies. He’s asked for our baby stuff when we’re done with it. He’s been so generous to hubby I feel really stingy saying no. But I’d never have bought some of the stuff if I wasn’t going to get a return on it - the thought makes me a bit anxious. If we gave all our baby stuff given the second hand value it still wouldn’t equal what the brother had given hubby.


I thought maybe I could give him some stuff but sell some stuff, but hubby said then his brother will just have to go out and buy that stuff, so I should name my price and ask his brother for the money. That makes me feel very uncomfortable, given how generous the brother has been to hubby.

So what do I do ladies? Give it all and suck it up? Give part of it and sell parts on Vinted/FB, or ask hubbys brother for money for it and be uncomfortable? Or do you see another solution?

No one is being entitled or rude here, just a culture difference I need to navigate.

My relationship is failing I feel so alone.. I need a girlfriend to talk to :(

I'm a sahm and I feel so stuck... anyone going through the same thing? I could really use someone to relate to and talk through this with. Feeling so vulnerable but if I don't I won't be able to pull myself out of this

What are we giving our soon-to-be 3yo for their birthdays?

We have the magnetiles, we have the kinetic sand and play doh, we have the play kitchen…

Literally, is there anything left in the world to buy this spoilt kid? 😅

Is it just me?

I’m 35. I have a 21 month old and i’m 5 months pregnant. I have no friends. Everyone has either drifted away or ghosted me. I don’t know what i’ve done but i’m so lonely now. My best friend of 20 years has ghosted me and i’m heartbroken. I’ve tried to reach out to other friends but never get anywhere. I don’t know how to make new friends. I honestly just feel so alone.

Baby groups?

Hello there!!
I hope you enjoying the 5month babies 🫠 the cuteness outweighs everything over here.
We live in the area of Croydon & need to start going to baby groups ( I NEED it more than him though) but I am a little bit clueless. Any recommendations?
We are happy to travel a bit too.
Thanks ☺️
