Pink blood?

My partner and I had sex last night and right after I went to the loo and wiped. There was some light pink blood. Earlier on yesterday I had some brown discharge when wiping which went away after one bathroom trip. Should I be concerned? I’m 12 weeks pregnant

Brown is old blood. The pink blood could be from the sex. If it’s stopped after that I wouldn’t be concerned if still bleeding call triage just to be safe I think.

I've read that your cervix can get quite sensitive during pregnancy and be more prone to bleeding if knocked/irritated. I wouldn't be too concerned especially if it's stopped, is not bright red and you have no cramping.

In my first pregnancy I once had a fair amount of blood after sex with my husband at around 11 weeks. Went to the GP and they said that it can happen due to the cervix being sensitive in pregnancy. Everything was fine and it didn’t happen again after that!

I’ve had spotting all of today, it’s rangers from light pink to dark brown. Triage said it’s likely from the sex, I have my dating scan tomorrow but I’m just full of anxiety

How did your dating scan go?

I lost my baby 💙😢

I’m so sorry. 🙁

Remember that it isn’t your fault lovely. There’s nothing we can do to stop these things 💔

So sorry for your loss 😔

Thank you so much everyone. It was a missed miscarriage. I’m trying to come to terms with it ❤️❤️‍🩹

Pregnancy after c section

What time scale did everyone get pregnant again after a c section?
I know the doc said they recommend eating at least a year to 18 months but it took 4 years to get pregnant the first time after being told we could not conceive naturally so not wanting to stop it happening knowing it could take a very long time again but also worried.

Hospital bag (UK)

What did everyone pack for their section? I'm staying in for 3 days due to mental health, not really sure what I'll need to bring, feeling very nervous. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Labour

Think im a bit confused really, i went into traige as was having contractions eveey 3-5mins. Since being here im now having them every 2-3mins which was confirmed with the machine and i think the toco was 90-100 and they feel painful and my lower back is in loads of pain but apparently im only just over 2cm dilated maybe, she has said i can stay here for a bit longer to see if things progress as had a previous quick birth as well but i dont understand why the pains are coming this quick if im only 2cm dilated and feel a bit deflated from it also.

I had a sweep this morning also.

C section trauma ?

Is it a thing to be traumatised by a c section delivery? I’m 4 weeks pp after having an emergency c section. I won’t go into the ins and outs to what got me there 😂
Nothing went wrong in the surgery at all, it was just incredibly intense, overwhelming and scary, but luckily my baby was delivered safe!
However I’m finding my birth experience quite difficult to even think about and when I do, I feel a horrid gut wrenching feeling, my heart aches and I just uncontrollably cry! My body feels really alien to me, like it’s not my own and I just feel really let down.
