Light pink discharge. Reassurance needed!

Today I have experienced some light pink discharge in my pants, not very much! When I wiped there was nothing on the tissue. I’m 10 weeks and my first pregnancy after a miscarriage, feeling very very worried so looking reassurance! Luckily I am booked in for a scan tomorrow

I recently had this around 8 weeks and I am now 10 weeks, I have an early reassurance scan and everything was ok, i would definitely suggest if it happens again or gets worse before the scan then maybe talk to your midwife is possible or call 111

This is also a pregnancy after miscarriage for me so I understand your concern! I hope everything is ok for you mumma! X

I’ve had a lot of spotting this pregnancy and thankfully everything’s been okay so far (13w3d today). Each time I called EPU and they’ve been great, asked lots of questions & got me in for a scan each time (I had 4 before my 12 week scan!)
Give them a call tomorrow and see what they say, hopefully all is well if its just a very small amount could be a small hematoma or just cervical irritation xx

I had light bleeding (both brown and red) for several days at a time between 6-8 weeks, and just had spotting at 11 weeks this weekend. Panicked and thought the worst every time but scans have shown everything is good 😌

I also had a miscarriage before this pregnancy hence assuming the worst each time, so if you’re worried and need some peace of mind do give your local EPU a call

Thanks girls, I had my scan today and baby way perfect! Lots of movement and a good strong heartbeat, feeling so relieved xx

Boy or Girl??

This is a potty shot scan pic from my 20 week scan - we had a private scan at 17 weeks and were told one gender. Fast forward to 20 week scan and we have just been told the opposite gender.
Would love anyone’s opinions on what gender we are having?! X

Ultrasound at 20 weeks

Am I wrong for being a bit upset? So right when I found it I was pregnant, before I even had a Obgyn visit…I was having pretty bad one-sided abdominal pain. I had went to the ER three times because of it. The first time I was diagnosed with pregnancy of unknown location, so basically a possible ectopic. I had gotten ultrasounds three times the first two times it was still too early to see anything and the third time I went they were able to locate the pregnancy in the uterus. I was around six weeks at the time they could see the pregnancy.Am I wrong for asking my OBGYN for an ultrasound? The Three ultrasounds I did get at the ER were only to confirm location and I didn’t get to see anything at all the monitor was turned away from me each time and couldn’t even ask questions as the ER doctor would explain what the technician seen the whole time. They said pregnancy was in the uterus but said the heartrate of 108 was a little low for that gestational age. and I asked my obgyn if I could get a routine ultrasound and they obviously seen the 3 ultrasounds on my mychart and said that they only usually do one and I won’t be getting one until 20 weeks. So because I went to the ER and got a bunk ass ultrasound I’m now unable to see how things are progressing at almost 9 weeks. I don’t even know if the baby is still growing. When I lived in Michigan before I moved and with my first child I got an ultrasound too many times to count. I guess I’m just disappointed

C-Section mums - what was the most 'painful' day?

I'm having my c-section next week, after having had a natural birth last year. I'm not actually worried about the procedure itself, more about what to expect after. What would you say was the worse day, and when would you say you really started to feel better? Thanks so much!

Reduced movements

Hey! I am 38 weeks and my baby is always very very active but today seems a bit less than normal. I still can feel him moving but less. Would you consider this a reason to call the triage?

Contractions

What exactly do contractions feel like? I’m not sure exactly what to be looking out for. I’ve had some sharp sharp pains on my right side almost like period cramps but way amplified and they last for about 5 or so minutes but they aren’t constant. I have a very high pain tolerance so I’m not sure if that’s a contraction or if it’s her moving and hitting a nerve. They haven’t brought me to my knees or anything but they are definitely annoying lol.

Cesarean post up

Hi,
For mum mums that had cesarean section, how long did you have to use pain relief? I am 8 days post up, and I am still using pain relief cause I still have some pain.
