Yes it can happen its happened a few times to me just keep an eye on it the bleeding usually stops pretty quickly maybe there after you clean up and maybe again a little while later but shouldnt be continuously bleeding/spotting .

i experienced it at 32 weeks and it was ALOT of blood but im currently 37 weeks and my baby is perfectly fine. it was due to rough sex and my cervix being sensitive. so i take it easy now but i believe it 100% normal.

I was in hospital 4 times when I was pregnant due to bleeding, quite heavy and with clots. Said I had cervical ectropion, basically irritated cervix. But all was fine, baby was born 39 week very healthy and is now a feral but healthy toddler. It’s so scary but it’s more common than you think. Get checked every time you see blood but it’s not always worst case scenario x

Breakouts

Has anyone else experienced their skin breaking out in early stages of pregnancy? My skin had been clear for a year or so after finding a good skincare routine (I used to struggle with breakouts) but over the last week or so has started to get bad again, I really don’t want to go backwards & hoping it doesn’t last for the whole pregnancy!! Any advice would be really welcomed 🫶🏼

Stressed

For whatever stupid reason we have decided that putting our house on the market and looking for a bigger place during the 3rd trimester is a great idea.. also switching my toddlers nursery so i am surviving by the day with estate agents, house viewings, paperwork, midwife appointments, settling in sessions at nursery, all while working full time.. i almost forget i also have a whole baby to buy and prepare for simultaneously too😅

Anyone else super stressed right now and can make me feel less alone?😂

10/7 baby became 9/14

Ms Harper couldn’t wait anymore. Due to hypertension we did a repeat c section early at 36 weeks 5 days. 5lbs 12oz and 18inches. Our lungs weren’t fully developed so we are in the NICU on a c pap. But we’re progressing every day! So hoping and praying by next week if not sooner we can go home 💗
