Light pink spotting at 5 weeks

Hi! This is my first pregnancy, and I’m currently 5 weeks pregnant. Today, I noticed some light pink spotting when I wiped. Should I be concerned, or can this be normal in early pregnancy? I have an appointment with my doctor tomorrow.

That’s pretty normal. But always go see a Dr if you’re concerned.

I had this early on in pregnancy too. If you get any pain, start feeling unwell or if it becomes heavier or more frequent then I’d speak to your doctor about it- it’s always better to be safe than sorry X

Have you had sex recently? You could be a little earlier than you thought and baby is snuggling up in your uterine lining which can cause spotting. Any intense cramps? Clots?

I had more than spotting at 6weeks, but I couldn't wait til the next day to get checked. I went straight to the ER... I'm now 36+6.

If you ever feel unsure, its better to go, than to not know. Hope all is well.

Saw this statement & wondered what you all thought about it..

How?!

How is anyone getting up, looking after baby, doing all the night feeds, managing to keep the house clean and still look presentable?! I feel like I’m really neglecting myself, barely even getting chance to have a glass of water and brush my teeth, let alone do some makeup and get dressed. Any tips would be much appreciated, my baby just doesn’t seem to want to get out of my arms

C section

Hello ladies,

I had a c section 2 weeks ago. I'm just wondering when you all went back to the gym, running etc?

I know i should rest for 6 weeks but I might start some gentle yoga.

Just wondering how everyone's recovery has been with a section?
