5 weeks 5 days

Hi lovelies, so I’m 5 weeks 5 days and I noticed some spotting last night which has led into today every time I wipe. I’ve contacted my GP who was fab and referred me to early pregnancy who weren’t the best but have got me in for a scan on Friday. However I’m panicking and so scared something bad is happening. Has this happened to anyone? Sorry it’s my first pregnancy

This started for me at 5 weeks 4 days. It continued on until 7 weeks 3 days, and then just stopped all of a sudden. It was brown spotting in a sanitary pad and wiping and sometimes red when I wiped. I was so worried, but had a scan at 7 weeks and they confirmed it wasn't from the pregnancy. They also reassured me that bleeding is so so common (I actually don't think it's spoken about enough!) in early pregnancy and as long as it doesn't continue heavily or soak through a pad, it's likely ok. I'm so glad you have a scan booked though! Because no matter how much you hear, you'll continue to worry so much! ❤️

It's just so hard waiting on the next thing, especially when you have that worry and dread if going to the toilet. I've also had a friend who had this for months in pregnancy, and she has her wee boy. Hopefully Friday will come quick for you! X

Try to be nice and calm. I spotted a lot in the early stages of my last pregnancy around this time, and it was due to the implantation .. there are lots of reasons why we spot early on and it’s not always the worse case x

Im pregnant 5 weeks and 5 days and reading your post is like talking about me. I have the same thing but my GP were not helping so still waiting for my referral to an EPU. No going to lie I feel a little bit better after reading your comments ladies

She’s here!

Predicted to be just shy of 8lbs…

6lbs 11oz 🩷 and now we don’t have enough baby clothes to fit 😝

They couldn’t remove my ovarian cyst due to complications but, at least she’s out and we are both ok after being in surgery for what seemed like for ages!

Labour Guests

I’ve been talking to my sister about when I’m in labour and who I would want in the delivery room, which is just under 20 weeks away.
It’s my first baby and I honestly have no clue what to do because I want it to be me and my partner alone, but then I would also like my mum there because it is my first, and my mum was there for my sisters first and I want her to be there when im having the baby. But she can get a bit too much sometimes and I don’t want her to be stressing me out more than I probably already will be. Is there away for my mum to be there but come in only when I call her in or ?

Please help 😅🥲
