Struggling with potential miscarriage

Yesterday I started getting a small amount of brown discharge on my pantyliner, but my pee would be clear and clear in wiping. I had this a few times yesterday but not constantly. Today I’ve had a couple small amounts again, and then I had once on wiping - it was light brown and liquid, and I’ve had the odd stringy brown long bit within. I’ve not had anything else really on the Pantyliners, but now I’m feeling as though I might’ve lost the baby. I’d be around 5 weeks, nearly 6. I’m struggling so much and really worried. I am booking in at the EPU tomorrow late afternoon for a scan but it’s consuming me for the moment. Has anyone else had this experience in pregnancy?

* to add I’ve not so much been cramping, I’ve had the odd mild belly ache

It’s not universal, but when I had my miscarriage, I had a noticeable sharp pain the night before our scheduled 9w scan and measured exactly to the day they scanned, meaning it was lost that am.

I had a miscarriage and viable pregnancy. Both pregnancies I was spotting around 7-9 weeks. For the miscarriage, I just noticed spotting of brown blood about 7 weeks in, and then within 2 days it was more pink and red. I did a blood test. The hormones were not increasing. On the ultrasound, there wasn’t a heartbeat.
For my viable pregnancy, I had brown and pink discharge. I did a blood test and my hormones were fine. Then on the ultrasound they found 2 heart beats.

Im so sorry for your worry. I do wonder if its too early to scan you though? Im sure i was 6wks 5 days and they did see the pregnancy but warned me that they might not

Are you hydrating? You can have these kinds of symptoms if your not hydrating properly I had similar when I was early on

C section tomorrow

Having my c section tomorrow at 39+5.
Due to go in for 7:15 then I’m no 3 out of 3 ladies to go down.

I’m absolutely petrified can anyone give me some positive experience examples 🤣.

Obviously can’t wait to meet baby girl but the rest of it is giving me the fear 🤦🏻‍♀️

Baby Amara is here 😍💗

I got induced on Tuesday 18th August via pessary then after 24 hours the midwives broke my waters at 5pm yesterday. After less than 7 hours of labour I gave birth to my beautiful baby girl this morning at 12:04am and weighs 7lb 12oz. I asked for an epidural but it failed and before I knew it I had to push and she was out in a few minutes. My fourth and last baby and I'm so blessed to have her 😍🥰

Good or Bad Circumcision?

Hi moms, FTM here, has anyone experienced baby boys penis having a little swelling near the shaft, kinda fluid like small, no odor or pus or bleeding he is 1 month old. I just don’t feel like it should be like this but the pediatrician said she’s seen it an it resolves on its own as their penis grows. But I am concerned and she gave us a referral for a urologist but I am trying not freak out but I am like anyone else had this.

Also I am sensitive right now so no horror stories just positive or relatable ones and what you’ve found?

Nausea remedies

I am about 7 weeks pregnant and have been bed ridden for about 2 weeks. Constantly being sick, feel nauseous all day, can’t do much and don’t feel comfortable going anywhere because sickness is unpredictable. Increasingly just becoming so bored and getting fed up of this as someone who is normally very active and would go to the gym etc. Any suggestions to help the nausea and stay sane? 🫩

No symptoms/bump has shrunk?!

I’m 17+5 and my bump has shrunk (I didn’t know this could happen?!) I have zero symptoms and I can’t feel movement (never have). I’m really panicking but I can’t get a reassurance scan anywhere. Is this normal??
