Spotting

Hi, I have pink spotting after sex, it’s only when I wipe. I’m 8 weeks on Sunday but I also went though a misscarrige in Feb at this stage but wasn’t ever pink. Also have a toddler who’s 2.5 so can’t remember spotting pink when I had him. Anyone else have this?

Best to speak to 111 or the Early Pregnancy Unit. Hopefully, it's just an implantation bleed or something similar. It's quite common to have spotting in the first trimester.

Yeah I had something similar but I don’t think it was even spotting just the lightest of pink hues. I made the decision to stop sex until after 12 weeks scan as miscarriage risks drops significantly then but if you want to continue then yeah I’d take A’s advice and call 111 ☺️ xx

C-section recovery

Hey girls, I had a c section last Tuesday so I’m currently on day 3 of recovery and I do not know how to cope. I feel like I can’t do anything, move , laugh, cough and it’s absolutely horrible. I had a mental breakdown when I first got home today from the hospital as I just felt so useless and in so much pain. I’ve had everything checked over and it’s completely healthy I just think it’s all in the brain. Any tips? As I think I’m losing my mind

Pink discharge

Hi, I’m 11 weeks it’s 1am and I went to the toilet and wiped pink, I’m also having cramping. I had a miscarriage in May. Baby was healthy at an 8 week scan. I’m on the phone to NHS 24 but sitting on hold. Does anyone have a reassurance about this?

Planning baby number #2

My husband and I have talked extensively about possibly having our kids 18 months apart or 22 months apart. We want them close in age. I’m 6 months post partum so if we wanted them 18 months apart I’d have to conceive at 10 months post partum and if 22 months I’d have to conceive in march of 2027. I am wondering what are peoples opinions on having two under 2 and if you’ve done it would you do it again? I was c-section for my first due to hip pain as I had prior hip surgeries so my hips had limited range of motion but even when they went and delivered my first they said due to the size of head and how tightly wedged and engaged he was I wouldn’t have been able to deliver him naturally. So I’d likely need another c section which I’m fine with if it gets the baby here safely.

Side note: due to trauma with anesthesia team I am looking for a different provider and have an appointment set up to meet one. For context I was poked 7 times with an IV needle even after the 3rd time when I asked for them to call the IV team and then I was subjected to 3 spinal pokes because they missed twice. And my partner got separated from me while the anesthesia placement happened even though I was told weeks before I could have him there and then they didn’t update him at all when those failed spinal happened he didn’t find out till a day later when I was able to talk about it.

Ninewells hospital

Hey ladies, just wondering if anyone has recently had a baby at Ninewells hospital? I'm working on the hospital bag and I don't know what to bring for baby! I had my first born two years ago and completely forgot what they provide for the baby in terms of nappies etc.
