Absolutely call your OB after hours nurse they will tell you if you should go into the emergency room or not

yes its normal your cervix is changing;blood flow. your uterus also may be getting rid of old blood and your hormones are shifting, as long as its not clots and your cramping really bad , its ok!

cramping is also normal too, our uterus is stretching 24/7 to make room for baby as long as its not cramping where you are tumbling over in pain, thats also ok!

Totally normal to feel concerned about it. While it can be a red flag sometimes it's also something that's completely normal in pregnancy. I had cramping and spotting with my first and everything was fine but when I got pregnant the second time I had the same symptoms and miscarried. So I would definitely take to your doctor about it for your peace of mind. 🥰

C section at 37 weeks

Hi everyone. I’ve been advised to go for a planned section at 37 weeks. This is due to a low lying placenta that hasn’t resolved. I don’t mind having another section (it’ll be my second), but worried about any implications on baby. I’ve heard that they’re more likely to experience breathing difficulties after a c section at that stage as opposed to 39/40 weeks. Anyone had a c section at 37 weeks and encountered this, or have a positive story?

Periods

Hi everyone!!

Nearly 10 weeks PP after having a C section with my little boy, I bled for around 4/5 weeks after. The bleeding stopped for 3 days and think I then started my first period. I then came on last week for my second period, for 5 days (usual pre pregnancy periods for me)

I came off my period on Thursday and haven’t been bleeding all weekend but just gone to the toilet and soaked through pants and leggings and have blood clots in them. Usually you know when you’ve come on if you know what I mean but I honestly didn’t know I’ve been bleeding.

Anyone else had this? Just worried it’s a late complication
