Bleeding at 6 weeks

I had some pink spotting on Saturday, then some brown spotting on Monday. On Tuesday I was seen at the early pregnancy clinic who dated me 6 weeks 1 day and they saw and embryo with heartbeat. They could not see anything that is causing the bleeding. Since I have continued to have discharge with brown blood and today there was more of it in quantity. Have people experienced this? Did it turn out okay?

Hey, I’m sorry you’re going through this, I know it can be really scary. I’m currently 23 weeks and everything is going well with baby! 😊 I had spotting basically from the moment I had a positive test, then one incident of fresh red blood at 5ish weeks. Same as you went to EPAU at 6 weeks and everything was fine. Kept having spotting and then another fresh bleed at 8 weeks which freaked me out again so I had a private scan. Everything looked great again and they couldn’t find the cause in either ultrasound. To this day I don’t know what caused the bleeds. I kept having minor spotting throughout the rest of the first trimester. From what I hear early spotting or minor bleeding is quite common and they often can’t find a cause.

I had bleeding at 6 weeks and then also bleeding at 10 weeks. I was really upset but it turned out fine. I’m 20 weeks now. Xx

19wks

I had my anatomy scan today and found out I’m having a boy 🩵 would have been over the moon either way but I’ve been convinced for the past 2 months that it was a boy so it feels good to be right haha 🥹 anterior placenta so still not feeling many movements at this stage but he is ACTIVE! Wouldn’t stop moving and kicking at the scan 😅

Breech position

Hey everyone!
Had my 36 week scan today and found out baby is in breech position :( after some discussion, me and my husband decided to go for a planned c section. Anyone going through the same? X

Early labour or BH?

FTM 39 weeks + 2. Last night I had waves of tightening across my belly with mild period and lower back pain. Lasted a couple of hours and came sporadicly but stopped around 4 am and not happened since. Could this be early labour or just BH? I know early labour can stop and start. Had lots of BH last few days but not with any pain. Also not noticed loss of my mucus plug but baby is low and engaged.

Middle Name Inspiration

I have to register my baby in two weeks, but still haven’t decided on the middle name. Does anyone have any suggestions? I was thinking of giving her something of a biblical meaning. But I’m open to other types of names too (just something with a nice meaning) x

Induced

I’m currently 40 weeks +3 days. I’m supposed to be getting an induction sweep tomorrow but I really feel like this is too early?! I understand that this isn’t compulsory but I was wondering if anyone has refused to be induced. If so, how far into your pregnancy were you?

Induction

So I’m being induced one the 19th of November, I’ll be 39 weeks exactly and I just wanted to hear what others have experienced with being induced. I’m being induced for a raised bmi as per request by my midwife. Just would like to know others experience since this is my first baby.
