Poor you, sounds like your having a really worrying time. I would think no nookie unless midwife/doc tells you other wise.

With one of my pregnacies i had alot of bleeding caused by placenta being partially seperated, not low lying so don't know too much about advising you. But i was told no sex until after baby was born, i would deff get an appointment with your consultant to discuss it fully.

Hope that things settle for you soon.take care.

i would deffo see consultant and get a scan, and in meantime put myself on bed rest whenever possible till things calm down and no sex/orgasms or internal exams. hope things settle down.

Sounds good! rest up until next wednesday and let your man look after you.

Have you had any pain? or just bleeding?

I know why u feel when told brown blood is good, i was told the same and i thought well that doesnt stop me flipping worrying! but it really is good that blood isnt red.

Hope all goes well with your appointment.
