Realise the only answer to this is "call the midwives to get checked out" but just wondered whether you think this is something I actually NEED to call the midwives about.
32 weeks. Have marginal placenta previa. I have been told "you may have some bleeding," though until today, nothing.
I went to the loo and wiped myself and just noticed that the wipe was "tinted" ever so slightly pink. I wiped again, and there it was again. I had some discharge on crotch of my knickers and wiped it with the tissue and again it was light light pink.
Have since been to the loo, checked knickers, wiped, whatever, it's all stopped.
Had a very stressful day yesterday with a work deadline and some bad news and had a bit of a meltdown yesterday evening feeling like I couldn't cope. Have certainly felt emotionally exhausted, but not felt anything physical is wrong.
If I call them, they're going to say come in and let us check you. But that's because I'm private (live overseas, here to have baby) and they are very thorough. It's a fag because the hospital is a long drive away, I have a load of plans etc, but if I start this whole process of calling and asking, I'll have to go.
What do you think it was? What would the NHS do?
