hi. as the title suggests i have recently found out i am pregnant for the 2nd time 20 years after my first (i was 19 with my first) My first pregnancy was ok i ended up with pre eclasmpia and a prem baby.
So recently found out i was pregnant. for the last 18 months my body has decided to be irregular so my last period was Oct 2017. With this in mind we decided to book a private bonding scan to find out how far gone i was. Went to scan and they had to do an internal scan. The lady asked lots of questions which didnt really put me at ease. she asked if i had been bleedig which i hadnt. She then said she saw 2 fluid sacs which measured at 5 weeks and that she was going to refer me to the EPU.
After easter the EPU rung and have invited me in for a rescan on 11th April. I still think it might be too early to tell on things but dont know as things have changed in 20 years!
Since Friday i have started to bleed, i rung my midwife and she didnt seem to bother and just said if it becomes heavy go to a&e. She seem to have a very couldnt care less attitute.
The discharge i have been having has been varying in colour and type. i had red blood, small clots, brown, clear sticky fluid but not heavy just on and off all weekend. Should i be worried?? i havent been feeling any cramps just more like pressure every now and again but it comes and goes and doesnt last long.
i have looked online and it seems many ladies have this bleeding around the 6 week mark which is where i am at the moment.
i have been lucky and only been pregnant once in my life and i have waited 16 years for this gift but i am now worried about this bleeding as i never had anything like this with my first.
just really worried and i know i still have a long way to go before i am in the safer zone. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
