@Shiv90 ah that's brilliant, I'm delighted for you. Im now 33w 3d I am huge, people keep looking at me shocked that I'm not due any day 😂 which makes me feel even bigger, but I don't care baby is happy and healthy and currently kicking me to pieces so its all good. We didn't find out what we're having. A little girl how cute xx

Hi all

Hoping for some advice

I'm 5+4 weeks and a couple of stays ago started bleeding ever so lightly. It was a pinkish mucus type blood that was only present when I wiped. I had stomach cramps at the same time too and now I'm really worried (this probably lasted 2/3 days and the spotting only happened a couple of times in the day)

The other thing that's also worrying me is my pregnancy symptoms seem to also have died down. A week ago I have raging sore boobs and was constantly having to wee all the time! And now I have nothing!

Did any of you happen to experience any of the above too? Trying to keep hopeful xx

@SassyPants87 I have brown diacharge type bleeding from 6 weeks it got worse and at 7w 3d I was getting occasional pink bloody mucus only when I wiped, I rang the hospital and they told mw to come straight in, they gave me a scan baby was fine but for ages they couldnt figure out what it was. The night of the scan I bleed so badly bright red gushing proper blood I cried so much I waa convinced that was it, as I had, had a mmc in April, I rang the hospital they had me come back in on the friday the first scan they did was on a Wednesday all was still fine, after more bleeding and more scares and more scans they found out I had a sub chronic hematoma and any pressure was causing the bleeding even just going tot he toulet waa enough pressure ro start it lighting and the scan made it really bad it finally stopped juat after 15 weeks after my 14 weeks scan set it off again and gave me another emergency trip to the hospital. So I had bleeding in varying degrees from 6 to 15 weeks, I'm now 35 and currently bouncing on a ball trying to turn this baby head down insteas of breech. I hope you have a good result. My symptoms were coming and going but the nurse put that down to me stressing out over the bleeding. Thinking of you its hard to not get to worried then everyone tells u to calm down.

Hi @LucyDev18 thank you for your response! It's definitely made me feel better. My pinkish blood had stopped however today I've had red blood when I've wiped :( going to call the midwife tomorrow morning and see what she says. Just can't help but think the worst

LucyDev18 · 04/03/2020 21:07

@SassyPants87 I will be thinking of you. Please let us know how you get on with the midwife. I know every pregnancy is different but I am hoping that your discharge is just a small thing. Pregnancy is such a scary time it's amazing and painful but constantly scary well I found it had been, but then I am an awful worrier. If in any doubt the best thing you can do is contact your mw or go to your hospital and tell them your fears, I always found then very good and so kind.
