Hi Aimz26 if i was you, i would deffo get down to the doctors or a&e if you can,just to get it checked out.

Cos i think any bleeding after 12 weeks then you should get it checked out if you are a rhusus negative.

I had anti-D after a tiny amount of spotting (literally 3 or 4 spots of blood) at 15 weeks. I expected the mw to say no big deal but she asked me to come straight in to have it. I'd call your midwife or labour ward & see what they say.

I had a bit of spotting at about 30 weeks. Like joy I called up and expected it to no big deal. I was told to get straight down to the hosp for anti D jab. I wouldn't say it's necessarily anything major but do go and get it sorted.

Let us know how you get on.

Phone the midwife, you maybe able to get Anti-D at your GP's if not you will be sent to hospital. I bled with dd1 and had 2 shots of anti-d, with dd2 i bled 4-5 times so was in and out of maternity getting Anti-D. They will also try and find out why you are bleeding, mine was a cervical erossion.

Is your partner rh - too because if he is is dosn't matter to the baby (although get bleeding checked anyway) Its only if he is + that it causes problems. They always gave me anti -d as a precaution

Firslty don't worry
But any bleeding should be checked out
Phone midwife / labour suite

i had anti-d at GP's given by my midwife. Then realised that DH is O neg as well so didn't have it again when i had more bleeding.

If they don't try to find out why you are bleeing ask to see a obstetrician (sp?) like marne i had a cervical erosion but was only examined after a number of bleeds. Would have stopped a lot of stress if i had known what it was earlier on.
