Should I go to EPU?

Hi,

Sorry for all the thread I've been starting. Wondered if I could have some advice. Just want to know whether or not you would go to EPU. I am 6 weeks today (I think) and have had a little dusky pink spotting since yesterday am - very little but def there. I think it comes after pooing but it is def vaginal.

I can go to EPU today but as I am so early it's possible they will see nothing even if everything okay which presumably will just make me more worried.

I was feeling a bit sick last week but this has disappeared now though I do need to wee a lot now and have sore (but not painful) boobs.

Also would it make any difference if I was to wait until tomorrow to go to EPU? I mean, if somethign is up they can;t do anything to prevent it can they? Or can they?

Thanks for any advice.

I went with DH and it was all fine!Hurray!
We saw the heartbeat going like the clappers, the baby is the right size for 6wks 1 and the EDD is 14th December.

Made it all very real esp. for my husband who has gone all quiet and pleased.

Staff at Homerton EPU really lovely as well.
First antenatal appointment May 4th and will be rescanned at 12 weeks.

Great news miffster. I think I am due a day after you (if it all works out - I still feel need to qualify everything with that!)

Congratulations yellowflowers!

I had to go for an early scan at 9 weeks after some brown discharge and one of the most helpful things I was told about spotting and what have you is that 'It's not 'normal' but it's common' you should always get it checked out but it's often fine, it happens a lot! Good luck to you too miffster
