i just been to the toilet and wiped quite a bit of brown blood. i looked it up and some say its normal and some say it was the start of a miscarrige. im tottaly shittin myself.
I'd try not to worry too much. Brown blood is old blood and often women bleed a small amount around the time their period would have been due. It's not uncommon. Lots of women have this happen. Your ticker tells me you'd be around that time now.
I'd just keep an eye and if you experience fresh blood that keeps appearing and have cramps and pain along with it, then call your MW. Otherwise sit tight and don't fret too much.
I had fresh bleeding in first tri and tbh, unless its a lot and you have severe pain, they tend to not worry too much. There really is nothing they can do, as crappy as that sounds. They can refer you to the EPU for a scan, but tend to do this only if they think there is good cause.
It can be a number of things but as long as it's brown, doesn't go bright red and you have no pains this sounds fine.
Brown is old blood, maybe it's your body clearing out?
Maybe speak to your GP or midwife if you have one yet.
If it makes you feel a bit calmer.. I had bleeding throughout 1st and 2nd tri, bright red too although not massively heavy and everything worked out ok. Bleeding in first tri is a lot more common than you think.
Obviously if it gets any worse go to EPU especially if it becomes painful.
Hi,
Justed wanted to let you know that I'm getting this to. It always scares me to but just wanted to let you know that your not alone. As people have already said if your not getting strong pains (not aches and things) and bleeding then try not to worry, but i know its hard.
I've read this too... Please don't worry too much, if you are worried, call NHS 24 hr service or your midwife tomorrow morning Can't imagine the worry you're feeling right now.
I've read so many posts where people are bleeding and they end up having a very healthy baby.
well i ended up goin into hospital due to crampin, they shifted me over to singleton hospital as they have the equipment. I had to have a swab done and they found quite a bit of fresh blood, so cleaned me up, they wanted me to stay overnight but i didnt want to as no one can look after my lil girl. But i have to keep an eye on it, im not in any pain now. if it gets heavy i have to go back in, if not i got a scan booked for monday morning.
Really pleased you went to the hospital and got it checked out. If nothing but for your peace of mind. If they felt strongly that you may have miscarried, I think they'd have prepared you for the news surely?!
Well, although Monday is not far away, I can't imagine how tomorrow will be for you.
Keep an eye on it though. Are you getting any cramping with the blood?
Really hope everything works out for you hun, keep us updated and let us know if anything changes so that we can try to comfort you HUGE hug for you xxx
I know its very frightning and I had this with my 2nd and dived off to hospital for a scan and all WAS fine and they told me it was spotting and completely normal and it normally happens when the baby is still burying into the lining.
well the bleeding has stopped im still crampin but i just think it was coincedental. The doctor frightened the hell out of me lol. But she didnt kno where the blood was commin from and sed she can see anything wrong so i guess thas good news. I think things are fine now, just gonna rest now lol.
Thanx for all the comments girls i will let u kno wot happens 2moz
Sending very best wishes Jem
I had bright blood bleeding with Isaac in Tri1 and all was well with him, always see your GP/MW and get a scan if you're worried
