Scan

[joannaB]

Doctor booked me in fir a scan on Wednesday. They say since I have had 2 positives and looking at my veiny breasts it's very likely I am but think best way is to do a scan to confirm as I'll be 7 weeks (8 by scan if I am) Booking me in On wed for a scan. Terrified there's nothing there. ESP as I've had some bleeding last few days

i had bleeding too, unless it it heavy and with clots or pain try not to worry

you'll find alot of women on here have hadsome bleeding in the first tri

 

[joannaB]

It's not coming through, not as heavy as a period and I have no Pain r/n idk I just got s horrid sboibg feeling I'll go and there will be nothing there

 

[roxane 1985]

daft thing for me to say as ive been there so many times but try and relax, and god forbid if its bad news at least you found out very early on and not at a 12 wk scan or anything.

keeping my fingers crossed for you xx

ps what colour/shade is the blood

 

[joannaB]

Fresh red. Doc talked to antinatal dept at the hospital about it, the said to gO to a&e if it gets heavy but I don know what "heavy" is, know. What one Person think is heavy might not be for someone else

They said heavy bleeding or sharP pain or pain in one side to go to a&e

they say if you fill a pad completely or near enough in 20 mins or less then to go get checked out at A and E

with this one i only had one blob and i was straight down A and E then had brown blood for a week after (brown blood is just old)

 

[joannaB]

Well I left it an hour and there was a mark on my underwear from it but like didn't soak through to my clothes so that wouldn't fill a pad, right?

 

[roxane 1985]

no its litterally if the entire pad was red like you had dipped it in paint

but if you find that after an hr there is enough on there to require you changing the pad anyway then it wont hurt just going to A and E and say you think there is a chance you could be having a m/c they will more than likely send you to the epu where there will do an internal to see if your cervix is closed or starting to open, maybe even do your bloods to check for a rise in hcg levels

thats what i get each pregnancy

 

[joannaB]

Problem is I don have Pads. I'm a really heavy bleeder so I use tampons and obv I can't use them

 

[roxane 1985]

hmmm i think then u will have to just hold out till tues, as if your naturally a heavy bleeder it will be hard for you to tell, only other option is to go and buy some towels as see how often you have to change them

 

[joannaB]

Okay don't judge me lol. I got some tOilet roll and made a few folds of if and Put it in my knickers about 2-3 hrs ago and just checked it and there's a few sPots on it. And not all the way through so I think it's stopped in the main but still there when I wipe.

glad you managed to get a scan booked honey. FX the bleeding is just your body settling down with your little bean xxx

 

[roxane 1985]

i was going to sugest doing that with toilet paper but didnt wanna sound weird.

ok so its not too bad at the moment, just take it as easy as you can now till tuesday and try and stay calm.

if it gets heavier at any point just go to A and E hun ok xx
