Had such a scare tonight! (Might be TMI)

I thought the discharge was gone as didn't seem to have any yesturday, but the twinges and stuff were still there. Today, I have no pain or twingers, but when I wiped I had a pinky brown discharge. I've been resting alot, and sleeping heaps so I'm not sure whats going on. I guess becuase I have no pain or cramping and it's not bright red I'll keep an eye on it but its pretty distressing

hmm just cleaned some windows inside, and now i have red spots when i wipe, but not enough for it to go on my underwear I still have no cramping or pain but I will be resting the rest of the afternoon and keeping an eye on it.

Hi Lolpigs, I had a brown bleed at 7wks and around 11wks and a bright red bleed at 13wks with my DD and thought I was going to loose her each time. Before every bleed we had gone to Melbourne or some other place for the day where I had done a lot of walking around with very little rest, but no cause was ever found for the bleeds. At my 12wk scan the sonographer said that my placenta was low lying, but after every bleed I'd have a scan that showed no sign of a bleed at all.
I was on semi-permanent couch rest for most of the pregnancy, first because of the bleeds, and then because I had an irritable uterus as well which caused cramping any time I left the house or did any kind of exercise - even walking out to the backyard caused cramping.
My DD is now 4 weeks old, so there is hope!
Best thing to do until you see your OB again would be to stick to bed or couch rest as much as possible, take breaks from whatever you are doing every 5-10 minutes and make sure you sit down and put your feet up.
Good luck and sending lots of Sticky Vibes!

Thank you Yes spent most of the easter break on the couch resting or sleeping and felt alot better for it! I felt alot better yesturday so cooked for an hour but spent the rest of the day on my butt xD Tuesday and Today no sign of anything so heres hoping!

It seems to have stopped now but will keep up the rest I think until I see my OB again in may just to get the all clear.

Thank you again. Much appreciated all the support. Its so worrying!

Glad things have settled down, it's so scary when it happens.

Well looks like I might have done too much yesturday and it's caused it to come back again. More than last time, but still not enough to be more than wiped on my toilet paper.

I was feeling good yesterday so went out shopping for Mothers day gifts and a few things and was out a few hours walking around I've tried calling my GP and OB but they are both closed as its a Sunday.

Should I call the Maternity Ward at the hospital? Or should I see if it continues I don't know what to do. I don't have any cramps at all. It started a little last night before bed, and had more again this morning.
