    Hoping someone may be able to help.

    as you can see I'm 13 weeks, although at my scan I was measuring ahead which would put me at 14 weeks. I have felt a bit funny this afternoon, nothing I can really put my finger on but just not quite right.

    Anyway was sitting on the couch doing some folding and I sort felt a bubble bursting sensation between my legs (sorry if its TMI) we have a visitor over so I didn't say anything, thought it felt weird and I was hoping it wasn't my Pelvic Floor really letting me down.

    Put my boys to bed went to the toilet and there was about a tablespoon of bright red blood in my knickers (no clots) it has been nearly 2 hours now and I haven't had anymore bleeding.

    I'm just so nervous, my first pregnancy was a missed miscarriage, and I had a bleed in my next pregnancy but that was at 8 weeks I have had a scan which showed bubs was going along well. I live in the country and if I go to the clinic tomorrow I know I will just see any old Dr who won't specialise in OB so wonder if there is anypoint or if I just wait til Monday.

    I hate this feeling, we have only just made the big announcement too.

    Edit, went to the toilet after writing this post, and there was more bloody. It is going to be a long night. Guess threre isn't much I can do but hope that it has stopped by the morning,. I hate this feeling

    Just thought I would edit this for anyone reading through. I had an ultrasound and they could see that the bleeding had come from the placenta. I have a low lying placenta, not covering the cervix but close to it which was more than likely reason for the bleed. I'm not 21 weeks and have had no further bleeding and am just hoping that the placenta will move up so that I can avoid a c section.

    Final edit, had a scan at 28 weeks, placenta has moved up and I'm right for a natural delivery. And I have had no further bleeding throughout this pregnancy.
