Incompetent Cervix - stitch/cerclage - threatened labour

[nat2]

Yes thats what i figured.

Its only of a morning and its only pinkish. No definite red in there!

I've been feeling twinges / kicks in my cervix so im wondering whether shes dropped or is just headbutting me! x

Boooooo! More pinkish bleeding again!

IT was find when i woke up and thought oh good its obviously settle down but i'm at work and have gone to the toilet and its back again!

Its only once or twice tho and then disapears... doesnt last long at all!

Really frustrating me now!

How is everyone today

I had a lot of pains and discharge before and after stitch got put in, I just took each day as it come but defiantly get checked if worried.

Before I had my stitch out I was getting regular pain every 5 min and tightenings it was that painful I really thought baby was going to rip through the stitch. I rang l&d and went in and they said I was in early stages so as a precaution they removed my stitch earlier than planned..
I even had to stay in over night as they thought baby would come straight away, as I was still contracting every 5 min but anyway I was like this for a week still in hospital and still no baby so they decided to send me home.. I was terrified in case baby came at home but boy I knew when I was in true labour I did get hospital and all was ok..
So I baby came 2week after stitch removal

I also was terrified nervous, you name it I was it
Anyways I had gas&air for removal it took 5 min and they showed me it, it's like a thin wire string in a knot ..I didn't feel a thing.
BUT I BLOODY FELT IT WHEN IN LABOUR WITH GAS & AIR

I had a choice for a spinal but they said it'll be a hour or so and more stress so I'm glad I went for it gas ..

Try not worry about removal but at least I'm prepared if I ever needed it again

Good luck everyone

Nat2--- I always found it worse in a morning cos you've been laid down for so long, plus I was on bed rest so when I did stand or move too much it would happen... I had 3 children at home while I was supposed to be on bed rest and trust me I had a lot of pink discharge and regular pains and I always rang for advice so it's worth asking for some support

Maybe your body's telling you to REST your on your feet and you've your little precious inside you been kept safe by a knot holding him/her in.
Maybe you need to take some time off work and I'd go get checked to be on the safe side

4boys,

Thanks. I spend all day sat at a desk and havent moved since i got here at 9am other than to go to the toilet so havent been on my feet at all really.

If it continues ill ring l&d but since posting this earlier on its gone again.

Only seems to be once or sometimes twice a day. x

I agree tht the reason u see pink inthe morning is mostly cuz u v been lying down for a long time nd it prob just collects nd comes out?

I remember u had ths before nd I did too at 27 weeks, no explaination for it.

I still say giv l&d a call nd see wht thy hav to say. Thy may want to swab for infection too.It may just be nothing but u don't want to take risks right now after making it ths far. Hope it goes well over the weekend for you. Put ur feet up nd relax!

Take care

thanks mills. It does always only seem to be when i get up from being lay or sat down for ages... Its as if it pools and collects then appears when i get up. Grrrh. How annoying.

i do think that this lo will come soon tho or as soon as this stitch comes out....

call it instinct but i just have a feeling!! X

I seem to get a lot of yellow discharge when I get up from laying for a while. Today if
I have more bleeding. None since I went into ER last week but I did work ystrdy and car is down sui had to go public transportation. Got home late and went out for a little while this morn. Been going to bathroom a lot today, don't know if that's related but after a bowl movement I wiped and there was kind of a lot of red blood. I've been lying down since and it it's lightening up and still nothing showing on liner. Last time they couldn't find a cause. I'm just gonna hang out here on couch and see what it do.

Please both get checked and rest thinking about you both. Keep us updated. Your in my thoughts

 

[mills80]

Mybabyluv3, sorry its not going smooth for you. The only advice I can giv u is to rest, rest nd rest. Your cervix prob get irritated frm being on ur feet for long.

I found tht if I walked arnd for long or sat arnd waiting for long time during hospital appointments, I would get a lot of discharge, not so if I spent the day in bed.

Yellow discharge is common esp with the stitch, bleeding should always be checked out but thn u know ur body best so u will kno wht to do.

As for me I m such a worry wart I run to the hospital with every twinge nd niggle. But thts wht keeps me sane otherwise I would sit arnd worrying abt things going wrong

I am the same... I couldnt have drop of spotting or colored discharge or I would be getting checked. I am sure it's nothing but I have to have that piece of mind!

 

[mybabyluv3]

The bleeding is drying although now I am getting crampy. I am only 16 wks and know that right now if nothing else eventful is happening they wool just send me home saying threatened miscarriage.

 

[4 boys]

Mybabyluv3-- aww Hun please please go get checked your just going to stress more and it's not helping one bit

I had constant cramp pain discharge bleeding all the way through my pregnancy I honestly don't know why and how I got as far as I did.

Your always going to think the worse and you won't ease till you see your baby on screen, please go and even if you come home and all is ok just rest...
I'm not good in awkward situation I just break down but you need to talk to see if all is alright?

Today is a good day so far. Bleeding is all clear. I'm starting to think that when I do too much it gets irritated around the stitch. Thanks for thinking of me. I try not to get too worried about every event. I would be a nervous wreck.

 

[mybabyluv3]

Nat hope everything stays quiet and uneventful for you too over there.

 

[4 boys]

so glad your all doing ok

Rest is best and when you need to do something your body tells you when you need to stop

I've got my hands full with my 4 boys don't think I could imagine another as I know I'd need a stitch and I think it was my first and last stitch experience

Hey,

Everything all good... had a little more pinkish discharge last night but nothing major.

Saw midwife this morning and she said LO's definitely dropped and her head is right on my pelvis ready to engage.

She has confirmed that the period pains / cramps im getting and the sharp twinges diown there are all causes of little miss moving down and getting ready to engage!

Stitch out in 2 weeks..... eeek. Scared and excited! Dont know what to expect!

Hope you are all ok! xx

 

[mybabyluv3]

Must tell that little miss to chill out down there, lol! My daughter kept poking her hand out through my cervix and she still a handful 13 yrs later, smh.

Just got my first injection. Wasn't so bad. Hope I'm one if the ones with no side effects. Not lookingforward to this for how ever more weeks.
