Hey ladies! This thread is moving so fast!

I have a question for you all: Is anyone else spotting after sex? I know that in most cases it's pretty normal, but how much is normal? And how often? Jeez, this stuff is nerve-wracking!

 

[pooch]

This tread is flying by lol.
I have noticed spotting after sex. But I notice it's only there at first and then after when I use the bathroom again it's just a bit of brown blood/discharge than that's it. It's very nerve wrecking

I should add, one time I made dh "not go too deep" and I didn't spot at all!

Wow, I can hardly keep up with this fast-moving thread!

I had an appointment last week at 5w2d and they actually did a scan. They could only see a sac and a little circle (yolk sac). Anyone else have a similar experience?

 

[crowned]

Yep, moonflowermay, I had the same thing. They said they'll do another scan in two weeks to actually try to estimate my dates as it's too early to be accurate. It was fun to see our little bean though!

Ladies, I need some reassurance. I have had absolutely no spotting the whole time, until this morning (exactly 6 weeks today). MS nausea started hardcore yesterday, and I've been dealing with it almost non-stop since then, but then the spotting this morning really scared me. It wasn't really bright, just pink-tinged CM, but most sites say it can happen after sex, and we didn't have sex last night. I'm worried. Please tell me this is normal and baby will be okay!

 

[newfielady]

crowned I wouldn't be too worried about a little spotting, especially if it's just pink tinged cm like you said. Most sites (and drs too) will say not too worry unless you go through a pad an hour and have heavy cramping. My advice would be don't worry unless you have what you would consider a light period. My m/s never had any cramping and I only had a "light light period" for 3 days. Try drinking lots of water a reclining with your feet propped up a bit. I read that helps to stop spotting/bleeding.

 

[N3WM0MMY]

hey ladies!
I am 6 weeks tomorrow this is my first so everything is scary but being a part of bnb has really helped. I have had cramping here and there, nausea in and out, very sensitive to smell, tender nipples not breasts yet, and having to pee like crazy. Not to mention i am completely drained of energy all the time with silly mood swings. is all this normal? my ob said that my hormone level is way over 1000.
Plus i am so bloated i feel like i am already showing...none of my clothes fit.
But I love all of it, like I said its mine and my husbands first so its all very exciting.

[Spiffynoodles]

Thanks for the reassurance, ladies. Blessed22, let us know what the doctor tells you tomorrow!

Morning. I got some vitamins over the weekend and I think they've made me constipated. Marvellous. Also, my symptoms have receded mostly so I am trying not to panic.

 

[Sambles]

Hi ladies, can I join please?

I'm not sure of my exact due date because I had long and irregular cycles but I think I'm between 6 and 7 weeks pregnant which would give me a EDD of mid March. I've got a scan next Weds so will know more then

MsCrow - I'm with you on the constipation. It's horrible isn't it? It makes me feel so bloated and lethargic and sorry if tmi but I'm worried that if I strain at all I will hurt the baby My symptoms seem to come and go. One day I have very sore boobs and feel sick all the time and the next day I feel fine. Weird.

Morning Ladies, just been catching up as I eat my honey shreddies (for the B12 and and the folic acid amongst other things) and cannot belive how many posts there are since yesterday morning.

Firstly, Loolindly - good luck with your scan today - I really hope you are feeling better and you have a good result. I will thinking of you.

Whoever it was that said about spotting after sex, I asked the dr about it as last time I spotted after sex - she said that the cervix is just a whole lot more sensitive now so I guess the tiny vessels can rupture easily and bleed buit there is no threat to the baby. However, if it is heavier or you have cramps please do phone your GP - no point not doing for the sake of a phone call to ease your mind.

Congrats to all you new ladies on your BFP's, there is a whole bunch of us now isn't there.

As for me, I'm feeling fine physically. I'm ok when I first get up in the morning but then I flake about 11-12 at work and pick up again in the afternoon.

Still very sore boobies which I swear are getting bigger by the day but no m/s for me which I'm glad about. Last time I got it around 7 weeks and my baby had died by then so I'm hoping not to have it at all.

Feeling really worried though today - worried for my little one. They're reaching a crucial stage of development and they didn't make it last time so I am so worried I could cry.

Part and parcel of it all I guess

 

[Sambles]

Luv My Bichon - I think it's only natural to worry, even more so after you've had a loss and been wanting a baby for so long I will keep everything crossed that this little beany sticks for you xx

 

[ktswissdom]

morning all...
just wanted to say ditto Sambles' comments to Luv_My_Bichon...

 

[Kafalaf]

Heeey! thought i'd join i'm due on the 11th of march 2012! i'm now 6weeks & 5 days!
Times going so sloowwwww and it still doesn't seem real to me I want to have a scan so it will become real! 2 more weeks to go until I can get in touch with a midwife! feels like forever

what are ur symptoms like hun? today, ive got hardly anything!

I've had sickness for nearly 5 days morning afternoon and night! my breasts are seriously on fire and I've had back ache so I've made the OH give me frequent back rubs time is still going so slow for me I've done around 3 more CB digi, just to make sure that it's changing. It's now on 3+ but I still don't believe I'm pregnant need to have a scan and see the baby

 

[loolindley]

Ok, I've just got back.

I had an internal scan, and she could see the yolk sack, and the baby, but although she said she could see the heartbeat at one point, when she went to show me she couldn't find it again, so it her words "it is coming and going". He has booked me in for another scan on the 3rd (a week tomorrow), and told me complete rest until then.

I don't know what to think. I'm wondering if she saw a heartbeat at all. I wonder if because I O late, then I am not as far on as I thought (I could be up to a week behind what the LMP calculator said), and the heart hasn't developed enough yet. I wonder if because I filled my bladder before hand, then found out that you need an empty bladder for an internal that that's why there was a problem. I wonder if it's all over

This thread is moving so fast! It's hard to keep up! Ok so I think you will be fine.. If you have Irregular cycles I would just go with the fact that your not quiet as far as you thought. Try not to stress to much.. I also have irregular cycles and if I went by my LMP I would already be 8-9weeks.. I know I am not that far!!! So I think I'm about 6 weeks.. I had an internal scan on Friday gone so when I was 5w 6d and There was a sac and a TINY little blob with this TINY flutter.. It would be VERY easy to miss but apparently that was the heartbeat! Don't stress untill your next scan ok!
