Bleeding. Again =(
I posted last sunday asking if walking could be the cause of my bleeding, I rang my midwife the next day because it seemed to have stopped and she gave me the 'there's nothing we can do' just put your feet up etc.
So, it stopped and now i've just been to the toilet and there's blood. More than last week. My husband and I are off to A&E. If anyone can spare some positive thoughts, we'd really appreciate it.
I just wanna go to sleep =(

Re: Bleeding. Again =(
I'm sorry -- I know how stressful this must be. Hang in there and I hope they're able to do something for you!
I also bled around and my 13th week (very heavily) and have talked w/ other women who also bled around the same time- I don't know what the common thread is but found it odd that we were all around 13 weeks. They had no diagnosis for me and now I'm at 17 weeks and everything is back to normal.
Definitely keep your feet up and rest as much as you can. If you're not cramping and bleeding through pads every hour I'm sure you will be fine. I've been where you are so I know how hard it is to believe you'll be okay but you have to put faith in it!
Stay optimistic and take it easy!

Hi there. I bled a little bit on 1st day of week 13 and also the next day. It was probably just about 1 tsp to 1 tbsp but enough to scare the crap outta me. I never had any cramps so I just took it easy and it turned to brown d/c almost immediately.
It can be common to have a little bleeding around this time. One thing I read said the placenta is completely taking over at this time and a little bleeding can happen during attachment. Not sure if this is 100% accurate or not though. Maybe stop your walk for a few days to a week or so and see if it doesn't stop. Good luck.
I'm back from the hospital. The guy done an internal exam which he said was fine. He took bloods. He said that he's going to organise a scan for me tomorrow just to make sure. He said something about the placenta. I was too out of it to really remember, and now too tired. I'm just glad everything looks ok.
I'll update tomorrow after the scan
I haven't walked much since last sunday and haven't bled. I didn't think it was normal to bleed after walking either.
Thank you guys for all the positive thoughts
Hope they find a reason at your ultrasound!
I too have been bleeding daily for the last week+. Dr put me on bed rest on Thursday and while I see an improvement, there is still bleeding/spotting. Baby is doing fine but Dr is unsure of the cause. I have a low lying placenta but not even low enough to be considered a true previa (under 2cm away from cervix- 1.7cm in my case). Even walking causes increased bleeding for me.
Let us know how the appt goes!
Good Luck!
It is amazing how many women bleed(spot) during pregnancy. I was on complete bed rest for a week and the spotting stopped. They also said no exercise or relations until everything stopped.
I wish you well.
