Spotting/polyp

Hey all,
I was diagnosed with a cervical polyp around week 6, and was told I may spot throughout pregnancy. I barely have, until this past Friday when I experienced a medium to large amount of brown blood and discharge. The ob saw me within an hour. Did a cervical exam then u/s and LO was all good, thank goodness. She was "reasured it was the polyp."

DH and I left that afternoon for a much needed and long planned romantic getaway, but sadly sex is off the menu: Spotting continues, and while I know it's nothing to worry about, its just so unsettling. Anyone else spotting? Cervical issues? Is on pelvic rest?

  • I haven't had this type of issue, but I can imagine it is scary and concerning. At least it sounds like your OB is not worried about other potential issues so the bleeding is explained. I hope this all resolves for you very soon!! Good luck

  • Yep, I had/have one. It started bleeding so bad that they thought it was a placental abruption at first. Super scary. My MW cauterized it with silver nitrate and I haven't had any issues since then with it. Just take it easy as much as you can and try to breathe.

  • Thanks for sharing your experiences. I'm feeling better and being reminded to take it easy is a necessity for me!
