    Hi guys, sorry to bring the mood down, has anyone ever had a 'red wipe' at under 12 weeks and not mc ?

    I had with no1 at 20weeks and was OK, but 10 weeks I'm guessin more serious? Rang MW, and she's getting EPU to ring me back.

    Can deal with it if I know whats going on, they said unlikely to scan me today :(
    i think the red wipe is very common and usually nothing to worry about unless you have pain.

    when i hade mc i had a 'red wee' there was defo more than a wipe

    Hello

    Yes I've had red spotting with DS and then with DD under 12 weeks and all been well (no apparent reason seen for bleeding)

    Unfortunately there is no real way of knowing exactly what's going on without a scan :(
    I hope they sort you out one soon x

    Thanks pebblespop, I feel a bit of an ache after, but might be paranoia (sp!) just need to know yes or no so can deal with & move on, rather than wallowing for days not knowing.

    moneysaving mamma i had a fairly biggish bleed when i was 13 weeks with my last pregnancy. maternity said to go to A&E, they did lots of test s ( can't remember excatly now as i was a bit upset at time ) i had a scan within an hour or so. and they just said it ws an unxplained bleed. couldn't see why it happened, but all was fine. i still worried tho.

    I've had huge bleeds and the baby has been fine.. at 10 weeks the placenta is working and it could just be a tiny bleed from that or from the cervix.. esp. if you've been playing tents with hubby recently. Or just fromstuff shifting about and stretching. Consider how tiny the amount of blood must be mixed with the usual secretions.. I found blood with a m/c was thick and dark dark red or brown and bitty.. bright red blood has never been a problem.

    pigpen, I must agree with those who said to talk about the relationship issue before any baby stuff. If he's really wanting to leave, I can't imagine many scenarios where you'd be better with him sticking around. Yeah, it would be really hard, and suck sometimes, but you'd have a far better chance of happiness on your own, and maybe later with someone new, than with someone who is primarily in the relationship because of a sense of guilt. btw..is your OH from Scandinavia? (just curious, as my husband is Norwegian).

    No, he isn't but he has 'friends' over there from playing online games and has been over to meet them a few times.

    He won't talk about anything remotely serious or that might cause upset.. though he has said he does want to be here regardless of the baby though he wishes my older ones would listen to something he says.. so do I it would take some pressure off me!

    Same thing happened to my friend in both her pregnancies. She had bleeds at about 8-9weeks in without any problems. She now has a 3 year old boy and is 20 weeks pregnant.

    MSM, sorry you're having a rough day (didn't see your post before). Have you heard anything back about when you can have a scan?

    Midwife said EPU not answering phone, she's left my details in a message but I prob won't hear till tomorrow.

    Had a 'line' and now AF ache.

    I won't post any more details, I know its not nice to read, will just let you know if I ever get a scan.

    Bad timing as family are finally coming up tomorrow and I was going to tell them over dinner! And my Primark day! :(

    Don't worry about posting any old thing you'd like. Really. Not one bit. I know I'm not the only one here who's holding her breath until that twelve week scan, and keeping things mum even though you'd like to burst. I know this site is about money saving, but I think this thread exists to keep all of us sane!

    ((hugs))

    My scan is likely to be in 2 weeks unless I can blag it before then.. but yes, baited breath is about right. and a bit of spotting and not knowing when I actually conceived therefore how far on I'm meant to be.. (I think about 9-9.5 weeks now) which means if I am going to m/c it'll be in the next week.... so I'm knicker twitching and paper inspecting every 15 seconds!

    I have just eaten a whole ham hock to myself.. with new potatoes..

    I have had another 45 minute snooze this afternoon.. I swear I am asleep more than the baby!

    Best go shower the grots and get them ready for bed..
