9 weeks slight bleeding

[CLN1986]

Hey ladies. So I’m 9 weeks today and for the first time woke up feeling slightly normal. However, I now have a slight bellyache and a tiny amount of blood on tissue when I wipe (sorry for TMI)

Should I be worried or wait and see how it goes throughout the day?

Thanks ladies for being there for support xx

I had spotting ( which is what this sounds like to me very common) between on off 6-14 weeks. My baby is fine. The midwife told me the only concern is severe abdominal pain with heavy bleeding like gushing. I did get my GP to refer me for a scan at 10 weeks & it did our ny mind at ease. If you are worried & who wouldn’t be phone the GP to refer you to early pregnancy unit for a scan- I got a scan the next day. The go told me to bed rest & was happy to sign me off work for as long as I wanted. Hope it passes soon xoxo

I agree with Jess on the whole, but if you’re really concerned then contact your gp or local EPAU and they’ll be able to reassure you hopefully xx

My midwife said that I could contact the early pregnancy unit at the hospital if I was worried about any symptoms. She did say that I should only worry if I got heavy bleeding but I would ring if you need reassurance xx

Hi CLN1986. I would ring the EPU for reinsurance, but usually no cause for concern unless a pad full of bright red blood accompanied by pain. Should it become "smelly" you may have a bit of infection, have a rest when you can, but remember when you get up there may be a small ooze again. Hope it soon settles down. Diane

Thank you all for your replies. The spotting didn’t last long. If it returns, I shall contact my GP/EPU. Again, thanks for calming down a worrier ☺️
