BLOOD!?

Question

Okay, ladies. I'm 36 weeks; this is my 3rd pregnancy. My last little one was born at 34 weeks. To make a long story short- I went to the bathroom and wiped and there was a little blood on the TP. Thought I was seeing things so I wiped again and there was a little more. I have NEVER bled with any of my other pregnancies- not even a little bit- so I am a little worried. No sex in the past 24 hours either :/ anyone have this happen??

Answer

At this stage in your pregnancy you need to call labor and delivery, this could be your bloody show & you could be going into labor

Answer

I would go to l&d just to be safe.

Answer

Not to scare you but that's how my placenta abruption started. I'd go to labor and delivery immediately.

Answer

Don't freak out- but you could have partial tearing...meaning the placenta is starting to pull away from the uterus prematurely and you need to be admitted. That's worst case scenario though. If it were me, (and I haven't had any bleeding at all) I would monitor the amount of blood. Wear a pad and check it often. If it doesnt stop, I would go in. Better safe than sorry.

Answer

It could be part of your mucus plug. I wouldn't be concerned unless you're filling a pad with blood. Your body is probably just gearing up for labor.
