Slight spotting.....

[chantal21]

This morning when I went to the bathroom, I noticed some slight spotting, it wasn't much at all, but I of course can't help but think, WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON!??!  I am almost 24 weeks, and with my last pregnancy had so many complications and had spotting once right around 27 weeks with lots of contractions. So far this is the 3rd time in this pregnancy that I have had spotting. The other 2 times were very early around week 7. I am going to let my midwife know today. I have an appt. on friday to check to see if the BV I had is gone or not and possibly to check my cervix to make sure nothing is happening. I wonder if I should be seen earlier or if I should put myself on bedrest for now and just wait until friday? I'm not having a lot of contractions thankfully, but yesterday, 2 of our piggies got out of their pen and I had to help my brother chase them back in. I noticed all day yesterday after that happened, I had this heavy feeling low in my tummy, and my belly was just super sore. Not sure if I over did something or what and maybe that is causing the discomfort and spotting?
Can't help but worry and I am trying not to!

My midwife told me to take it easy and it could have been from chasing the pigs back into their pen. I have an appt. friday morning to check my infection and I will ask them to make sure my cervix isn't changing. I had a tiny bit more tonight, but nothing alarming at all. Baby is still moving and no crazy contractions. I am however getting the pelvic pain again which has me thinking the BV has not cleared or just came back. I also have some stringy thick discharge. I will know for sure on friday. Hoping all is okay....and yea, next time the pigs manage to get out....I will be asking someone else to do it! LOL

I would def let your midwife know and see what she thinks.  I don't think you can be too careful...especially with your previous history.  And I would def put myself on bedrest for now.  Oh, and no more chasing pigs around :)

I did this very thing at 24 weeks. I have a history of MC and I too was very worried. They told me that everything was fine and that it could have been from my cervix which is super sensitive and anything can make you have a little bit of spotting if it's irritated. I'm sure you are fine. Get it checked out just so you can have some peace of mind. :-)

I had some spotting around the same time in this pregnancy and got it checked out to make sure everything was okay.  It turned out that everything was fine, but it definitley made me feel better just to know.  I would would call for sure and then just see what your midwife thinks.  I hope everything is okay and I'll keep you in my thoughts!!
