Ok i am 39 weeks to start off I havent had any complications this pregnancy as far as anything serious. I asked a question about losing the mucus plug yesterday. I have called the hospital and talked to the maternity nurses and theyve reassured they dont think its anything serios to have looked at right now. So heres the story…Friday morning I lost my mucus plug and had a little pink tinged color when i went to pee all day after that. Saturday morning i wake up and wiped 2 times and had spots of bright red blood and a little bright red blood in the toliet i also had some cramping and a backache all day long…sometimes it would hurt pretty bad and other times it would ease up. Last night I felt like I could possibly be having some contractions and they werent anything strong enough or consistent that i felt like i might have to go to the hospital…a warm bath made me feel ALOT better. I go to try to lay down and sleep and i have horrible cramping suddenly and then had diarrhea!!! After that i was finally able to go to sleep…no bleeding or anything happened during this time period. OK i wake up this morning and have pink tinged when i wipe and a little blood in the toilet…i try to look up causes of bleeding but all i can find is stuff about placental abruption and now im freaking out!! someone want to help me figure this out?
i have had 2 other babies but was induced with both and never had any of this happen to me at home with either of them.
id also like to say that my baby has been moving fine.
This happened with my first for a week before I had her. Drove me nuts! If you are seriously freaking out go get checked for peace of mind.
If it was placental abruption you would be bleeding really heavy (worse than a period) and the L&D nurse would have told you to call 911.
Good luck sounds like baby may be here any time.

If it continues today I would go to the hospital tonight as I really feel that its better safe then sorry sometimes they like to brush things off like its nothing when you are on the phone with them
But it really depends how much blood if you have pads I would put one on and check every hour see if it fills the pad or pantyliner then if it doesnt and its light blood then I wouldnt worry as long as the baby is moving but if its painfull check it out stress isnt good for the baby

Sounds exactly like when i went into labor with my 3rd except 24 hours later i had him at home after the hospital saying i was not in labour!
i would actually go and get checked hun and good luck!

You could be at the very early start of labor but if you are worried then go to the hospital. It’s always better safe than sorry as your are so close to being 40 weeks that if something were to happen they would be able to do an emergency c-section. If I had bleeding I would be on the phone with my doctor tell her I want to be checked out.

When in doubt, go get checked. Just go to the hospital and tell them what’s going on; they’ll check on you and monitor you for a bit, and if nothing is wrong, you get to go home.
