Hi everyone...Its been the 2nd day that im experiencing and seeing dry blood on my underwear(small spots)...I can still feel my little one moving constantly and I dont feel anything weird or painful...Its just that I panic when I saw the blood on my underwear. I had spotting till the 2nd month then it stopped. Did anyone here experienced it? Do you know any cause of it? Im gonna have my u/s tomorrow but it scares now coz they might put me on bedrest coz of the spotting
please! Could anyone enlighten me?

Thanks,
anna

I had freinds who bled a lil during pregnancy (i didn't) and they were all fine. Ask the doc today. Did u go already and have the u/s? Did u get to find out what you're having?

yep I had my u/s done just 2 hours ago...Saw my midwife had all blood screening results everthing was ok. She said that brownish dry spotting on 2nd trimester is not to be a cause of alarm(so was really relieved=)) if its like red blood then I huftago to the labor room...But she said everythings perfect I could still work and continue everything=) so it was excellent knews...With regards to the baby's gender me and my hubby dont really wanna found out (as hubby says its the major element of surprise...Lol) but the scan was so clear that we saw it anyway and the midwife made a slip calling our lil one a "he". Weve got a 5 year old princess so we are very happy bout the result

have you had sex recently, or ahad a pelvic done? That could be the reason your spotting.

Nope. Its probably because of my change in activity but i'm not really worried about it anymore as my midwife assured me that it happens normally to some women(spotting throughout your prego) thanks for your concern=)

Is everythin alright? How many weeks do you still hufta wait? Take care
