Spotting at 6 weeks postnatal, please help x
Hi posted in other sections of the forum but have not had much response, I was hoping a second or plus time mum could help me? I am 6 weeks postnatal..
Has anyone experienced the type of loss I have? Im 21 and my second daughter was born 6 weeks ago, I bled heavily for 2 weeks and since then I have stopped and started. Ranging from slight fresh blood loss followed by unusual stringy discharge (stained brown to very very dark brown), to loosing a small amount of brown blood?. Again today I have a tiny amount of fresh blood.
I am extremely worried, I have had a scan and they said there doesn't appear to be anything left. PLUS I have had a swab and their is no infection present. I have severe concerns that something else is happening as I also have pain in the vaginal wall (which was present during pregnancy - but has gotten worse post natal). I was seen in emergency gynae by the on call doctor who couldn't see an obvious reason for the pain. She said my cervix looked 'normal'. I obviously have serious concerns. I just wondered if any mum has had a smiliar experience of this in any of their pregnancies?. I had a smear 2 years ago which came back normal and I have booked myself in for one tomorrow. I am full of worry. Please any help would be greatly appreciated..... xxx
update. the nurse was off sick so i couldnt have my smear... and the doctor did absolutely nothing to reassure me, still waiting on my referral to gynae...
