I'm still pretty bummed out about the whole thing though and emotionally exhausted. I'm just glad he said the baby was fine/fluid levels are normal/ and otherwise everything else is good </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-33-weeks#post-2687279 Thu, 26 Jan 2017 13:46:29 +0000 pinkb 2687279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had what I thought was random bleeding at 32 weeks. I went to the ER per my Drs orders and I was actually in labor and didn't know it. No pain or anything. It was blood and my mucus plug, bloody show.<br /> Good luck this afternoon, hope it's nothing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-33-weeks#post-2687197 Thu, 26 Jan 2017 12:37:16 +0000 littlejoy 2687197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Others would need to weigh in on this, because I lost my mucus plug during labor ... but, isn't it possible to start losing your mucus plug as early as 33 weeks? Would it be bloody or clot-like? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-33-weeks#post-2687186 Thu, 26 Jan 2017 12:19:08 +0000 sandy 2687186@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pinkberrry: I had so much random bleeding with my most recent pregnancy. I had bleeding randomly through week 16. Then again randomly a few times around 30ish weeks. I always went and got checked at the doc to make sure everything was ok - ultrasound for baby and checking to see if they could find the source of the bleeding. Always it turned out to be ok and couldn't find what was causing the bleeding. One time around 30 weeks it happened over the weekend so I ended up going to the ER and they did an ultrasound and again everything was fine. I just had unexplained bleeding - good signs were no sharp pain etc. The bleeding would range from heavy spotting to a one time gush of blood that would get lighter over the next day or two. My baby was born totally healthy and is 9 weeks now. </p> <p>For peace of mind you would probably want to get checked if the bleeding persists or if you start having pain. But most likely it's fine and some women just have unexplained bleeding throughout their pregnancy </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-33-weeks#post-2687185 Thu, 26 Jan 2017 12:18:33 +0000 Pinkberrry 2687185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I passed what looked like an old clot at 3am and now it seems that inhaling very slight residual blood that's very very light. I spoke with my dr this morning and he said to just keep an eye on it. I have an appointment with my perinatalogists already on the books for this afternoon so we'll see what he says. I also spoke with my doula this morning and she said it was probably nothing as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-33-weeks#post-2687149 Thu, 26 Jan 2017 11:16:38 +0000 LAZB 2687149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had placental abruption with my third pregnancy, accompanied by heavy bleeding which was dismissed as "normal" by the L&amp;D nurses and doctor. Everything turned out fine, think goodness, but I will be more forceful and getting checked out in the future.<br /> That said, it sounds like you have a very small amount of bleeding which can be pretty normal.<br /> It never hurts to get checked out just in case </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-33-weeks#post-2687071 Thu, 26 Jan 2017 09:54:14 +0000 Truth Bombs 2687071@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would get checked out. I bled most of my first pregnancy but had a little more than what was typical for me at 32 weeks and it turned out I had a very bad UTI with no other symptoms. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-33-weeks#post-2687061 Thu, 26 Jan 2017 09:50:02 +0000 Banana330 2687061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>call your doc.. just to be safe </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-33-weeks#post-2687025 Thu, 26 Jan 2017 09:14:02 +0000 edelweiss 2687025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my friend had some bleeding like that around that time. everything turned out fine, but it was scary and she did see the doctor when it happened. </p> <p>how is the bleeding now? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-33-weeks#post-2686936 Thu, 26 Jan 2017 06:36:53 +0000 LBee 2686936@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did bleed at 34 weeks. I had some complications (wasn't my first time to bleed that pregnancy and was extremely heavy), but they did tell me that it was common to spot when you first start to dilate. I'd still get checked out today, though. </p> <p>The really scary stuff - I.e. Placental abruption - is usually associated with heavier bleeding than you are describing and pretty bad discomfort. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-33-weeks#post-2686933 Thu, 26 Jan 2017 06:31:21 +0000 ShootingStar 2686933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would insist on an ultrasound. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-33-weeks#post-2686927 Thu, 26 Jan 2017 05:07:56 +0000 Pinkberrry 2686927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This evening I was doing my nightly floor stretches and when I sat up I noticed a small amount of vaginal bleeding. I have no pain and the baby is still active 2 hours from when I noticed the initial bleeding. I called my dr on the after hours line and he said to keep an eye on it however if it becomes more active or increases in quantity to go to the emergency room. The total amount of blood wouldn't have filled even the smallest pad but I'm obviously still worried. There is no pain, and I've been checking and there seems to only be a tiny bit of occasional blood (checking every 15 mins). Anyone experience this? I'm about 33 weeks at this point with no history of complications. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-wish-it-were-summer#post-482366 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 03:42:47 +0000 jaguar 482366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NYCaliMama: I wish!

The dresses are cool to wear, but the excessive drinking and PEEING is getting ridiculous. This week is a heatwave here, we're in 40celcius + temps all week. Hold me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-wish-it-were-summer#post-482346 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 03:03:14 +0000 shopaholic 482346@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NYCaliMama: yikes! From one extreme to another! Next time hopefully you'll land in Spring or Fall! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-wish-it-were-summer#post-482316 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 02:00:52 +0000 SAHM0811 482316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been 9 months pregnant in an extremely cold winter and an extremely hot summer for both kids. summer did have the perk of a more comfortable and easy wardrobe, BUT physically it was more exhausting, because the heat alone can cause you to dehydrate fast. Once I was getting my last pedicure before giving birth and I was doing absolutely nothing (reading a magazine in a massage chair)... And I almost fainted from the heat. Mind you, I kept up with my water and snacks, the AC was on, and it still was an issue... So yeah, i think being super preggo at the peak of a hot summer definitely has more (serious) downsides. I was drinking water like crazy to combat dehydration, and at the same time going to the bathroom like every hour since baby was so big and really pressing on my bladder... Not easy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-wish-it-were-summer#post-481956 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 21:30:07 +0000 shopaholic 481956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jaguar: Yet you always look so cute and comfy and glowing in your bump pics! </p> <p>@Foodnerd81: Probably the BEST season to be in 3rd tri would be the Spring! </p> <p>I'm just having a hard time with boots &amp; jeans these days, and keeping all the layers down. Though, Mother Nature must've heard me complain, because we've had 2 nice 70's-ish days now! Evenings are still freezing though and I don't want to go anywhere! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-wish-it-were-summer#post-481825 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 20:29:10 +0000 Foodnerd81 481825@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm actually glad to have done the first trimester in the winter-- I can only imagine it would be that much worse in the heat and humidity. Of course, that means I'll deal with being 9 months pregnant in July in the northeast so I guess I will see how I feel about it then. I do think summer clothes will be easier when I'm huge though-- maxi dresses always make me look pregnant anyway! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-wish-it-were-summer#post-481800 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 20:14:50 +0000 jaguar 481800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You guys.. I'm pregnant &amp; it's Aussie summer right now and it's AWFUL. I would gladly swap season with you! xxx </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-wish-it-were-summer#post-479607 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 21:12:56 +0000 Smurfette 479607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree the maxi dresses and flip flops would be so nice to wear right now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-wish-it-were-summer#post-479412 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 20:21:20 +0000 shopaholic 479412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NYCaliMama: Yes! I mean there was a frost advisory the other day. It can be up to 70 in the day and down to 34 at night. wth? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-wish-it-were-summer#post-479211 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 19:39:25 +0000 SAHM0811 479211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: I know! I hate how it's super cold inside vs outside! I can totally relate to that... I'm all bundled up and "freezing" at home, but then one step outside, and it's so nice! The mornings and nights can get pretty chilly though inside or out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-wish-it-were-summer#post-478912 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 18:21:07 +0000 shopaholic 478912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rattles: Oh I would LOVE to go swimming!<br /> @Alivoo01: @Bao: Yeah, maybe our Summers aren't that bad, especially because it's dry and no humidity.<br /> @NYCaliMama: LOL! Totally perspective! Today is one of the nicest days in weeks, but our house is always colder than outside. I've actually opened the windows to "warm up" the house for the first time in weeks or months! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-wish-it-were-summer#post-478824 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 17:51:43 +0000 HLK208 478824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wish it were summer too (even though I'm not pregnant) I just miss being warm! I miss sunny days, taking DS swimming, going to the beach but on the other hand I REALLY need to drop at least 10 pounds before I put my summer clothes on again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-wish-it-were-summer#post-478791 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 17:43:30 +0000 SAHM0811 478791@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Interesting, I'm in SoCal and it's gorgeous out... High of 66 today. Probably taking DDs to the park later! This weekend it will hit 68! </p> <p>I guess it's just perspective since I spent the last decade in NYC where it's in the 30s there right now :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-wish-it-were-summer#post-478743 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 17:30:09 +0000 SugarplumsMom 478743@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh man, I can't wait to be back in SoCal, even during winter! It was like summer temps in SD last December and cooler during the summer than it is here in Sweden 2 years ago. I miss San Diego weather! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-wish-it-were-summer#post-478723 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 17:24:20 +0000 Bao 478723@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh gosh, I was super pregnant during record high temps all summer here in MI, and it was horrible! </p>
