Hemorrhoids- blood- help?!

This is going to be all so tmi, I ’m 32 weeks pregnant and on Monday evening I started getting awful pain around my bum, I’ve had haemorrhoids on and off during this pregnancy but I didn’t speak to anyone because I had it in my last pregnancy and knew it was just one of those annoying symptoms at this stage. However, yesterday it was so bad I couldn’t walk, my partner had to do school run because I couldn’t even walk to the kitchen. It literally felt like my bum hole was falling out. I contacted GP who told me to drink loads, eat fibre and in the meantime apply some ‘organic’ cream. Well all I have is literal bum cream for my daughter like sudocrem and matanium, so I used the yellow one as I swear by it. Over night it has got rid of the majority of the hemorroids, accept for one which was the most painful and was still there before I went to bed last night. Got up this morning for a wee and there was half a teaspoons worth of blood in the toilet and on the tissue. Double checked it was definitely my bum and not something to do with baby, which I definitely think it is. I don’t really know what to do now, the GP asked if there had been any blood which there hadn’t, do I just continue to keep an eye? Do I call the GP back? I go to the DAU every week for blood tests so know if I’m worried I can speak to them. I’ve never bled from my bum before so have no clue what the next step is or if I should just continue as normal and hope it resolves😅

If it’s fresh blood, it most probably is from the haemorrhoids, so don’t panic. It probably is worth getting the doctor to check though for your own peace of mind x

The GP can prescribe Anusol :)
