Am I worrying too much or should I go get checked?
Show your support
First questions they ask is have you had any blood loss, discharge loss or clear loss. Please call and get checked out to prevent any worrying 🩷
Have you had sex recently ?
I haven't been in this situation as I'm only 16 weeks with my first pregnancy, but just wanted to let you know I can relate to health anxiety and being worried about worrying too much. It's exhausting and I feel for you. But I would echo what has already been suggested to call the maternity unit for advice. They will know better than any of us who don't know you or your situation and would just be guessing (even with the best intentions). And even if they ask you to go in and everything turns out to be fine, it's better to know for sure and be able to put your mind at rest.
Please go get checked, you can never be too careful. Let us know how you get on! Hope everything is ok x
Thank you everyone! I will definitely give them a ring and see what they suggest. I was asked if I had sex and yes but it was about 4 days prior to this starting so I didn't think of that
The challenge is that everyone is different. But when l had lots of mucus like discharge is was the plug that was coming off and me going into labour, all 3 kids were the same.... one at 32 weeks. If it is (I'm not saying it's definitely that) you maybe in early labour. I would get it checked, better safe than sorry.
If something you worried about you always need to get checked it’s better to be safe than sorry ☝🏼
Do you have a maternity triage number to ring for your hospital? If you do they will be able to advise whether or not to come in. They will WANT to hear from you if you have these kinds of worries.
