bleeding at 13 weeks :o(

hi there

I am about 13 weeks pg and on friday afternoon I had a wee bit of bleeding which has totally freaked me out! It was quite bright red blood and was there when I wiped. I wore a liner and there was nothing on that I next went to the loo. THere was a bit more blood when I wiped though.
I have never had any bleeding before in both of my last pregnancies so this is scaring me.
Also, I checked my cervix this am and it felt sort of open

Anyone had this happen?
Any advise?
Any ideas on what the blood could be from?

We had a scan on wednesday and saw the baby was fine and with a good heartbeat.

TIA

Oh how scary for you!! I'd be asking your MW or Dr for another scan just to be sure! I had spotting from 4 - 8 weeks which is bad enough!

Have you had Special cuddles lately??

Let us know how you go.

I had something identical, but at 7 weeks and 9 weeks. Bright red bood but only a small amount, not enough to show on underwear, only when I wiped.

I had a couple of scans and they said it was probably from a small bleed in the uterine wall - not from the baby. Everything was fine at my 13 weeks scan - so if you've just had a scan and baby was fine then it's highly unlikely the bleeding is from the baby.

I talked to my mw yesterday and then called again this morning to let her know there has been no bleeding since last night (small amount when i wiped). I am going to see her tomorrow to get a anti-d inj seen as Im O-

Im trying not to worry, but it is scary to see blood when you know youre not supposed to see it :o(

Ill talk to the mw tomorrow about whether she recons another scan would be in order.

Hadn't had sex or constipation leading up to the bleeding....she asked me that already :-)

Thanks for your replys

hi there I had bright red bleeding sometimes heaps (to the point I was balling my eyes out in the toilet cause i was sure id miscarried) at 5, 7, 9, 13 and 18 weeks they still havent found a cause and baby is fine and ticking along nicely. even still I freaked out everytime. Hope it works out all good for you.

Yep, another bleeder here, with lil miss I spotted brown for 10 days between 12-14 weeks, and then all of a sudden started gushing bright red blood, enough that my BP dropped and I had to be admitted to hospital. I had a scan the following day and they said I had a small subchorionic (placental) hemorrhage and it shouldn't affect the pregnancy, and sure enough, it didn't.

Thanks for all your replies. I am feeling a little bit better about it all....Ive had no more bleeding :-)

I will probably get the mw to listen for the heartbeat today when she gives me the anti-d

I had some spotting at 13 weeks too.

I freaked out because I didn't have any bleeding with my first pregnancy and the last thing you want to see down there is blood!

I stupidly googled it and read alsorts about how if it's red or pink blood then it's not good, and brown blood is ok.   My spotting was pinkish.   Googling it was silly though as there are plenty of people who have bleeds during pregnancy and everything is fine in there.

I only had a little bit of blood and it wasn't accompanied by cramps and stopped almost as soon as it began but it was still really scary.

My stepmum who is a nurse told me to relax, rest and wear some loose clothing, and lie down as much as possible.    

I'm o- as well, but my partner is too, so no need for anti-d here.    My ex partner was a+ but Sam was a- so I didn't need one after I had him either.
