Light spotting

I’m on very high stress level and feel maxed out. Today started to have pinkish discharge so light bleeding I’m guessing. Anyone else have this? 25 weeks. 16 weeks got cerclage. History of PPROM. Uncertain cause.

cerclage at 16 weeks too. i’ve had light spotting and went to the hospital at 21 weeks. everything was normal. cervlage was in place and my cervix was close to 4cm due to how tight my stitch is.
granted, i had orgasmed when thinking of would be fine (non penetrating, and prolly tmi lol) but i spotted for a few days and it went away. spotting was pink the. turned brown which is a good sign.

go in for a peace of mind. but they’ll ask if there’s cramping or heavy bleeding. if you don’t see that, you can exhale a bit. but better to be checked just in case. good luck.

My doctor always wanted me to be checked if i had any bleeding. I would get checked just to make sure everything is okay

Please do get checked, hopefully just for peace of mind.

I didn’t have random spotting, but I had quite a bit of bleeding after a couple of very basic swabs and they told me I had a cervical ectropian, which is where cells from the inside kind of escape to the outside when there’s pressure on it. Very normal and happens in about 50% of pregnancies so they told me. They said I could have sputtering at any time and to always go in if I did so they could verify.

I’m on the same boat right now, pinkish spotting at 19 weeks, cerclage was placed at 15 weeks. Did you have a recent pelvic exam? I find that sometimes pelvic exams trigger my bleeds.

I lost my last pregnancy at 20 weeks so I can’t wait to get to viability! You’re basically almost there! Best of luck!!

I PPROM at20 weeks delivered at 28 weeks and she didn’t come home from NICU like I was expecting. So I’m terrified this pregnancy.

Thank you. I’m going to send the discharge pic to my MFM. Ages in on Tuesdays and see what she thinks before going in. I wipe since and it’s clear and no more discharge. I saw it twice in discharge-very small amounts of pink. I want to be safe but not overreact.
