  • Bleeding at Six Weeks

    QUESTION

    Hello,
    I am 6 weeks pregnant with my second child. I have been having some vaginal bleeding. I am wearing a liner but the blood is only there when I wipe. I'm not having cramps or any bad discomfort, just the normal feelings when your tummy is preparing itself.

    Please can you advise me if I need to seek help or advise or if I'm just being over sensitive?

    Thanks,
    Mel
