I can say I'll try and remain calm but I can't promise anything ! But I honestly will do my best to not stress myself out . And it's a complicated story. Baby daddy lives in the Philippines and I live here in Australia. Trying to make this work has been very challenging

its understandable to worry honey.....try and be calm for delivery, easier on both you and baby. Are you single?

I know! Very frustrating but at the same time I freaked ! My midwife told me that if i ever bled bright red blood I was to call the emergency straight away! But I was so worried they might tell me I was being ridiculous and to go home. I tired to reassure myself that night everything was fine but I was up until five in the morning , and I waited until my midwife started her shift, then called. I swore that yesterday his movements had decreased alot, but I think it was because I was stressing myself out over him and I was so focused on the problem. And I know that he has little room to move but being a soon to be mummy, it made me worry!

so frustrating sweetie to do all that work to come up short of the goal...i know whatcha mean by trying to go a shade deeper.....

Thankfully I did use lubricant but when i started, i realized that it wasn't stimulating me, not the way sex does anyway and it was quite painful. I wasn't going all out but i was trying to make myself climax so i did go a little deeper (but not too deep) but failed and resulted with blood on my fingers.

good point Holly....what did ya masturbate with sweetie?

i think it is ok to masturbate... just be more gentle... it sounds as if you got too carried away... or perhaps use more lube... perhaps you weren't wet enough.

Thanks! And i ended up going to the hospital in which they did a check up on me.

They strapped two dopplers on my tummy and kept that on me for about an hour, just monitoring his heart rate. Then they did a swab test and used a duck beak like instrument in which they inserted inside just to see if my cervix was closed or open which in my case, it was closed. They told me there was nothing to worry about and that I'm not bleeding from what they could see, and that if I was bleeding internally that I would definitely feel it because I would be in a large amount of pain!! My bubs is moving alot now which I'm thankful, I had a very restless night when I saw that blood! Lesson learnt!

Go get your self checked out but tbh proabably just the cervix as this is very soft and delicate at this time of pregnancy and if to rough can shed a little. As it has stopped and baby still moves fine chances are nothing but all the same to ease your mind best to go see ya midwife :D
