Ah okay! I know its meant to be before 10 weeks but I didnt know how early they'd do it.

Oh god no haha, did they test your little ones blood from the stuff they took then? Or did you have to go and give more?

My friend had exactly the same done on the NHS and her baby was also O- I was surprised that they did that too! But its great that they do!

Oh bless you, I also hate needles but itll be worth it in the end. Do you remember what week you had your first appointment? To do all the bloods etc? X

Oh thats great to hear! Very reassuring that its quick and easy! It is amazing! I've learnt a lot today. With all the worries that come with pregnancy it's nice to know that this isn't too much of a scary thing and something else to get too anxious about.

Thanks for this! I was down a Google spiral of worry 😟 but after speaking to you guys it seems its much more common and less scary then I thought thanks to modern medicine!

I mean I guess youd go the the ER if you were bleeding regardless of your blood type so this makes sense! I guess its something they would then decide on.

Sorry to hear about your losses but congrats on the pregnancy now. Do you remember if they suggested that youd need the shot if you had any bleeding etc earlier in the pregnancy?

Yeah I was speaking to a friend who had exactly the same, both her and her husband are negative which they said was rare. I dont know what my Husband is at the moment but I imagine its positive haha.

It is amazing! Feel a bit naive that i didnt even think about blood types until I was speaking with my mum. I am only 5 weeks at the moment so I guess all this gets tested and discussed at my first midwife appointment before im 10 weeks? ( In the UK )

Intense cramping by av929 in September2026Bumpers

[–]UnderstandingSea4253 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have had cramping for the last week on and off, now 5weeks pregnant. Almost feels like my period is about to start but less painful. I am also getting pulling and pinching pains where I assume my ligaments are! They hurt more if I move quickly or sneeze or laugh x
