Question

Body: 

Hello, I am meant to be 10 weeks pregnant with every prolapse going and had leep procedure on my cervix, yesterday I was very constipated all of a sudden as been fine before, I tried not to strain and pushed internally with my fingers but about an hour after I walked up the stairs and had a gush of blood all down my legs and it kept going :( went to a and e but basically they cannot scan me till Monday but I am sure I have lost my baby, going forward I was wondering if anybody uses or thinks those squatty pottys are good? As obviously constipation didn't help.
Thank you for your help

Lifegoeson, I am so sorry to hear what you are going through right now. Please take care of yourself and maybe when you get to the doctor you might find that things are better than you thought. What a thing to have to wait around for. My thoughts are with you.

Meanwhile, as far as the Squatty Potty goes, Christine has written about this, concluding that it is not good for prolapse. Here is the discussion if you want to read it:

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to me, do know where the pictures have gone to on the website of how to sit correctly on the toilet so I can remind myself? To be honest I have paid private so I don't have to wait all weekend not knowing and it wasn't as much money as I thought so pleased I will have an answer at least. Thanks again for your support

If you have seen the drawing of toilet-sitting position, then you must have the book or FAFP dvd. I don't think I've seen it on the website. Hope you are feeling better, please let us know what the doctor says. - Surviving

Thank you, would be lost if you didn't comment would feel v scared, it definitely used to have a picture on the website because I remember a feed about it moving as someone else said they couldn't find it, I do have the first aid DVD so look ok there. The good news is I had a significant bleed , she said I could have had two and lost one but she thinks it was just a bleed but I got to see my one baby and it looks fine.. Pretty sure it was the toilet episode so I need to be v be careful I think. Thanks very much for your comments x

Thank goodness you and babe are OK! Huge relief and thanks for letting us know. Yeah, that drawing might be somewhere on the site, I looked around myself, but didn't find it. On the dvd it's towards the end. Take it easy now! Hugs to you. - Surviving
