34 weeks and bleeding (but where from?)?

Question

Ok either way i am a little concerned here. I am 34 1/2 weeks pregnant. I lost atleast part of my plug on sunday, but with no blood. I just went to the bathroom to make a bowel movement as well as peeing...sorry TMI...but after finishing i wiped myself starting with the back end and there was nothing but blood, like getting my period. I then wiped the front to see if that is where it came from and there was nothing. So i re wiped the back and nothing this time...so i have to say i did not strain my bowel movements have gotten really soft over the past week. I was tld to call the doc if i had blood, but i can not tell if it came in my poo or if this was a bloody show. Anyone have advice PLEASE HELP!!

I REALLY DO NOT THINK I HAVE HEMOIDS...AS I HAVE NO OTHER SIGNS OTHER THEN THIS POSSIBLE BLEEDING....IS THAT POSSIBLE

Answer 1

could be hemroids could be your bloody show. if the baby is still active and you feel good, no cramps/contractions i wouldn't worry about it. if you do start to have contractions immediately head to the hospital. do not wait until 5 minutes apart on whatever they told you for a full term delivery. you are preterm still and will need immediate medical help.

As long as you feel good, baby is active, and no contractions don't worry about it....yet. unless something changes. mention it at your next OB appt.

Diarrhea can contribute to hemorrhoid formation because the bowel undergoes pressure strains due to the condition. Undue pressure on the veins that make up internal hemorrhoidal structures can worsen existing damage. Internal hemorrhoids are not visible, unless they proplapse (protrude) from the anus, either constantly or during a bowel movement. If this is the case, then you have a grade III or IV internal hemorrhoid. If the protrusion is on the anal verge or the area surrounding the anus, then its likely an external hemorrhoid. Reducing pressure from issues of diarrhea and constipation will help. Not straining during a bowel movement, not lifting heavy objects, not sitting for extended periods, all will help.

An external hemorrhoid is simply a vein located at the anal verge, the wall of which as weakened and protruded. Don't push on it, this will only increase pressure and worsen it. The body has to repair the vein wall and rebuild the integrity. This takes time, perhaps weeks, if all goes well. Use sitz baths and over-the-counter medications such as pads or creams to provide symptom relief in the interim. These won't solve the issue long term, but will give the tissue a better chance at self-healing.

Internal hemorrhoids are a different matter and require more intervention. Your best bet is to educate yourself about the condition, its causes and what options there are to treat it both short and long term. Don't ignore it though, hemorrhoids tend to become chronic in nature, lasting years or decades in some cases.

It was probably either your mucous plug, or hemorrhoids. If you were 'term', I'd say don't worry. However, at 34 weeks, you should always tell your doctor if you think you have lost your plug. Tell him/her about the constipation, so they can determine if the bleeding was due to a hemorrhoid. They may just take a wait and see approach. If something else happens (like more blood), or contractions begin, they will instruct you to come in. OR your doctor might error on the safe side, and have you come in for a check up.

Answer 7

I developed hemorrhoids about 1 year ago. Then I dicovered this system: http://treathemorrhoid.kyma.info Hemorrhoids are in a general sense engorged veins. If this happens in the rectal area, it becomes hemorrhoids. I purchased this method that speak about the most proficient system to discard hemorrhoids naturally, without surgery. It helped me a lot! Now I live really better! I can't acknowledge how rapidly I got relief (pretty much overnight!) I didn't have hemorrhoids anymore and, in the case they will come back, I know what to do :) After following the instructions of the method throb, irritation, shivering and draining was gone. I can guarantee that I got rid of my hemorrhoids problems with this method: http://treathemorrhoid.kyma.info If you're suffering for hemoroids you should definitly try it! you won't regret, trust me.

Answer 8

I would call. I had rectal bleeding before and after my baby and my doctor freaked when I told her I had had it for a couple weeks... Just call tomorrow and they will check... If it is rectal bleeding it's not a huge deal, they just like to know

Might be hemorrhoids. Lots of pregnant women get them. Especially in the last couple months.

"Hemorrhoids, or piles, are one of mankind's most common and nagging disorders. By themselves, hemorrhoids are rarely serious, but they can be extremely troublesome. In some instances, they may mask a more serious disorder, such as colon or rectal cancer. Therefore, hemorrhoids require the proper diagnosis and treatment by a physician.

Hemorrhoids are dilated (enlarged) veins which occur in and around the anus and rectum. They may be external (outside the anus) or internal and slip to the outside. In both of these instances, the hemorrhoids can be felt and seen as lumps or knots. Hemorrhoids also may remain inside the rectum and so cannot be felt or seen. These are called internal hemorrhoids.

What Causes Hemorrhoids?
A common cause of hemorrhoids is simply the standing position, in which all the blood above the rectum exerts pressure on the rectal and anal areas. Other conditions which contribute to hemorrhoids are: poor bowel habits, constipation, diarrhea, pregnancy, obesity, and especially frequent straining when having a bowel movement. However, some patients will have none of these conditions and still develop hemorrhoids.

What Are the Complications?
Hemorrhoids can produce several uncomfortable, but non-serious problems.

Thrombosis and pain -- A blood clot in the hemorrhoid may cause severe pain and usually demands immediate medical attention.
Bleeding -- Hemorrhoids can ooze fresh red blood, whether located externally or internally. External hemorrhoids often cause dripping of blood from the anus while sitting on the toilet. The blood might also be seen as soiling of the underwear. Internal hemorrhoids that bleed may produce fresh blood in the stool.

Itching and irritation -- External hemorrhoids can be itchy, especially if the area is moist and irritated.


Do Hemorrhoids Cause Cancer?
Hemorrhoids do not develop into cancer. However, both hemorrhoids and cancer can cause rectal bleeding. In fact, many disorders can be the cause of rectal bleeding. When rectal bleeding occurs in persons over age 30, and especially in those over age 50, it should be considered a serious problem until an exact diagnosis is made. The physician who directly examines the rectal area can often make the specific diagnosis.

Treatment
Treatment of hemorrhoids varies depending on where they are, what problems they are causing, and how serious they are. Often, time and the normal process of healing clear hemorrhoids with little or no specific treatment. When hemorrhoids require treatment, the following general measures are recommended:

Conservative Treatment

Keep the anal area clean, using a mild soap and gentle dabbing after a bowel movement. Avoid vigorous rubbing of the area.
Keep the anus and hemorrhoids as dry as possible, using talcum powder and a pad of soft tissue to absorb moisture.
Eat a diet high in fiber (bran) and roughage. Fiber and bran retain water in the stool, producing soft, bulky stools which are easier to pass and reduce the tendency to develop hemorrhoids. Bulking agents, such as Metamucil, Konsyl, Citrucel, and Fibercon, are available in drug stores. These also come in less expensive generic versions.
Avoid straining when having a bowel movement.
When thrombosis, pain, and tenderness occur, a 10 to 20 minute hot tub bath two to four times daily brings heat to the area, provides relief from the pain, and promotes healing. This is called a hot Sitz bath.
Ligation
A common method of treating internal hemorrhoids is to use a small rubber band to tie off the base of the swollen vein. The blood circulation stops and the hemorrhoid then falls off. Repeat treatments are sometimes necessary.

Infrared Photocoagulation
An infrared light source can be used to coagulate internal hemorrhoidal veins. Often, more than one treatment is necessary.

Lasers
A laser directs a high-intensity light beam at tissue and so produces heat, thereby coagulating or cauterizing the hemorrhoid. This technique is still in the research phase, but may have application in the future.

Surgery

Surgery is sometimes recommended in treating hemorrhoids. It usually is reserved for:
Acute, painful clot (thrombosis) of hemorrhoids
Profusely or continuously bleeding hemorrhoids
Longstanding, irreversible, and large hemorrhoids
When other treatment is unsuccessful
The physician evaluates each patient's case to determine the appropriate treatment.

To Prevent Hemorrhoids...

Eat plenty of fiber, bran, or roughage, or use a bulking agent to maintain regular, soft bowel movements.
Do not delay or try to prevent a bowel movement when the urge is present.
Exercise, especially aerobic, may help produce more regular bowel movements.
Drink plenty of liquids and eat regularly scheduled meals.
Keep the area around the anus clean and dry.
Summary

Hemorrhoids are an especially common disorder and often clear up by themselves or with minimal treatment. Treatment typically is simple and effective, although surgery occasionally is necessary. Hemorrhoids can mask a more serious disorder and, therefore, must be evaluated and diagnosed properly by a physician. People with hemorrhoids who work closely with their physician are usually assured a good outcome and relief from this common disorder."

The same sort of thing happened to me around 32 weeks when I was pregnant. I was concerned at first but...I figure it was just from straining during a bowel movement. I asked my mom and she agreed that I was fine...My son is now 5!
