Hi. I'm new here (so dont know all the shorthand yet) and also Dad to be.
My wife (DW?) and I had our 12 week scan yesterday and all was well (in fact, we're 13 weeks). Both delighted and have told everyone and then in the early hours of this morning DW woke and found she was bleeding. We spoke to NHS direct who said as she is rh neg we should go to A&E to get checked out. The hospital folk were great and DW had an examination in the early pregnancy ward who said that all is fine (womb closed and heard baby's heart beat). They sent us home with instructions that she is to take it easy for a few days and return if any further problems. We are naturally quite anxious so I was wondering how common such things as this happening are and if you all have any ideas as to how I can help her be less anxious. Bumping in to a neighbour when we returned home a short while ago who said she had had similar naturally helped but DW is likely to be a nervous wreck for the next 6 months in fear of something terrible happening.
