I'm not sure who to phone eg midwife, hospital, doctors etc.
Yesterday after non penetrative masturbation I spotted light pink/brown blood for about half an hour when wiping. This has since cleared up and I had no pain etc. this also happened a few weeks ago and I had a scan Saturday (private gender scan) and baby was all ok. They said my placenta was anterior but didn't mention if it was low lying or high up etc.
I am Very worried the spotting after orgasm is due to low lying placenta or an incompetent cervix which will send me into early labour eventually. I am 17+5 today. I have had orgasms in this pregnancy in this pregnancy where no bleeding has occurred at all.
Now my midwife doesn't reply on the day takes her a few days to get back to me. It's not an a and e emergency but I'm not sure what my doctor can do? Who do I see? I just want my mind put at rest?

I phoned triage who put me through to early pregnancy unit but they won't see me because the bleeding has now stopped :( now what. Triage won't see me and they won't. What do I do?

Managed to get my self in at the doctors but I know the bigger issue here is my anxiety problems. I really need to mention that today as well as its just not healthy at all is it.

Hi hun, you've done the right thing, you need support to manage your anxiety, especially being pregnant.
Be honest and open with your doctor, good luck.
