Bloody Show

Bloody show is the presence of a small amount of blood or a pinkish discharge. This usually occurs around the 40th week of pregnancy. This can indicate that you are in the First Stage of Labor (early labor). Many women used to believe (and some still do believe) that this occurred during childbirth and was a large amount of blood. This misconception came from long ago when women had complications during childbirth and were possibly hemorrhaging. During actual childbirth, there should not be a lot of blood.

This calculator predicts ovulation dates based on the date of your last period and the length of your menstrual cycle. It provides approximate dates only. Having intercourse during the few days before ovulation will give you the best chance of becoming pregnant. Since sperm can survive for several days, keep in mind that these are not the only days to become pregnant.

Remember: If your periods are irregular, this calculator is not a good way to predict your ovulation dates. Speak to your doctor about other ways to help you identify when you can conceive.
