Yesterday morning I had a bleed. Bright red blood, when it happened there was no pain, just like a bubble feeling then wet. There was enough to wet my underwear and soak through to my trackies. When I went to the toilet it was dropping. I went straight to the hospital and it had stopped, other than light pinkish discharge. I had bloods done later in the day which were 18000, my scan earlier in the morning placed me at 5w6d. Since then I've had mild cramping sensation, almost wouldn't even notice them but I'm hyper vigilant about it ATM. Slight amount of darkish spotting. I've felt bloated and been visibly bloated during this whole pregnancy, so hoping something "popped" and has nothing to do with bubs. I'm swinging between extreme sadness and crying to trying to stay positive. I have another blood test Sunday to check my hcg levels and see if bubs is still there. Any words of encouragement, any stories or experiences good or bad would help. I'm onbed rest ATM and just feel like I need to share and give myself some real info so I can stop my head buzzing. While I already have two boys, the second one with its own complications, I realize now I was very Blaise and really didn't realize how I should be taking it easy. Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry to hear what's happened OP. I have had 2 m/c so I've been there. This pg I am currently 10.5w and have had 2 episodes of bleeding. The first was early and after blood tests found that hcg was still rising. The second episode we had a scan and all was fine. Please try not to worry, as hard as that is. So many people have told me that they bled right through their pregnancies so there can be a good outcome. Look after yourself.

I don't know if this is necessary helpful or related but I had regular period for the first 20 weeks of my pregnancy. It happens. I hope everything is ok for you, try to focus on other things and remain positive <3

I have bled with both of my successful pregnancies, about as much if not more than u have described. It is pretty common amongst my friends. It was mostly when my period was due, but not always. Fingers crossed, and try to think positively, as hard as that sounds. Thinking of you.

Hey..

I only posted about this a few days ago. I had something similar happen to me last week. I went to the ER and got checked out - everything was fine. They think mine was because of a small blood blister popping from the placenta or a bleed around the placenta finally trickling out. I really hope that was the first and last of it. It was VERY scar though - I was so worried I was losing the baby. My husband fainted walking to our Ultrasound he was so worried too!

Apparently bleeding in pregnancy is more common than you think. It can happen for so many reasons. Hang in there - pregnancy is such a tough ride. Anyone who says it isn't is lying. If you haven't already go see your doctor and get everything checked. I hope everything works out for you... ! Thinking of you!!

Good luck OP, hope everything works out fine

You are doing all you can with resting so hopefully the down down makes the difference.

I hope everything turns out well op. I've had bleeding in 4 out of 5 pregnancies, twice it turned out well. The times that I miscarried the bleeding didn't stop/slow.

I had two bleeds in my pregnancy. One was cervical (from DTD) and the other unknown what it was from. I had an ultrasound each time to check on baby. I also had cramping up until about 7-8 weeks (felt like I was constantly on the verge of having my period). Baby is just fine and 21 weeks now.

I hope it turns out as well for you.

In my first pregnancy when my next period would have been I bled a small amount of pinkish, brown blood. It was awful waiting for it to be over, I would have been about 7 weeks and it was before my dating scan so no reassuring heartbeat to think about. Good news is that little scap is now a big happy, cheeky 2yo. He was born full term, and with no further complications in the pregnancy.

I hope that is what happens to you op, lots of women bleed in early pregnancy and go on to have healthy kids...

I had a normal period in the first month of my last pregnacy. I stressed out for the first 12 weeks, but we had a very happy outcome, born in June.
