6w 3d with spotting & cramping

[tellytubby]

Hey grake i know exactly how you feel :hugs:
I had some spotting around 10 weeks which absolutely freaked me out!

If it helps you at all, when i had the m/c with my last pregnancy there was NO mistaking it! There were biig clots with A LOT of blood, heaps of bad period like pains. Sounds to me what you're having is VERY mild compared to that!

I had a scan at 5 weeks 3 days, they did a vaginal scan, and you could see the tiniest flicker of a heart beat - so surely you could see the flicker of a heart beat at 6 weeks ?

I hope all goes well for you

Hi everyone,

Thanks for all your good wishes.

I did actually find the forum about bleeding in pregnancy which was good to read (at least i don't feel so alone now). Luckily the spotting has stopped completely, i am only having mild cramps now.

Turns out at this stage everything is ok!
I've had the u/s (which was 6w 5d) and the pregnancy was still there thank god. Everything was progressing as normal, they could see the yolk sac this time which wasn't visible last time. Had the trans-vaginal and the cervix was still high and closed. They didn't see the heartbeat but she said it could maybe still be too early, so I'm scheduled for an u/s at 8w.

Definitely feeling reassured now, but still a little nervous. I just want this 1st trimester to be over!
