    I had a bleed at the 6\7 week mark too, no clots just two very red fresh blood bleeds. There wasn't alot but enough to freak me out. It can the be embedding in the unterus wall (apparently). If you really cant wait until the scan (I dont think I could) you can go to your Dr and just have a blood test done that checks a hormone level or something... it's pretty accurate. Someone else will know what I mean and might be a bit more specific.
    Good luck hun, I hope all is ok in there. My sis in law bled copious amounts for about 6weeks and her bub is still there and ok amazingly.
    Big :hugs:

    JMG,

    The bleeding issue is a hard one, because no matter what anyone says to you, you are going to worry.

    It's natural. Is there anyway you can ask to move your us forward in the week? If you have the referral already, just call the place where you'll have the us and ask them for an emergency appointment. If it's a large group like MIA, they can look up other offices close by to you and move your appointment.

    They did that for me 2 weeks ago and I got in really early and was very thankful I only had to wait 2 days instead of 3 weeks!

    I had bleeding with this preg after a full-on weekend around the house when I was 7 weeks. It was dark, but it also came with the low down cramping. That was a worry and I made it through 2 weeks before I went to the Dr for the scan, even though the bleeding had stopped, I needed the reassurance as I also lost my last baby. (Not due to miscarriage though.)

    So I understand the anxiety this causes, and my strong recommendation is try and move the us forward so you don't have to wait all week. Once you see your little one, blob and heart beat at this stage, you'll be able to relax more and try not to worry about things too much.

    Take care and let us know how you go.
