This happened to me - I bled, panicked had several ultrasounds and blood tests all showing it was fine. At one stage I even had a big gush and I thoguht for sure it was over but nope - DD stuck there! I had a pretty stressful 3 weeks but as soon as I hit the 12 week mark and had that ultra sound I felt fine. Also stopped feeling morning sick then too.
My ob said to me that once you have a positive ultra sound then there is only 1% chance of miscarrying. That's pretty good odds to me - but I know how it easy is to panic and worry. OF course check with your doc again - you have the right to feel at ease. Best wishes!
Thanks all.
I am still nauseas as anything, and my boobies are still sore. No more red blood at all, no pain and barely any brown 'old' blood either. Am yet to call doc, but will do shortly.
Thanks
I have had the same in this preg. I lost my fist preg at 6 weeks so I was megga stressed when I bled in this one. I had old blood and a few bright red bleeds and I thought the worst too, but every time I did have a bleed I either went to my doc or the hospital and I always got a u/s - I did it for my peice of mind. It turned out I had a small tear in b/w my placenta and the wall that had a small bleed and the blood was coming out slowly. Eveything is AOK and im nearly 33 weeks!
Good luck I have my finger crossed for you!!

Bah I shouldn't have spoken to my GP.
I was thinking so positively too.
He was worried about the amount of blood I lost last night. I haven't really lost any since.
I have to keep an eye on things over the weekend, and rest and if I continue to have spotting, I make an appointment to see him next week for another ultrasound. He also said that I will probably miscarry.
Now I'm all teary, even though I am confident that bubs is ok. At least I will know for sure next week.
How will I get over the weekend without worrying??
If you dont think that you can make it over the weekend then can you go to your hospital ER? Thats what I did and they got me an u/s straight away and it really out my mond to rest.
They are very unlikely to not give an upset pregnant woman a quick ultrsound to make sure all is ok.
Tell them you've had a largish bleed, and want to check bub.
I have had multiply bleeds with this pregnancy. It started at week 7. I have had bleeding twice a week up until week 17, and then once this week. Eveything is fine though, but it is still really stressful. I hope that everything is ok with you and your bub. If you think you can't go the weekend, go to your local ER, preferably today or tomorrow, so they can take blood and do a scan. I hate the ER, been there 3 times with this pregnancy, but at least you'll find out and hopefully be reassured.
