    I had bleeding a few times when i was pregnant, and it was horrible each time. Hope that it clears up soon, and everything is ok.

    take care,

    I had similar bleeding and mild cramping/tenderness too around 6 to 8 weeks. It turned out to be placenta growing and hitting a blood vessel.
    But boy, did i WORRY. its NOT fun.
    Do SOMETHING- ANYTHING to take your mind away from it. rent some videos if you can and distract yourself.
    I also had an ultrasound to calm myself down- which worked.

    might be a good idea to rest and see how u go but deffiantely have the scan done at some point it will ease ur mind and possible find the problem
    I had early bleeding with my DD and it eased my mind when I saw the heartbeat

    I had bleeding at 17 weeks (similar to what you mentioned - a mixture of bright red blood and brownish mucousy discharge) and all turned out to be fine. To ease your mind, I think it's a good idea to get a scan. It could just be bleeding from the blood vessels in your cervix, or another subchorionic bleed, or a low lying placenta?

    I'd look into getting a scan just for reassurance. Take it easy - I hope all is well

    I don't have any advice except just try to relax and rest!! Stressing won't help... Just lay on the couch and watch a movie or read a book. Bleeding is scary regardless of whether it is harmful or harmless!!! Keep your chin up and get an US when you can!

    Lots of love and hugs!!!
