    Hi Chrystal, you poor thing, I know exactly what you're going through! This is my third preg and i've had bleeding/spotting at some stage during all three.

    Ist prg I had spotting from 4 weeks on and off until about 12 weeks, then had a few bleeds in the second and third tri's. No cause was ever found.

    My second prg (my angel) I had no spotting until 12 weeks when it was discovered I'd had a missed m/c at about 7.5 weeks.

    This prg I had some spotting at 9 weeks and believe me when I say I felt like my world was falling down around me when it happened. Especially after going through IVF to concieve this time.

    BUT a scan on the day showed everything was fine, I am now almost 24 weeks and have had no more spotting so far (). My FS thinks the bleeding was coming from my cervix.

    DH & I have decided during this prg that because of my history of bleeding during prg, we will not be DTD. I think a lot of the bleeding in my first prg was because of this as it usually followed DTD.

    SO - yes, it is totally possible and more than likely that your pregnancy will continue and you'll have a healthy baby!

    Some of us are just bleeders

    HI Chystal,

    I too have had a miscarriage followed by this pregnancy in which I bled from week 5 to about week 9.

    I was terrified but as it turns out everything is now fine - bubs is happy and healthy. Mine was a sub-chorionic haemorage which is not that common.

    After getting it all checked out medically (and being told it could go either way - miscarriage or healthy pregnancy) I decided I could not control the outcome and stopped worrying.
