    Worried

    Ok this is my first real post and i am really cross it has to be one about this but i am terrified.

    Ok i have 2 DD's and have miscarried twice since my last daughter 4 years ago.

    Now I have had an ultrasound yesterday, according to my dates i shud b 6 weeks 4 days but the ultrasound said 5 weeks 4 days.

    Just before the U/S the said to empty my bladder, when i wiped there was pink stained mucous. Then internanl U/S said that cervix closed and long, and the sac and yolk sac are all exct to the date 5w4days.
    Afterward there was more pink mucous.

    At home there was more and a small amount of brown to it to. It is only present when i wipe, and i NEVER experienced any bleeding with my DD's and both miscarriages were missed. (no Bleeding)

    So right now i am petrified, can anyone please offer me some help or ideas as to what this could be????

    Sorry so long and if TMI

    it's not unusual to measure different to your LMP dates - i measured 5 days small for ours. did you have a heartbeat on the scan at all? follow up with your care provider if the bleeding gets any heavier or you're in pain

    No i didnt have a heartbeat yesterday and i was shattered, but they said not to worry coz it generally cant be seen til after 6 weeks. She said it all looked good cos the cervix was closed and long and my OB/Gyn said to just rest, so i am but oh my god i am soooo terrified

    It could just be implantation bleeding - if you are having no pain and the U/s was fine, then I wouldn't be too worried just yet. You could have implanted late, meaning that the baby will be smaller for dates than what you expected and if you aren't 100% sure of when you ovulated and therefore conceived, that will put your dates out too - especially if you have a longer cycle. Can you get your Dr to do a check of the HCG and see if the levels are rising?

    Yes, yes check your HCG levels, they should go up every 24-48 hours. Good Luck darls

    My last hcg test said all good, i may have O'd late as my cycle was 31 days last time sort of hard tho coz my last MC was 25.09.08. LMP was 25.10.08. we werent even trying this time as i was still recovering from miscarriage, th dr detected it as i had a real bad bladder infection. so i have no idea to ovulation n stuff coz i had given up. i had thought this baby was meant to be for it to happen so soon, and now i am just terrified there is no other word for it. and coz i had never bled before to this time i really dont know what to expect. im soory to do your heads in but i cant do mine in any more

    And thankyou all, i dont have anyone else to talk to about all this u guys are all ive got right now it means heaps

    get your doc to check your HCG again - if they do a sequence of them over a couple of days, it should confirm that they are climbing - also maybe ask if they can scan again in a week or so...

    That's OK - there is always someone around to listen to your concerns so don't feel you can't come and have a vent or ask for advice. FWIW, I only ever had implantation bleeding with 2 or my 4 pg's, so it doesn't mean anything if you do or you don't get it (assuming that's what it is too). But take heart that your levels are good and that you do have a longer cycle, so things could be out of whack a little from that. Some women are just unfortunate enough to get bleeding during pg too - there is a thread about it on here with other women and their stories and how they got through it.
