i need some support and hope. I am about 5 weeks preg with baby # 3. i went to the docs yesterday and had a very postive preg test. We lost our dd2 last year due to a cord accident at 39 weeks and this is supposed to be our much wanted rainbow baby. I woke up this morning and had some red blood. i would call it light bleeding and it has definitely slowed down but not stopped. i am not really having any pain (just what i would call niggles that i have had in my past pregnancies) and the blood seems to be starting to turn brownish now with some specks of red throughout CM. My GP who i love is not working today but i called my ob who advised just to get the hcg bloods done that i was planning on today and saturday and hope for the best. i know that bleeding can be normal but it is just so typical for me to have a difficult pregnancy
Bleeding in pregnancy can be for so many different reasons. I hope that for you it has no impact on your baby. I have everything crossed for you. The waiting in horrendous.
it's so stressful!
I've had bleeding for all my pregnancies so there is still hope. Even when I was pregnant with DS I went for an ultrasound due to bleeding thinking I was 6weeks and they only could see a yolk sac but now he's now almost 8mths. It's scary and I guess the only thing that's reassuring is having an ultrasound to see how things are.
Thanks girls. I appreciate all your thoughts and hope! So the bleeding has def slowed down so I not get anything when I wipe (sorry tmi!). It's either pink or brown - usually a combination. My dh seems to think that the pink is more just residual from this morning given that it is much paler and no red. I have had no cramping or clots so just have to cross my fingers and pray! I get my hcg results for Tom. If I was miscarriaging would the results be high still I would they have starting dropping already today?? Just wondering if the results will give me any indication at all...
I know how stressful this can be, I also had bright red bleeds with each of my two pregnancies. Twice in each one, between around 5 and 8 weeks. My DD is now 2.5 and I'm 36 weeks with #2. So don't lose hope, though I know it's easier said than done. Best wishes xx
Edit - just saw your new post, huge hugs honey and hoping that somehow it still works out ok for you xx
Thanks girls. But I think it is all over just passed what u believe to be everything it was horrific and I never want o experience that again. Thanks for all your loving words and encouragement. Xoxo
Well now I really don't know what to think! I had what I believe is a full mc in Friday morning. I can't describe it in any other way. To me, I can not imagine how a baby could survive the blood tht I lost. So I had hcg taken on thurs t it was 1585. Told by GP to get bloods done on sat anyway to confirm mc and she just called me with hcg result of 4004...I am so confused!! I mc the day before so there is no way it should have doubled. Honestly if that was not a mc I do not know what is! I had more bloods taken today so have to wait now - so confused and just want an answer
I know how scary natural miscarriage is and I hope you don't have to experience it ever again. Big, gentle hugs. Put your feet up and have a good rest xx
