Bright Red Bleeding

**Cocolove** · October 24th, 2011, 11:46 AM

Im 8 weeks and 3 days and am now experiencing a bleed of bright red blood, no clotting & no cramps though

We did DTD last night which is when it came about, it started at blood tinged urine and I (TMI) put my finger in a bit with the toilet paper and there was bright red blood!

This is quite common. Particulary after sex. The blood flow to your vagina is increased due to pregnancy making it easier to bleed. Try not to stress xoxox Take it easy and rest up for a few days. If it gets worst go and see your DR.

I had the same at around 7 weeks with DS. They weren't sure what is was from but told me to rest up and see how I went.

I can see you have 3 others kiddies to run around after but maybe try and rest up as much as you can. There's not a lot the Drs can do to "help" you besides an u/s.
Give them a call if it will put you at ease though hun. Thinking of you

for you hun but it's quite common, during my PG with DD1 i had multiple bleeds, all were within 24hrs of DTD.
I hope thats all it is

Im not very hopeful its actually getting worse!

It could be from the sex or it could be break through bleeding (would your period normally be due about now?).

Thinking of you too...

ok well I went for an ultrasound and found that im actually only 4 weeks along which isnt suprising as my cycles are all over the place, so its too early to pick up a heartbeat, they are unsure what the bleeding could be i have to have bloods done tomorrow or wednesday and go from there, im pretty much in limbo

There was a gestational sack and a yolk sack/fetol pole!!

That is some good news then. I hope that you have no more bleeding and the rest of your pregnancy is rather boring. Take it as easy as you can.

**Maruschke** · October 24th, 2011, 08:27 PM

Wow! A heartbeat at 4 weeks is really amazing. Glad you got the reassurance. I hope the rest of the pregnancy progresses with no issues.

My Levels are at 1327 the nurse says everything is fine for now as long as it keeps going up!
Obviously she doesnt know what my levels were at 3 days prior to that but she said for just under 5 weeks that is Perfect!!

Wowzers I was ADAMANT this was over!! Guess it still could be but im hopeful now!
