hi everyone
i am a newbee, and i have some worries
about my pregnancy which i wonder if
anyone can help with
i have been spotting and bleeding for
about 2 weeks, i had an ultrasound which
the midwife said didnt look right but was
too early to tell.
i had one hcg test done on last wednesday
afternoon, then another on friday morning,
so not quite 48 hours, the first result
was 4878, the second was 7923, so they
didnt double, but they went up quite a
lot.
im really confused, i dont know what to
make of all this.
surely my number shouldnt go up that much
if i am miscarrying
help!

That ultrasound was way too early to
really see anything. I would wait about
another week or so and go back for another
ultrasound. By 8 weeks you woud for sure
have a heartbeat able to be seen on the
screen if the pregnancy is progressing.
How bad was your bleeding and spotting?

i am still bleeding, but its only spotting
now, sometimes red sometimes brown, if i
strain to go to the bathroom more comes
out.
this has been going on for about 3 weeks.
i have another u/s tommorow with a doctor,
i am looking forward to finally knowing
something.

So you will be 6 weeks at this ultrasound
right? I hope everything goes well. Some
women do bleed during pregnancy and that
doesn't always mean bad things. Have you
ever had any clots?

hi all
i went for my scan today, i could see the
heart beat and everything looked great,
thanks for praying for me, i guess the
last nurse didnt know what to look for,
she really scared me saying she couldnt
see anything that looked like a healthy
pregancy.

Congrats!!! I am so happy for you I know
how that can feel. I had some spotting
early on in my pregnancy and was told I
had a "missed miscarriage" They sent me in
for a scan to confirm the miscarriage and
we saw a nice strong heartbeat!! Now I am
just waiting for my 10 week appointment
when we get to hear a heartbeat. I am
still very nervous but I have good
feelings about this. I am 7 weeks tomorrow
and so far no more spotting!
