I checked this forum the first time when I
started bleeding but it looked like no one
came back after to tell their experiences,
so I just wanted to let you all know what
happened to me.
Miscarrriage is a progression. And it
happens to atleast 1 out of 6 women, so if
you are bleeding be cautious, but maybe
you will be one of the lucky women that
will continue to have a healthy baby.
I was 8 weeks pregnant exactly. The
progression from the first day I saw blood
to the day I lost the baby took exactly 6
days. I was experiencing period like
cramps maybe 4 or 5 days before I saw
blood, I just dismissed as being normal
because I thought it could be the forming
of the uterus, baby, placenta type deal,
but I think if you are experiencing pains,
take it easy. Lie in bed and drink lots
of fluids from that day on. Anyway, after
a couple days of slight period like
cramping I saw my first blood. This was
on a monday. After I saw the blood I went
immediately to er, I guess that wasnt
really worth it, I wish I had just called
my doctor and went to see him, but it was
my first pregnancy and I got a little
scared. I guess you only need to worry
really bad, is if your blood type is
negative. Anyway, at the er they did some
routine tests, my cervix was closed and
the baby had a heart beat. I was told to
go home and take plenty of rest and drink
fluids.
Wednesday, 2 days later, I went to see my
obgyn, and he told me I was bleeding more
heavily than regular, meaning I wasnt
spotting and I wasnt having like a period
but you know its like a light period. But
he told me to not worry and 90% of
pregnancys will go on. The baby had a
heart beat, he did a pap smear, cervix was
closed, so I went home.
The next night which was thursday, I
experienced the same amount of cramping at
times getting bad but nothing I couldnt
handle. It was like a bad period cramp,
and I had two clumps of mucus like blood
on my pad. I called my doctor, he said
it was ok. So I went on lying on my couch
and drinking tons of water to make sure I
am hydrated.
Friday, went on as normal with pains
raning from light to medium. The pains
were never nothing I couldnt handle so I
thought I was ok, I thought when people
miscarryed they had a horrifying pain
where they couldnt walk or sit or
anything. I never experienced this kind
of pain. It was always tolerable.
So saturday passed and the pain was really
less, and my bleeding continued as usual.
The blood had a horrible smell, not like
peroid blood, and was bright red, and when
it hit the water it kind of stringed and
"danced" in the water, forming strands, it
kinds looked like "dna." ok, so saturday
went by smoothly with very light pain
compared to other days, and I went to
bed.
This morning, which is sunday, when I
awoke, I checked my pad. And realized I
lost the baby. I am going to get graphic
to explain this section, because I want
you to know that I never knew what to
expect. So when you have mucusy blood
dont be so worried, thats not the baby,
its still in you, but when you lose the
baby, its the consistency of a boiled egg,
the size and the shape is, but its bloody.
Its firm to the touch.
I am really sorry for everyone who has to
go through this, and writing this is a
biut theraputic for me as I am still
trying to pass the shock that I lost my
baby this morning. But when I checked
this site, I saw that no one came back to
write their experience and I wanted to, no
matter what my outcoome was.
I am soooo very sorry of your loss, I
realize that it is a difficult thing to go
through. The main thing is, is that it
is not your fault, please do not blame
yourself, I know, I have gone through this
mysellf. This takes time and if you feel
you need help, it is out there for you.
If ever in any doubt check it out. The
Dr. Just told me when it happened to go
home, that I was miscarrying and to make
an appt. Afterwards to see if I neede a
d&c.
You are in my thoughts and prayers!

stops for hours then starts again.
They have taking my blood twice and my
blood quants are not normal does anyone
know if it possible if my baby is going to

:cry:
this is the exact same thing i'm going
through, except I don't have any cramps.
I'm six weeks as well. I've become
paranoid. I'm always completely analyzing
the blood that comes out of me, making
sure they're clots and not something else.
I've been to the gyno 3 times this week,
i've had pap smears and ultrasounds
everytime, my cervix is still closed and
everything looks normal. We haven't
gotten a heartbeat yet and today I found
out that the sack was smaller than it was
yesterday. :( my hcg levels are all out
of whack too. The first time I got a
blood test my quant was at 8 thousand,
then yesterday [monday, exactly 5 days
later] my quants only went up to 11
thousand. I'm scared, this is my first
baby and I feel so hopeless. I'm trying
to be strong and keep my head up, asking
everyone if they knew anyone who bled like
this when they first got pregnant, lots of
people said it happened.. But of course
it doesn't ease my mind.
What should I do?

I am 3 weeks late for my period. I have
been experiencing bloating, cramping,
nausea at all times of the day, not to
mention my sense of smell has been
unbelievable lately!!! I am pretty sure I
am pregnant and am gonna buy a test this
thursday. However 3 days ago I noticed
a small trace of blood, dark blood, in a
discharge. It only happened once, and I
still haven't got my period. Has this
happened to anyone else???

Bleeding While Pregnant Posted: 01-23-06 16:58pm
It's so nice to know that i'm not alone in
such a scary situation! I am 8 weeks
pregnant and have been bleeding for almost
20 days. No cramping, but heavy clotting
and going through 2 pads a day.I thought
for sure it was a miscarriage until I
looked into it. It's way more common than
most would think. Unfortunately, the one
thing that has remained certain is that
there's nothing you can do about it.
Dwelling about it will just make things
worse. Good luck to everyone in the same
boat. Hope for the best!

Bleeding While Pregnant Posted: 02-14-06 13:49pm
Hey everyone! About three weeks ago I
wrote about my situation- bleeding,
clotting with no cramping(i was hoping for
the best). Well, it turned out to be the
worst case scenario. Turns out that I had
an ectopic pregnancy(when the egg never
makes it and is stuck inside your falopian
tube) and was hemerrging as the fertilized
egg was growing in my falopian tube.
After my eight week ultra sound I went
into emergency surgery and the egg along
with my filopian tube was removed. The
egg had done so much damage that I had no
chose but removal. Because I waited so
long my abdomin and pancreaus was filled
with blood as well.
The point is, don't wait so long to
get to the doctors office. I read
everyones thoughts on the website and it
gave me false hope. That hope cost me a
filopian tube. Everyone told me not to
worry when in fact I should have been
worried. The doctors rushed me into
surgery that night because if it had
ruptured I would only have 30 minutes to
live because of the hemerging. I didn't
even know what an ectopic was and that
almost killed me. Ladies, my case might
not be the same as yours, but it just
might be. Please remember, bleeding while
pregnant is not normal! Listen to your
own body, not someone elses opinion!

very lightly and just this morning it
turned into heavy clotty bleeding as well
as very mild cramps. I have the tender
breasts, a huge appetite and very tired

Rollercoasters And Early Pregnancy Posted: 04-27-06 01:52am
I, too have been having cramps off and on
:( , but no blood, until 2day but it was
lite pink though, kinda how it jus pops up
the day b4 ur period comes, and a bit of
mucus, but thats an always thing b4 my
period comes. Could this still be normal?
Do u think a woman can miscarry from
riding a rollercoaster and be 4wks or jus
under 4wks pregnant :cry: ? Just wanted 2
know an opinion. Last night me and my
boyfriend went to ride one and when we
went 2 ride it again we saw a sign about
if ur preg, have heart probs, etc. Not to
ride it. So now he thinks it maybe the
ride's fault. :roll: but im just looking
for an opinion :?:

Slight Bleading With Little Clott Posted: 05-15-06 20:58pm
I am 7 weeks pregnant and on sat I found
alittle brownish blood on the tissue and a
little clot in the toilet that same day I
went to the bathroom again and the same
thing but it was only alittle bit the day
after, the bleading and clotting stopped
did I have a miscarriage ?
