If a heartbeat is seen the chances of miscarrying go down pretty low. I've never been in your situation but I have been in a similar one. I don't think that they can predict with 100% accuracy that you will miscarry. I had pretty bad bleeding off and on for the first trimester. My dr and I were convinced that I was going to miscarry...I now have a happy and healthy little boy.

Good luck to you!

Thanks for that, I did think maybe the heartbeat was a good sign even though they said possible enevitable miscarriage... I'm just really confused, being pregnant is sooo scary!! :)

Hey mom2trevor, did the bleeding resemble a period? Or was it irregular bleeding, and was it alot?? Sorry for the interrogation, i'm just curious!

I am more than happy to answer questions!! It was these kinds of boards that got me through my pregnancy!!


Wanabamom--around 6 weeks I had light spotting (a week before I learned I was pregnant)
at 7wks 3 days (the day I found out I was pregnant) I spotted all day.
At 9wks I had bright red bleeding that lasted for 2 days (very heavy with clots)
at 12wks 6days..I was lying on the couch watching a movie and stood up to go to the bathroom...When I got up blood was running down my leg. It was bright red with lots of clots it lasted for about 4 days.

At around 14wks...All bleeding stopped and baby was fine :)

all of my bleeding was unexplained. I had u/s after u/s and they could find nothing at all wrong.

Sorry if it's a little graphic.
