I Am 9 Weeks Pregnant And I Reallllllllllly Need Advice!!!!
Posted: 06-11-05 11:24am

Well, I am a 20 year old female and I am about 9 weeks pregnant. I have been pregnant 2 times before. The first time I got pregnant I had an ectopic pregnany at about 6 weeks on my left side which I did have to get surgery for. The second time I got pregnant I had a miscarraige at about 6 weeks also.

Okay. So here is my question. I am now 9 weeks and the doctor has heard and seen the heart beat 2 times now. The last time was june 8, 2005. I have been cramping a lot since then. But, they are not severe. They are like period cramps.

Should I be worried about miscarrying again?

If I do miscarry will I definately bleed?

What are my chances in being able to carry this baby to full term?

My doctor assured me that everything is going to be okay. But, I just want a second opinion.

The reason I ask this is because when I had a miscarraige march of 2004 I didn't bleed at all. And, I had to get a d&c.

Please respond a.S.A.P

Cramping in pregnancy especially early on is normal. It is probably your ligaments stretching basically your insides are making room to accomodate the baby as it grows. Once the doctor has heard the heartbeat chances of miscarriages drops a lil bit they wont ever be completely gone but it will drop again dramatically when you get to your second trimester which you are almost to. If you have any severe cramping and it is accompanied by bright red blood (lots of it) than you should get to your doctor immediately. But any thing you may be concerned about I would just go ahead and call the doc or your l&d to tell them what your experiencing and if it is normal. They will be willing to tell you it is very normal for pregnant women to get paranoid about everything. Trust me I do it every week. I go to the doctor and freak out before its time to go back again. You should be fine and try not to worry its not good for the baby.

If the baby has been seen by sonogram and heard that you are fine. Early on cramping is fine. Does it feel like you are getting your period. Alos aree with the last posting. Relax and you'll be fine

You really need to schedule a doctors appt and ask him your chances of miscarrying due to the pervious ones... Cramping is part of pregnancy... And you could bleed for a pregnancy and just be like a regular period... Which you can have in your pregnancy
