Light Bleeding--6 Weeks In Posted: 03-04-06 12:29pm
This is my first pregnancy, im 20 yrs old
and im sooo scared right now. I dont
want to go to the emergency room for
something that is normal. So I guess I
need someone to tell me that it is.
This morning I woke up and of course
headed straight to the bathroom. I
urinated and then when I wiped I had very
light blood on the paper. A few hours
later I urinated again and it wasnt as
much blood but it was pinkish.. Is this
normal? If I dont go to the er could I be
putting the baby at risk for a
miscarriage??
Thanks jen

Did you have intercourse or an internal
exam recently? Those can cause light
bleeding. Are you experiencing any pain?
It could just b your cervix swelling with
blood and ssome leaked if you arent
experiencing pain and its stopped then you
should be fine but call your doctor on mon
and just check in. If you do have pain go
to the er or if te blood gets heavier and
doesnt stop

No I havent had sex or an exam... One
more thing could it be stress? Or I had
heard it could be late implantation
bleeding..

I doubt at 20 weeks its implatation
bleeding that occurs during the first
10-14 days of conception. Has it stopped?

I would say its ok then cuz alot of girls
have a period alll the way or part of the
way through their pregnancy and most
miscarriages (that ive read about) involve
sharp pains in your abdomen. But my labor
paper from my doctor says to come in for
an evaluation if you have vaginal
bleeding. If you sdont want to make a
trip to the er and its slowed down then
just call your doctor on monday to be sure
you dont need an eval.
