Slight Bleeding At 9 Weeks... Posted: 03-27-06 02:58am
This is my first pregnancy and I started
bleeding over night two nights ago. The
first blood loss was about the same as a
light period (i should have been due for a
period around this time - any link?). I
went to the hospital and they gave me an
internal scan which showed the baby's
heartbeat. What a relief! Since
returning home, I continued 'spotting'
through-out the day and a little bit the
following day. Today it seems to have
stopped - for now.
Has anyone had the same thing? Can
anyone offer any advice as to what I can
do to reduce any further bleeding? Does
this mean I will lose the baby?
Help!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is very scary! I just hope that he
or she can hang on in there for another 3
weeks at least....
:?

The fact that they saw the heart beat is
encouraging.
I too have experienced some spotting and
went for a scan.
I've been told to return next week for a
follow up scan.
As they say there is very little you can
do to prevent blood loss but good luck and
keep us posted.

I too had some spotting. Its normal.
Just make sure for the next month or so
not to lift anything heavy. Try to have
someone help you with laundry, groceries,
etc. Even bending down can affect you.
Remmember you are in an early pregnancy
and anything can affect it. Best of luck
to you.
