Q: Light Bleeding
asked by: mayhi on November 18th, 2006

Hi everyone,

yesterday morning when I woke up I noticed that I was having very light bleeding. I called my doctor and got in to see her right away. She sent me for a full set of blood work. I also had to do the pee testing that they do. Man.. Its not easy to start to pee.. Then stop.. Then start again.. Then stop and start again.. What a pain. I have to go back again on monday to have more done so that they can test to make sure my levels are going up as they should. She said that depending on my levels she would decide if they are going to send me in for an early ultrasound or if I am ok to wait. I also had blood work done as my hubby is rh positive and we think that I am rh negative. She said that could be why I am spotting. She told me not to worry too much as I am not having cramps with it. Also this is when I would normally have been ovulating and she said that my body could just be out of whack and not used to being pregnant yet.

So anyways.. I was just wondering if anyone here had had cramping early on and then some spotting, but no cramping when the spotting started? Also wondering if everyone was ok? Or should I be worried?

Thanks girls, I would appreciate any input.

Mary

Maybe a lot of people are looking at your post, but not responding because they don't want to give you false advice, false hope, or doom and gloom.

Everybody is different. Some women spot when their pregnant, some don't. I spotted almost constantly from 11.5 to 14 weeks with little to no cramping, I even passed some nasty looking slimy thing. I thought for sure I was miscarrying, but I didn't.

When in doubt talk to your doc.

Good luck to you!

i am around 6 weeks.. Maybe more.. Not sure yet. In my family we tend to have our period for the first few months, my sister even had hers for the whole 9 months with her first.

i was looking for other peoples stories on what may have happened to them while pregnant. As for talking to my doctor, I did.. I posted what she said, not sure if you read it tho. I had blood work done yesterday and I go again on monday for more.

Anyways,

thanks girls.
