So here is my story, any help would be great! I am 5 weeks preggo and on Friday I noticed brown blood in my underwear. So I called my doctor and she said it was normal, she called it "old blood" and not to worry. So I felt better By late friday night the bleeding turned red, with clotts! I have no back pain and no cramping, so I am taking it as a good sign, right? But it is now sunday morning and the bleeding has not stopped. I called my on call doctor and she said stay in bed all weekend and I have an appt on Monday morning. Any advice you ladies can give would be such a help. Thanks

Sorry hun, but it sounds like a chemical pregnancy to me. However, I am not a doctor so I would suggest calling your doctor and going in for an ultrasound. Good luck.

So sorry you are going through this. All I can really advice is to hang in there. You won't know for sure until you get checked. Bleeding in the 1st trimester is common and it could really go either way although bright red blood is usually not a good sign. You won't get too much positive feedback on this board since we've all gone through miscarriage. I hope everything turns out ok for you but do know that there is a nice group of ladies on this board in case you need us.

What she said. On this board we aren't particularly optimistic when it comes to bleeding but I hope you are not m/c--but if so we are here if you need us.

I hope everything is ok and you don't have to come back here!!!

Hopefully it's not a m/c, but when I m/c'd before mine sounds just like what you're doing.. Just take her advice on staying in bed, hopefully she will schedule you a ultrasound asap.

Thank you everyone for all your kind words and advice. I go tomorrow at 8am for blood work and hopefully she will do an ultrasound. I will keep updating. I have never really felt like I was preggo to begin with. I had no morning sickness, no breast tenderness no nothing. So this might be Gods way of telling me not this time. and I will keep on trying until I get it right Thanks again ladies

 

update: just took a pregnancy test and it came back negative so I guess it wasnt meant to be. But we will see what the doctor has to say

Red blood isn't a good sign.

I see that your pg test is negative.  I'm sorry for your loss.

So since I am only 5 weeks and 5 days all they could do was take blood today and then I go back Wednesday to take blood again to see if my levels double in 48 hours. and by Wednesday I will be 6 weeks so she will do an ultrasound then. I told her I took a pregnancy test and told her it came out negative and she said that wasnt good but it could have been the time of day I took the test too. I also told her that I wasnt having any pregnancy symptoms and she told me that it was normal for some women not to have symptoms for a few weeks. So now I have to wait till Wednesday. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers! I need them right now.
