1st Trimester

Am I having a miscarriage?

Im 6 and 1/2 weeks. i found out at 5wks. my first gyno visit is in 3 days. i had a miscarriage april 25th of 2011, it died at 8wks, i found out at 10wks.

but i went to the bathroom an hr ago, to wipe as i do routinely (a habit thanks to the fear of another m/c) to make sure there's no blood... and suddenly there's blood. at first was pale brown. then less and less. then there was none. then i went #1.. and then there's dark red/black blood. not a ton, but plenty enough.

 thing is, its coming from my pee hole. it hurts alittle.

 is it maybe a UTI ? or what? my stomach's hurting alittle but that could be from stress.I started to walk upstairs to use the bathroom but as soon as i raised my leg for first step, a pain shot thru my uterus.

 im going to call my gyno, see if they'll take me in tomorrow morning instead of wensday.

EDIT:

 now determined its coming from my vag as well as my pee hole. im starting to have shooting pains in my uterus/stomach/side. the area varies. my stomach is aching and hips feel heavy like it does right before my period. blood is getting paler and paler brown. im laying out on my couch for the time being.. not moving more than i have to.  I'll call the gyno tomorrow.. hopefully they can get me in.. what with it being labor day and all..

  • Definitely call your doc! It could be anything, but any bleeding from your urethra is a concern (especially with pain). It could be a kidney infection.

     I would call the after hours number and talk to whomever is on call. They may want you to go to urgent care tonight.

  • I wasn't pg at the time, but I did have visible blood with an UTI once. It sucked. I agree, go to urgent care.

    TTC since May 2006. After 3 failed Clomid cycles, 2 failed Injectibles/IUIs, 2 failed IVFs and 1 failed FET, we moved on to adoption!

    Last ditch FET resulted in BFP, and identical twin girls!

  • I had that with a bad kidney infection in college. Go to urgent care if you can.

  • Sounds like maybe a UTI or some other infection, but it doesn't sound like miscarriage. If you're not bleeding enough to soak a pad and you're not having intense period-like cramping, it's probably not miscarriage. But it does sound like you need to have your doctor check you out. If it's an infection, you wanna get that taken care of ASAP.

  • Please don't wait. Call or go see someone now. 
  • I hope you don't have a kidney infection! Feel better soon :)
  • I had bleeding with my first pregnancy around 7.5 weeks. I called dr. and they said unless you were having pain it shouldn't be anything to worry about. I found out the next day it was just left over from implantation. Also, this blood was bright red, it was really scary at the time but I learned this happens in pregnancy more often than you know. I would just call your dr. to check everything.

  • It could be several things, better to call your doctor now. When you had your m/c last April, you said you didnt find out until 10 weeks? Had you seen a heartbeat before that? Did you have any symtoms before your doctors appointment? I guess I'm curious, I am 9 weeks and have another appt in a week and im so nervous! we did see a heartbeat at 7 weeks though. Prayers are with you!
