Bleeding

CreechMommy · May 2014

I've been experiencing some spotting for several weeks. We got a heartbeat at our first u/s which was around 6-7 weeks.

Sometimes it's brown, sometimes pink/red. Most of the time it's watery and very light, but sometimes it's darker red and slightly heavier with some small clots. Just when I think it's going away, it'll come back heavier, then get light, then heavy. (When I say heavy, I mean it will only leave a few drops on my underwear and it will be more when I wipe) I have very little cramping (more like what I would just call discomfort). Dr. didn't seem worried for any reason when we did our ultrasound. He did mention he possibly saw a cyst but was unsure. He also said I had a tilted uterus. Not sure what is causing this spotting, but it's very scary because it's been going on so long and it's inconsistent. I am also on pelvic rest from my Dr. so it's not being caused by any outside source causing cervical irritation.

Anyone else ever experienced this?

I go back for another u/s in about 5 days and I'm going crazy waiting!

I had spotting - was caused by low progesterone. As soon as I got on meds & shots, the bleeding stopped and hasn't come back.

I was also told by my first OB that I had a tilted uterus and they had a difficult time with the trans-vag ultrasound. My new OB didn't mention it at all and didn't seem to have any trouble with the ultrasound. Wondering if it was legit or the first person just wasn't good with ultrasounds.

I was told that when you ovulate you generally make a little cyst that goes away on its own - so most OBs aren't usually concerned with them... unless they are painful and don't go away on their own.
