what to do.

Just went to the bathroom and saw bright red blood. I am only 4 weeks along. It is hard to judge how much... I called the doctor and I had to leave a voicemail with the nurse. Its been about an hour with no return call. I am having some mild cramping but nothing more than I have had the past week+. Recommendations? I don't know if I should count myself out, take another pregnancy test now, or what? Open to any recommendations.

I am just nervous that it is a miscarriage or CP. I just hate not knowing. Nurse called back and ordered betas for tomorrow and Monday. Guess I'll just have to wait it out.

Thank you everyone. After the initial red, it is much lighter in color (pink) and hardly even a "flow" (only present after wiping). I am having my hcg checked this morning and on Monday. I am trying to not count myself out yet!

Unfortunately, red blood isn't a good sign - but sometimes people have breakthrough bleeding where their period should be, and I hope that's the case for you.

Make sure you monitor it carefully and keep in close contact with your OB.

Thanks. Yesterday.. The day when I was bleeding .. Would have been when AF arrived. Thank goodness it has stopped for now.

Around 6 weeks I had some bright red bleeding and mild cramping as well. It all went away pretty quickly and turned out to be a subchorionic hemmorage. I was told to take it easy from there to allow it to go away but I am still trucking along and 10 weeks now! Good luck to you!
