Bleeding at 6 weeks

genesis3174 · September 2015

I'm about 6 weeks pregnant and haven't been to my first appt yet(not until Oct 14th) and I'm bleeding a pretty good amount where I need to wear a pad. What does this mean? Should I go to the er?? My doctors office isn't open until Monday and its Friday

suggestions ??!!

Call your dr's after-hours number. I'm no doctor but from best to worst I've seen: "the bleeder" a mom who bled heavily -with no explanation- through four healthy pregnancies; folks with SCH that bleed the 1st tri -sometimes gushing- and continue well, albeit some don't; and then m/c when bleeding is with heavy cramping. I think an ER visit would merely provide information, not necessarily suggest action (unless an unlikely condition is diagnosed).

If it were me, I'd want medical attention right away.
ETA good luck

I agree with calling the after hours, it could be nothing, but better to be safe than sorry! I absolutely agree with @sharonb222 , the ER may not be able to provide answers, as well as the after-hours nurses or on call could.

Good luck!
