    I’m going to be leaving the group as I am experiencing a miscarriage. I wish you all a healthy and safe pregnancy; enjoy every moment growing your precious babies.

    I’ve got a little light pink spotting all of a sudden tonight. I’m not worried; my blood work has all come back more than doubling (went from 43 on Saturday to 220 yesterday), but I still get anxious. After a CP in 2022, I hate spotting.

    I paid for a hcg quantitative test and I don’t think this pregnancy is viable. It was only 14. For being 5 weeks that’s low. I have an OBGYN appointment tomorrow and I’m sure they’ll order a second test

    @andrea3o I’m so sorry 😞 

    @leylea89 oh no! Let’s just hope your dates are off. That’s so scary.

    Thanks. Sorry your spotting scares you. I spotted with my son and while I’ve had chemicals and other pregnancy losses, i never had that light spotting with any of them.

    My pregnancy test is negative and I’m cramping real bad. Pretty sure this is the end for me. Good luck to everyone else

    Hello, I am new here and had a question.

    I went for my annual Pap smear and found out I was pregnant. Going by my LMP I am 2.5 weeks (didn’t even know you can find out so soon.)…I had a trans vag ultrasound but it showed nothing. My HCG level was 292 on Monday and on Weds it was 163…this means I will probably miscarry? My doctor said things look good so I am confused.

    Hcg dropping is definitely not a good sign. I’m not sure why they would do an ultrasound that soon… you can’t see anything that early anyways. My first isn’t until the day before thanksgiving if I make it. I’m still spotting after 3 days… my confidence is a bit shaken.

    I think I’m out friends. I passed a pea sized clot this morning after dark red spotting last night. Now I’m starting into bleeding. Still no cramping, but I’m sure that’s next. Best of luck to you all!

    Hi All,

    This is my first pregnancy. I am halfway through my 5th week, noticed very light spotting Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, (had a clinic confirm pregnancy through urine test Wednesday). Today I woke up with bright red spotting, but no pain and stopped before the morning was over. I spoke with my nurse and she didn’t seem concerned, but I am still feeling uneasy. If anyone has any tips to ease the worry I would love the advice.

    Went for my first appointment today, LMP was 9/21 (should be 8 weeks)
    Baby is measuring 5w5 days on ultrasound, didn’t see a heartbeat yet.
    Had quantitative HCG drawn today & going back Monday for a repeat. Anyone been through some similar & can give me reassurance? I am a wreck. I don’t want to lose my baby 😭❤️

    @ knottie582b90b107f8dbd a similar thing is happening with me. I went on Monday for ultrasound and was supposed to be 7 weeks but measuring 5 weeks 6 days with a low heart rate. I have to go back on the 27th for a follow up ultrasound. I have been spotting a little bit though so I’m pretty worried.

    Going just by lmp would put all my pregnancies off by over a week. I normally ovulate on cd 22 not cd 14 which is what going by your lmp would align with. 

    My fist kid they told me I would miscarry there was no hb and at 6 weeks I should have one. Cake back the next week and it was there. Hold out hope especially if you might ovulate later than cd 14.

    I should be 6w6d today. Had u/s Monday at 6w4d and embryo was seen but doc said it was very small and only looked about 6 weeks. She did not take any measurements on the ultrasound, so I’m not sure how she deemed that, maybe visual. Was a slight heartbeat she said but another doctor came in and said “probably won’t end up being anything”. I’m following up again for u/s Monday 11/27 but I don’t really like how cold they were about this. I’m an older mom so I guess they’re just assuming it will miscarry.

    If you're pregnancy continues. Please get another doctor. I had a doctor casually tell me that my pregnancy was a molar one and to get blood work done. Two days later water the second blood draw I went back and he told me he was scheduling me for a d&c for the next day first this in the morning, he was sending my scans to another hospital for a second opinion but wanted me booked as he's 99.9% sure it's molar and needs to be taken care of. Big hospital called and said don't do the d&c until I met with them.... My baby is 3.5 years old, I can't believe he almost made me terminate my child.

    I'm sorry, I don't know how to post pictures on this board. I am 5w1d along and had a couple of small small brown spots in my underwear. I wiped and this was the result. Should I be worried? My doctor's office is closed until Monday.

    Spotting can be normal with implanting... If there's not a lot of red blood or cramping you should be ok. I know it's really hard not to worry. Spotting after sex is also something that happens especially if you have a sensitive cervix.

    I had very very mild cramps. About two hours after I posted I went to bathroom and wiped a large clot away. I think I miscarried. I’ve been bleeding since then and had another large clot come out. I took a pregnancy test and the line is now barely visible. Urgent care wouldn’t do anything, so I have to wait until Monday to talk to my doctor. 99.9% it’s over though.

    Hope you all continue to have healthy pregnancies.
