Newly pregnant and bleeding...help!

Dear all, I am appx 5 weeks pregnant with all positive from hpt, went to the OB 3x already due to my brown spotting that haven't stop over the past 2 weeks. When I went to the OB, (5 days apart each) all of them said I came too early and none can explain why I am experiencing the brown spotting. All of them told me to wait. I have no cramps, no pains, just the spotting. The last time due to my own curiosity, I tested my self with hpt and still positive. I am puzzled. This is my 2nd pregnancy and I have never m/c or experience spotting with my previous. I think every pregnancy is different but this brown spotting freaks me out. I hope it's nothing serious. I am going to the OB again in two days.
 
jut3k, i am going through something similar and i can tell you brown blood could be old blood and no problem. these girls might have even more information though. it's too bad that when it is early, the doctors are reluctant to take your concerns seriously enough. hang in there. also, i can tell you i have been having spotting on and off and it's even turned red. as far as i know, my little one is hanging on in there and doing just fine.

:hug:

happenstance! & akblaze, yes! i got engaged and i'm pretty happy about it. he proposed at a really worried and sad time, before the ultrasound where we saw the "miracle" heartbeat!! i had more spotting this weekend, and now i'm almost 100 percent sure it's from the cervix and basically unrelated to how lo is doing. i'm just holding on till the next ultrasound on may 15th! I'll be 10+4 at that point.

I'll be honest, I do want a boy :). But OBVIOUSLY a healthy baby would make me swoon, regardless of gender. In fact, if my baby were somewhere in between, all the better! ...yeah, you read that right! We're edgy!

Did anyone do a 10 week scan? what was the highlight?
I am really trying my best to take it easy. i haven't been exercising, which sometimes i feel guilty about, but i do think the spotting can be related to activity, so i'm chillin and have a great excuse!

hope all you ladies are doing well today!

akblaze, YAY EGGPLANT!!!!!!!!!!!!

hi kellie_w!

charlie and others, some of you ladies are so far along, i love it!!!!!!!!
 
Hi horseypants :flower:

Congratulations on your engagement! You asked about anyone that had a scan at 10 weeks, this was mine at 10 weeks, measuring 10+5 (sorry if it's big and the wrong way, can't crop or turn from photobucket on my iPhone!) baby curled up for picture but before this you could see little arms waving. No legs yet!

Like you I'm convinced that my bleeding now is also from the cervix. It's a little easier believing this and I have stopped worrying as much

Hello to all the other lovely ladies here, I'm very happy as, and I don't want to curse myself by saying this but I have had no bleeding for a week and am 11 weeks today :happydance:

Love to you all xxx
 
jut3k, Congrats on your BFP!! However, I'm sorry to hear about your spotting! As far as the blood being brown, that is probably the best color it can be when you do have spotting because it is old blood. Could be from implantation or a number of other reasons, usually harmless. I had spotting all through first trimester and at times it was brown, pink, red... just about every color possible. The only time my OB wasn't concerned was when it was brown.
I know it wont alleviate any worry because still, having the spotting around is terrifying! However, it's also a great sign that you have no cramps or pains. I know it can also be frustrating when you go in and they don't take your concerns seriously, so if you have a choice on provider then don't be afraid to find someone who will take you seriously.
I really hope your appointment goes well, please do keep us updated!! I'll be keeping you and your LO in my thoughts!!!
Sending lots of hugs and sticky dust!!! :hugs:

horseypants, awww!! a BIG CONGRATS to you and your fiance!!!! :cloud9: I'm so happy for you!!!! :)

I'm so sorry you had more spotting though!!! But you're right it's probably from your cervix and your LO is still snug and cozy in your belly just waiting until May 15 to say hi to mommy and daddy again!! :winkwink:

Aw, nothing wrong with being honest about what gender you are hoping for! To be honest, when we first started TTC, DH and I both wanted a boy first but when I got my BFP I just knew we were having a girl. Since I was so convinced, so was my hubby so we had 15 weeks for it to sink in before we found out. Now we are just over the moon with happiness, but still, I'm a little scared to have a girl!!! :haha:

I had a scan at about 9.5 weeks.. I would say the best part about that ultrasound was seeing the little arm and feet buds! :cloud9: She still looked like a blob to me! :haha: But my OB was able to point out her head/body and arm/feet buds!

I don't blame you for not exercising.. I didn't exercise at all in first tri.. I went from working out 2-3 hrs a day before pregnancy to absolutely nothing because of my spotting! I felt guilty at times but I was more concerned for my LO's safety of staying put so I took advantage of relaxing!! Now I work out for about an hour roughly 5 days a week depending on energy (if I don't workout then I definitely feel guilty now! :blush:). You're perfectly fine taking it easy though :) In fact, I'm ordering you to take it easy all through first tri at least, and maybe longer if your spotting keeps up!!!! :thumbup:

Kellie, Congrats on being 11 weeks now!!!! :happydance: I'm so happy for you! And what a lovely scan picture!!! :) Also, great news on no spotting!!!! I'm so happy for you and your little one!


I hope all of you lovely ladies and your LO's continue to do well!!!
I'll be sending anti-spotting dust and sticky bean dust to everyone!!! :winkwink: as well as loads of hugs!!! :hugs::hugs::hugs:

Happenstance, I hope you are getting some relaxation time in there with your crazy work schedule!!!! Lots of hugs to you and your LO as well!!!! :hugs:

And tomorrow marks 99 DAYS TO GO!!!!! :bunny::bunny::bunny:
 
Wow, I miss so much in just a day!!!

Akblaze I'm so happy you have a date for DH coming home. May 8, that's hardly any time at all! It's also the date of my 20 week scan so we're both counting down the days to May 8! And how amazing that he should be back in time for your anniversary. I must say, your timing for everything seems to have worked out perfectly - you fell pregnant just before he went away and now he'll be coming back to celebrate your first anniversary (which will be even more super special as it won't just be the two of you :winkwink:). I'm so excited for you, I really am :happydance: And I just LOVE the finger paint idea. Roll on the 8th so I can see this belly!!!

That's weird you've now got a rash, I would definitely tell your OB but I reckon you're right, it's probably eczema. Gosh, if it's not me catching your symptoms then it's you catching mine. :haha: We really are quite a pair!!!

That's so cute that you've had Chloe since you were 13, no wonder you're both so close! I can completely understand why she's being so protective of you. :cloud9:

As for thinking you saw a bit of your plug, I would definitely mention that to your OB. I, too, have read that it can be totally normal but you should just watch that you're not overdoing it. You're working out for two remember! Back to my pregnancy motto, 'tell the experts everything and let them advise you.'

I'm pretty sure I've been feeling baby moving again. It's quite low down and only occasionally, but it feels more like proper little kicks. Am I too early to feel that?! I think that midwife has got me paranoid that everything I feel must be wind. Oh well, maybe it is...:shrug:

Well, this is my super-duper working weekend so won't be around for the next couple of days. But just you make sure to take it easy and look after your gorgeous little girl. Give her a big belly hug from me :hugs:

Kellie, I'm so glad you saw your LO dancing around. It's so incredible to see! Although I'm sorry you had such a scare beforehand. I've started telling more people that I'm pregnant and I've been completely surprised by how many people told me they bled in early pregnancy and went on to have happy, health LOs. Why do people not talk about this kind of thing more? It's no wonder we all freak out at the sight of blood! But I'm glad you had such a wonderful scan to let you know that the bleeding is not affecting LO one little bit - sounds like you have a pretty active LO in there! Take it easy and make sure you relax and take it easy!

Sending you and your lots of :hugs: and :kiss:

CharlieJo I love the fact that you and OH are deciding on names. We still can't even come up with one that we both even kind of like!!! This poor baby will have to go through life with no name!!!

I like Eli and Noah, they're both really cute names. And I know what you mean about feeling you can't have a name because someone else already has it, but I agree, if you like the name then go for it! That's definitely my view!
Bobbi Elizabeth is so cute! I love the name Bobbi and it's great that you've got at least one name that you both agree on! :haha:

As for working too much! Tell me about it! I never seem to stop these days. Everyone keeps telling me I'll be shattered when the baby arrives - I'm like, I'm shattered now!!! Oh well, I get next weekend off which is good. Roll on next week!

And I can't believe your going to find out the sex in a few short weeks. You must be so excited! The 29th May will be here before you know it. And at least it will make the name choosing a little easier!!!

Hope you managed to get through your first hassle-free Wednesday and that LO was on his/her best behaviour! Sending you and your LO lots of :hugs: and :kiss:

Bean OMG, how absolutely wonderful to hear from you. And with such fantastic news!!! I am so, so happy for you and just know this is it for you! :happydance::bunny::wohoo::dance::headspin::bunny:

And I'm so glad that you are the only lady on this thread not here because of the dreaded spotting! I can't believe I missed your BFP. I've been so busy lately that I've had no time to catch up on all of my threads. And I knew I couldn't come back to the thread without catching up on a LOT of reading! Then each day passed and I seemed to have even less time! I'll definitely be stopping by to see you all really soon (if I ever get five minutes away from work!).

Thanks so much for the rash advice. Thankfully, my rash seems to be disappearing. It's still there, but only just. How have you been feeling? Any symptoms yet? I don't think I started getting morning sickness until about 6 and a half weeks. Hopefully you'll be one of the lucky ones and will just miss that part out!

I'm so glad you stopped by. I've been missing all my B-complex ladies! Have you been to the doctor yet? Do you have an appointment with the midwife? You and your DH must be so, so, over-the-moon happy. A little Christmas baby :happydance::cloud9: You really deserve this and I just know this will be your forever bean.

Hope to hear from you really, really soon. And just remember to take it easy and let your DH look after you! Sending you and your amazing LO lots and lots and lots of :hugs:

Horseypants great to hear from you again! So sorry the spotting has started again but try not to worry. I'm so glad you saw a heartbeat, it makes you feel so much more at ease and lets you know that LO is doing just fine. Just remember to take it easy and don't try to do too much. And my GP said no exercise while your spotting, so just make sure you're relaxing as much as possible. I know the spotting is scary but it's so much more common than we all think.

And I take it you've just recently got engaged? That's wonderful news, I'm so very happy for you both. :happydance:

Sending you and your LO lots of :hugs: and :cloud9:

Hey! Sorry for my very delayed reply. Thank you. I'm chuffed too but really struggling to accept that it is real and nothing bad will happen. My only symptom is still only sore bbs.

I'm glad I'm not spotting too. Had some pinky beige cm the other day and nearly freaked out. My SIL is pregnant, 4 weeks ahead. She had bad spotting in week 6, I kept telling her that I know someone who spotted and everything was just fine. Good to know your MS didn't start until 6 1/2 weeks. I've been so worked it hadn't started but need to remind myself that I am only 5 + 3.

Got my first midwife appointment on the 10th May and scan booked for the 11th June but going to move it to the 13th so DH can come. I may also get a private scan. Can't decide. It's ££ and ££ I could spend on something for the baby but I just want to know everything is ok esp as I'm not going to be able to hide to from friends at the beginning of June. Just not sure.

So pleased everything is going well for you. How are you feeling now? Have you started buying anything?

:hugs:
 
Welcome to the thread Jut3k - as the other ladies have said brown spotting is the best kind to get as the chances are it is old blood! I know when you're going through it though that doesn't really help!

I had my first appointment due to spotting at just gone 4 weeks and they wouldn;t really do anything - after pushing it as 5 weeks they did blod tests to check if my HCG was doubling after 48 hrs - it was! I then had my first scan at 5 wk 5 days and saw the sac in the right place. I would push for blood test if I were you just for reassurance - but no cramps is a great sign!!

Horseypants that is great news - massive congratualtions to you!! What an exicting time, a new baby and a wedding to plan!!

Kellie and Horseypants - I would say chances are it is cervical! if they can't see anything on the scan and say it is unexplained this is usually the case! I really don;t understand why they don't do more internals to check the cervix as it would put our minds at rest! After my 4th trip to the hospital at 12 weeks for bleeding (I passed 3 pretty big clots) I was finally seem by a gynae who did an internal and told me she could see abnormalitis on my cervix and diagnosed me with cervical ectropian (or cervical erosion) which is basically the cause of my bleeding but will have no effect on baby or the pregnancy - after I realised this I have felt much better about everything!!

If your spotting does continue / come back might be worth mentioning this to your MW? There is nothing that can be done about it during pregnancy but it does give you piece of mind!!

Sending out big hugs to you all - you will be out of Tri 1 before you know it - I remember saying to Akblaze and Happenstance I never thought I would see 12 wks and here I am nearly 16 wks!! It goes faster than you think!

Thinking of you all!
 
Hi all, I just came back from the OB and he got 3 theories because he did not see any sac yet:
1. The worst is it would be an ectopic pregnancy, but since he thought it was too early since he can't see any signs yet, this theory is something that he still can't rule out yet.
2. Second, it is blighted ovum. If it is, then i will need d/c.
3. Another good possibility: The little one just coming a bit late than usual.
So he is asking me to come back within two weeks and told me to go to er fast if i am feeling bad cramps and/or heavy bleeding.
My dearest new friends, I am now extremely worried! Has anyone got any experience like this that you can share with me? I am praying that everything will turn out fine in two weeks, but I know the wait will be soooo agonizing for me :(
 
I really think that you need to demand a blood test to check your hcg levels - if they are not doubling in 48 hours then there is a problem - which could be ectopic or blighted ovum however if it is either of these you need to know ASAP as they could be potentially dangerous (especially ectopic)

Did he do an external or internal ultrasound? I had an external at 4 weeks 5 days (it was one that had been scheduled before I was preg due to a long standing gynae issue) I told them I was pregnant and bleeding and they told me that they couldn't see anything but they wouldn't expect to at that point - I too was left to wait for 2 weeks but the following week I managed to get my bloods done so had that reassurance!!

I think if your doc thought it was actinic he def wouldn't be sending you away to wait! If I were you I would honestly demand they check your hcg!

Big good luck
 
CharlieJo, really? Okay I'll go back on Friday and demand for it then... I am now feeling sooooo crappy I can't even think straight. I'll pull myself together and will do the most logical thing! Blood test ... I was so shocked when I didn't see anything and that he told me the possibilities and asked me to wait another 2 weeks, that made me froze. Thanks for the inputs and ideas, I will sure to ask for a blood test then.

Oh I forgot to mention, I had both internal and external u/s, the doctor was looking curious himself. He tried to locate an ectopic but couldn't find one yet either.

I would definitely request the quantitative hcg! If your levels are consistently rising then at least you can put your mind at rest.
I will say though, that the first ultrasound tech (when I went to the ER at 5 weeks) who said it was probably a false positive (even though my hcg was at 91) was definitely wrong. My little girl was just a late bloomer! So it does happen! I put it down to her just taking her sweet time to implant. That could very well be the case! I know it's hard but try your hardest not to stress too much!
I really really hope you get some answers soon and that they agree to the blood work!!
Please keep us updated!
Sending lots of hugs and sticky dust!!!
:hugs::hugs::hugs:

How is everyone else doing? sending hugs to all of you and your lovely LO's!! :hugs:
 
Well my dreaded spotting returned last night!! It was very light and when I wiped after a BM - I didn't feel like I had strained too much but prob did more so than I have been doing (that will teach me to get cocky after 3 weeks of no spotting!)

It was only there when I wiped once and then went - I know the gynae warned me this will prob be a consistent thing throughout the pregnancy but its still so upsetting to see it after all that time!

Oh well I listend to LO HB on my doppler - still going strong in the 150's - so I know all is good and I know if is cervical but it is more annoying than anything else! Just 3 weeks and 6 days til my next scan (not that I am counting or anything hee hee)

Poor OH is getting very stressed though as we haven't BD'd since the spotting started nearly 3 months ago - I told him if I managed to go a full month without I would consider it - he was so close haha!

Anyway hope you ladies are all doing well!!
 
CharlieJo, awww noooo!!!! I'm sorry your spotting returned! Hopefully it doesn't stick around long. I'm sorry you'll probably have to continue dealing with it throughout the whole pregnancy. But just think, your at a spot now that the chance of a loss is so slim!!! :happydance: I know that only helps so much though when you still deal with the dreaded spotting!

That's great that your LO's HB is nice and strong on the doppler! It's soooo reassuring when you can listen to the HB when you have spotting! I think the home use doppler was a fantastic invention! Hey, now they just need to invent affordable home use ultrasound machines for us!!!! :haha: I think we'd all be addicted!!!

As for not DTD... I don't blame you! I probably wouldn't either, well, I for sure wouldn't if I was having spotting. Who am I kidding, I haven't had any since we got pregnant!!!! Ohh..deployments... :dohh: I'm sure it might suck for your OH at times but I'm also sure he understands :)

I hope your spotting goes away quick and you get another break from it!!! Maybe your cervix will begin to be nice and the spotting will stop!! I'll be keeping my fingers crossed!!! Sending you and your lovely orange baby loads of hugs! :hugs::hugs:
 
guys i just had to bust in here and say that oh and i had "teenager sex" last night, with no actual penetration. :rofl: it was great!
 
horseypants, bahaha :rofl: that's great!!!
I'm glad you guys are still able to enjoy yourselves regardless of the spotting returning! :winkwink:
 
i've been so tired and work is kicking my butt! by the time i get home, im ready to throw a fit and fall asleep like a flipping toddler. how is everyone feeling?

akblaze, tell me what it's like to be an eggplant? happenstance? how's life as a mango? and charlie, what's it like to be an orange? others too, how would you characterize your mood, and challenges at this point in your pregnancy? when people say "enjoy your pregnancy," what about this stage can you say you are enjoying and loving?

me, i am a raspberry for one more day and so far, it has been such a roller coaster! especially the last couple days, i am very emotional and tired. eating and sleeping have become way more important to me than i can remember them ever having been. if i dont eat/sleep/feel safe/protected, i turn into a monster instantly! i kicked oh out of the bedroom last night cause he went to bed without me. i was mad cause i felt like i had waited up all night, exhausted, waiting for him to talk on the phone and do every little thing. i've been messing up stuff at work too. -but these things make me feel like maybe stuff's cooking good in there lol and the fact that my emotions are out of control and i feel different in general is reassuring. it's fun to baby myself when i get a chance, even if it's just reading b&b and dreaming of the future :).
 
Hi, everyone...

I've kind of been stalking this thread for awhile, but now I felt the need to actually respond (I've responded on a few bleeding threads, but I don't think I've responded on this one.)

I'll try to make my story short. :)

I've had brown spotting ever since the day before my bfp (bfp was on April 9, so April 8 was first day of brown blood, so it's been about 3.5 weeks now.) I had my hcg levels tested on 12dpo (11!) and 14dpo (45). I had an early ultrasound scheduled for 6.5 weeks and they told me to just keep an eye on the spotting.

Well, the spotting never stopped, so last Monday (so about a week and a half ago) I called my Dr. again, and said the spotting hadn't let up at all. They sent me for an emergency scan and they saw a sac. They measured me at 5 weeks 1 day.

Then last week, I called my Dr. AGAIN and asked that my hcg be tested again as well as progesterone. I don't know what my Thursday numbers were, but on Saturday my hcg was over 20,000. They never mentioned what my progesterone was, but they did say it seemed fine.

FINALLY, yesterday I went in for another ultrasound, and they measured me at 6 weeks and 2 days (this is about a full week off from my last period, BUT I think I ovulated on CD18, and with implantation varying, I guess that's about right...) We were able to see a heartbeat a 118!! It was amazing! Oh, and our due date is Christmas Eve!

Now here's for my worry: I'm still spotting (not enough to fill pad, but I wear pantyliner every day, and some days it is more than others.) It is always brown, never red. My Dr. was concerned about it too. She sent me for a Rhogam shot (which I had to also have in January because I miscarried). We set up another appointment for 2 weeks. She did say that if I'm still spotting in 2 weeks that she would be even more concerned. So NOW I'm worrying about that. If I'm still spotting...then what?

She said she couldn't see anything on the u/s that she thought was contributing to the bleeding, and mentioned that 50% of pregnancies bleed (while some of those lead to miscarriage, some don't.)

I also asked her about the chances of miscarriage going down since we saw the heartbeat, and she said that was only accurate after 10 weeks. So, at 10 weeks (still a month away) if we can HEAR a heartbeat, chances go down to about 2%.

I'm just terrified. I'm so excited, but worried too.
 
Horseypants, Sorry I didn't write back sooner. Past couple days have been kind of blah. I think the weather isn't helping... Ugh only in Alaska will it snow in May! :growlmad: It's like winter part 10! I'm so tired of it!!! It quit snowin but now its rain and hail. I need to move to the beach... Oh that would be the life!!!! :haha: Do you live near the beach??? If you do you might have to adopt me... and my LO... :winkwink:

Anyways! That was my daily rant... lol.

Well to be honest, I didn't start really enjoying my pregnancy until I was around 22 weeks because I was getting migraines every other day. Now I get one about every two weeks but I'm soooo exhausted 24/7. Also, I never had that frequent urination early in pregnancy but now... bahaha the tinkle pot is my BFF!!! :blush: But that's normal considering my uterus is the size of a soccer ball now! However, it makes me quite frustrated at night. Oh, and the horrible hip and back pain, especially while sleeping... it's so rough! I get the worst sleep now-a-days!

The best part of pregnancy for me (at 26 weeks) is feeling my little girl moving around sooo much. I read that they are most active between 25 and 28 weeks because they are getting stronger and still have plenty of space. It's a feeling that is indescribable and never gets old! She puts so many smiles on my face and it makes all the aches and pains worth it!!
As far as my mood, I haven't been super hormonal at all, like in a mean way. I'm just a huge baby! :blush: I cry at EVERYTHING on TV!!!! lol.

Haha awww! That's cute that you got mad and kicked your OH out of the room!!!! I'm sure he didn't think it was cute but hopefully he understands :) It's completely normal to feel that way. Our bodies are going through HUGE changes!
I definitely don't think you have anything to worry about :) I'm sure your LO is cookin up nice and beautifully just waitin to be able to show off at the next ultrasound!! :D

It's wonderful also, to baby yourself! Remember, When your able to relax so is your little one and they just love it! :) Even if it's just simple things!!

I hope you and your LO are doing fantastic!!!! Sending you both loads of hugs!!!! :hugs::hugs::hugs:

rkb15, Welcome to our thread and congrats on your BFP!! :)
I'm so sorry that it has been so stressful!!! Also, to hear about your previous loss. :hugs:
As you might have read, I had a lot of spotting too from the beginning all through first tri. It was sometimes red, pink, and brown.
My OB had told me that if I'm going to bleed then brown is the best color I can hope for because that is old blood. We also never saw a reason for my spotting.. I think I saw that as a little more reassuring because at least we knew there was no actual problem.. but I don't know maybe that was just my way of thinking to accept the situation more.
Your hcg levels are great! and seeing the Heart beat, I never heard that your risk for miscarriage only drops after ten weeks.. I thought once you saw the HB then the risk drops right then, but I could be wrong!

It's normal to feel all different emotions. It's like your so happy to be pregnant but your so scared because of the spotting and don't know how it will end. The best thing you can do for you and your LO is to try to stay positive!
Know that we are here for you every step of the way!
Do you have another scan scheduled?

Sending you and your LO lots and lots of sticky dust and hugs!!!! :hugs:

Happenstance!!!!!!! We're missing youu and your LO!!!!!!!!! :hugs:
 
Hey everyone :flower:

I'm so excited, I have made it to 12 weeks :happydance: :happydance:

I honestly can't wait to move to second tri, these first 12 weeks have been so difficult. I have my 12 week scan thurs and am so scared of mmc now. My bad ms, sore boobs and food aversions trailed off at just after 10 weeks, I Have only been sick twice in the last week and only feel sick whilst eating big meals where as before I was sick sooooooo much. I had no bleeding for nearly two weeks, so how nice for it to return yesterday whilst on holiday! My very much growing bump also feels tight and crampy which I am hoping is just stretching. I'm going to try and purchase a Doppler today, to try and put my mid at ease. Will update thurs after scan, please keep your fingers crossed for me!

Love to you all :hugs:
 
Hi all, just came back from the OB with a bit of disappointment. If I measure correctly I am entering my 6th week, the us shows nothing still and the spotting continues. He said I might have decidual bleeding due to the non presence of the sac and the fetus, thus it is the high level of estrogen that made my body thought that it is pregnant and prepared the place for the future baby. He gave me some pills to neutralize my condition back to normal, but I've decided to wait another week before doing that.
I heard some women have this condition up to their 8th week before anything showed up in the us and so I will wait for some more hope.
