Wanting to know how you went with your 2 week wait? I had 2 stringy mucus clots early this morning I'm 11 weeks pregnant. Went to local hospital this morning and ultrasound shows a heart beat and a wriggly bub. Apparently not uncommon to have some bleeding and they aren't worried after seeing what looks to be a healthy bub, worried I overreacted but they reassured me to go back if concerned and they can always do another ultrasound.

What have been the outcomes of everybody else's pregnancies?

Hi just reading the comments. Im 4/5 weeks pregnant and on Saturday i got bad cramps and bled. I went to the docs and i got an internal. The doc said that my cervix was closed. An that intercoursee could have brought on tgeb pain and bleeding. But after the internal i bled more and got a small cloat. Is this normal? .

 I am not sure if that I am regnant or not. If i am I am possibly around 9 weeks. I was having these same symptoms (blood clots  light bleeding) and it could very well be Subchorionic Bleeding During Pregnancy. It  is normal in early pregnancy.  It can be caused by implantation or just a blood clot between the uterine wall and the sac. The treatment is just rest, relax, and the doctor may put you on bed rest. Also the doctor would suggest to have no intercourse till it had settled down, and no heavy lifting of course, and no heavy exercising. The doctor will have you come back in a week or two to look at the placenta around the placenta, and Uterine wall to see if the blood clot has gone away. Or it can just be the the uterus is expanding as well. It can startle you as did for me.

I know all these posts I am replying to are quite old, but for those who may be passing by, reading and having heart failure RELAX it is perfectly normal to have light blood spotting, dark brown (from blood) discharge and clots. When these symptoms come along with heavy bleeding, and excruciating holding your stomach in pain cramping THEN it is time to worry. Otherwise, remain calm, some women bleed throughout their entire pregnancy. And light cramping is just part of pregnancy, also your intenstines are being pushed around to make room for your growing uterus. Constipation @ gas pains are just some of the lovely effects of the miracle of pregnancy, ha. Just take your prenatals, keep hydrated and get LOTS of rest. It's all we can really do. Love&Aloha

I have exact symptoms! Even down to breast tenderness going away.. And nausea going away. Not sure how far along I am, dr said I was too early on the ultrasound. I'm scheduled for Tuesday an ultrasound but since Thursda my first clot at 4 am. I have had a miscarriage before but I remember it being different. I am trying to stay calm but that is impossible at this point.

Hi everyone. Just wanted to put in my two cents on this question if anyone else is experiencing similar problems. I too had light spotting and small blood clots during week 6 of my pregnancy. When I went to my first doctor's appointment today, I was so scared that I couldn't tell if the nausea I was feeling was because of fear of bad news or morning sickness!

Upon getting an ultrasound, I was told that my baby had a healthy heartbeat and I likely experienced spotting (which was brown) due to implantation (which is a good thing!), and that the color brown is indicative of old blood accumulated in the uterus or cervix. They weren't sure what caused the blood clots, but that said that it is not uncommon (and neither is the spotting) because as your uterus grows and you experience hormonal changes, your body will attempt to "clean out" bad organisms itself as your uterine lining develops. I have another ultrasound next week because it was so early to check on the heartbeat.

You should see your doctor immediately if you have heavy bleeding and severe cramping, but that does NOT necessarily mean miscarriage. Anyone who tells you that bleeding during pregnancy is uncommon doesn't know what they are talking about.

The bottom line is that everyone is different and there are no black and white rules on how your body is "destined" to act during pregnancy. Also, when I was freaking out, I wish someone would have told me to relax. Focus on the positive, and quit worrying about things that haven't happened yet!While most women go on to have uneventful, healthy pregnancies, the possibility of miscarriage is excruitiating. Most miscarriages are due to chromosomal abnormalities and are decided without your control. The healthiest woman can do everything right, and if its not God or nature's plan, the pregnancy might end before it really begins no matter what you do. Pray for strength to accept the things you cannot change, courage to change the things you can (I'm still struggling with the fact that I can never smoke again!) and most importantly, the wisdom to know the difference.

Good luck and god bless
