I am pregnant and not sure how far along I am. My blood levels are at 3000 and they still have no visual of a sac or fetus. I went to the hospital the other night due to light cramping and clotting. My cervix was still closed and everything well, but they still considered it a threatened miscarriage. I went back to my dr. for a check up and she can not tell at this point whether or not she can tell if its a bad pregnancy or not. She told me that at my first appointment on monday my hcg levels were 2800 and on weds when i went to the hospital they were 3000. The dr says that within 24-48 hours your numbers should double but she is not sure about these numbers because they were taken from 2 different labs and their equipment could have an effect on that. So I am due to go back on monday for more blood tests to tell if my numbers are raising or decreasing. My bf said that he talked to a couple of women whom went through clotting, cramping, and they ended up having a healthy pregnancy. It is said that This happens to about 20 percent of women.I am very scared and want this baby to care for and love. I really hope that best for all you scared women out there and hope we can all go on with a healthy pregnancy.
Hello everyone. Im about 5 weeks pregnant and at first, i was upset to discover this little person inside of me cuz i have not yet graduated from college (one more year), but as time grew along with my stomach, i became so in love with this baby. i had an ultrasound on 6/12 and the technologist said everything looked fine. the baby looks fine (although too early for a heartbeat), my insides look fine, nothing to worry about, right? Then about three days later, i saw brown discharge. So i called my obgyn and she said it was probably from the sonogram (cuz it was internal) and to take it easy. Then it went from brown, to light red, to dark red (new blood) accompanied by clots of tissue! I cried and cried and cried. I love this baby so much, why did it leave me? I had blood work done to see if my HGC levels are increasing as they should, but im almost 90% sure i lost my baby. The bleeding wont stop, i have to wear sanitary napkins, and a big chunk of tissue came out of me while i was using the bathroom.
Everyone, please pray for me. I am a firm believer of "everything happens for a reason and God has the ultimate plan", but DAMN! Why me? Is this payback for me having two abortions a few years ago? I hope im still pregnant, but i doubt it. I wont question the Lord. I'll just hold in my tears, realize its not my fault, and keep it movin!

I am five weeks pregnant and started spotting about a week ago, then on day five I started bleeding more not like my period and last night I started passing clots. I have taken five pregnancy test that confirmed I was pregnant and one of them was at the doctors office, after I started bleeding not just spotting I took a sixth test and it came up negative. The doctor is running blood test I did one yesterday and I do one tomorrow and then I go in on the following day to see if my levels are climbing. I am scared, hurt and worried. I have had four children and never had anything like this happen with them, but I was in my twenties and thirties, now I am forty-one so being pregnant now is a little different. I will let you know what I find I still have hope but am ready to deal with what ever the doctor says. I know that God is in control of this situation and he knows what is best. I will pray for all the others who have post.
Hi all-
I am 6 weeks pregnant today, but started having really heavy bleeding last night. I was cramping some, but not as bad as normal. Today I went to the doctor to have a transvaginal ultrasound, but the doctor is not very sure if what she saw is the gestational sac. She took some blood to check my HcG levels and I am to return on Monday for another blood level check to show an increase or decrease in the levels. I am so scared at this point, because I really want this to just be a symptom and not a problem. The clots I passed today are making me a little nervous (I mean a lot). Waiting until the end of next week is like torture. My husband asks that I speak things as though they are not....So.....I will say that I will be okay...my baby is growing healthier and healthier by the minute. Stay encouraged All.....

hey everyone.
so three days ago i started with a very mild cramp on my right side, it was consistant but very tollerable. that night my fiance & i had intercourse, the next morning the cramps where extremly painful. i couldnt tollerate it any more so my fiance rushed me to urgent care. they took a urine sample && i was informed that i have a urinary track infection.. & that im pregnant. i didnt believe it, my fiance & i had had intercourse for 10 months with no protection and i had never been pregnant. i was so happy and so was he. well later that day i discovered that when i wiped that i had brown blood. i was worried so i looked things up and it showed alot of newley pregnant women had cramping and light bleeding. yesterday i had extremley bad cramps again so i went to the ER. they tried doing ultra sounds but didnt see anything. they took blood and found my HCG was only 1200 and it had to be a 1500 to see anything. Im suppose to go in tomorrow to see if my HCG has doubled our lowered. they think it might be an ectopic pregnancy because im only having pains on one side, they also think because of the light bleeding and cramping im having a misscarrage. well scared to death i really want this baby & i dont know if i could take the fact that all things happen for a reason. my fiance looked somethings up about urinary track infections, it shows that the pain can be low or extremley high, and is generally located near one of your pelvic bones. (that where my pain is located) it also said that you may have blood becasue the kidneys have little cuts in them. well i was thinking this was what was wronge, untill about 20 min ago i went to the bathroom and when i wiped i saw a little clot no bigger then the size of a chocolate chip. im extremley scared. if anyone has any info, or experiance please please let me know!

hello there im having the same problem im currently nearly 7 weeks pregnant and im bleeding and clotting slightly too i went for a scan 2 days ago which showed a heartbeat fetal pole ext im really terrified the midwives have not said that much at all apart from the yolk sac they found and that the baby was fine. my scan showed no reason for me to bleed so im thinking maybe it was an implantation bleed but again the guess could be as good as anyones im just hoping all goes well and ill have a healthy baby at the end of this xx
Hi everyone. This is my first post. I have been going around to every forum and ask-a-doctor service on the internet. I have also rung around doctors and hospital without any proper answer. This is my problem...
My wife has gone to a developing country for an extended break - from the UK - she is 12 weeks pregnant. 7 days ago she noticed dark brown bleeding but had no pain at all. She went to the local doctor in the area who did an ultrasound but could not see much (I guess the systems and machines here are not good). They told her to bed rest and come back again in few days if bleeding did not stop.
Bleeding continued, so she went again on Friday. This time scan showed baby was fine and all was well. No cause of bleeding was found.
It is now Sunday, 1 week gone, and bleeding is continuing. Still no pain. Wife changes pads whenever she uses bathroom and always there is blood. As the blood has been coming for a week she is feeling weak and drained. She is hoping to go for another scan on Tuesday. She does not trust the doctors in that country as they are always finding ways to make more money - so they could be making things up.
I am in UK and very worried. This is our second child, having had one by c-section end of 2007. And no problems at all during that pregnancy.
Want to know if she has lost the baby, and if she has how can she be sure?
Could the dark blood be from losing the baby from few weeks ago, remember she has never had any pain?
If she was to loose the baby, with her having been bleeding for a week now, should she have lost it by now?
And, as she had scan on Friday and all was well, does that mean she will now not loose baby due to this blood?
How long will this blood continue for?
What will she notice if she looses baby?
Please someone do respond.

Rung wife around 4.30 pm when she was about to sleep, over there it was about 9.30pm. She said going to hospital in morning.
The got a phone call from wife at 5.00am in the morning. I was asleep. She said she was in hospital. She woke up at 2am their time with extreme pain. Her screams woke up the rest of the house. And she the became unconcious. Her brothers and sisters tried to revive her but were not able to do anything. They got the car out and took her to the hospital - nearest one was 45 minutes away. She was not concious throughout.
Once theey got to hospital, the doctors managed to revive her. However, they told her something to do with the baby was making her very ill and it was lucky she woke up and screamed. If she had not done that then she would have died if no one else had heard her screams and woke up.
They told her featus was growing fine but you are not able to keep it in. You have to abort the baby or else you will die within hours. She then had no choice but to abort the baby.
When she rung me at 5am everything had been done and she was getting ready to go back home. She was upset and said she was sorry that she has aborted the baby. She asked me not to be angry and that when she returns we will try again. I consoled her and said God willing, this time next year we will have a child and this baby was not meant to be.

Hi there,
I am supposedly just about to complete my 6th week. I am 32 and this is our first pregnancy. We have been trying for a while, so when I saw the second line on the pregrancy test, I thought for a while that I was dreaming.
My job requires me to travel often. I am now sitting in bed in a hotel, after a night of no sleep and constant crying.
I flet a clot yesterday when I was finished with my meetings and found out that I bled quite heaviliy, really heavily, like the start of a period... I called my doctor and he said there is a chance I did not miscarry. I am traveling back today and he will see me right away. He is a friend so that helps get some symphathy, I dont know if I can wait for another day, yet alone weeks, to find out. But I still have some bleeding.
I didnt have very strong pregnancy symptoms so I cant tell if they are gone or not.
What is the most irnonic is, I was so upset yesterday and the day before about work, I can't believe it now. This really hurts.
Reading these posts got my hopes up. I hope I didnt lose it. I know there is a reason for everything; and I feel quite selfish hoping that I am the spared one. But I do. I do hope that I will get good news today and this night in the hotel will be registered as a nightmare and a small warning that you should really set your priorities right in life.
Lots of love to every other stranger out there who shared my pain and helplessness through last night. Thank you.

Please do let me know how you got on. My wife also travelled in a long 12 hour airplane journey - when she was 8 weeks pregnant. And as you can see from my post, one before the last, she lost the baby at 12 weeks.
Now I believe the marraige is also crumbling. My wife is constantly crying whenever I ring her. She does answer my phone calls, and rings back when she can not answer, but she is not opening up to me - she is not even talking to me. To each of my questions, she either replies yes or no. I have to find subjects to talk about - if I don't then phone from her end goes silent. She cheers up as soon as I say, "OK then you take care and I will call you tomorrow."
I am worried that she wont return to the UK as she planned for, in a few weeks time. I really would not want that to happen as we have a 1 year old child - who is currently with my wife. I am unable to live without either of them. If she was not to return, then I would say I will be loosing my child also. That would be loosing wife, unborn child, and 1 year old within days or weeks. Not sure if I can live without them - I might just let myself pass away - do something to myself.
Can someone advice me on what to do - how to get my wife talking to me again? I am not physically able to travel to her to talk with her face to face. And also my finances are very low.
I think this could be the end for me.

iam going through the same thing i started bleeding red for five minutes and now i have brown blood clots coming out the doctor did an ultra sound and everything was ok and my blood work was ok as well and my cervix was closed but im still freaked out about this whole situation and when i started to bleed i felt pain but only for 3 minutes then it was gone im on my 8th week of pregnancy and this is my 6th child any feed back on this thanks
My husband and I just recently just found out we are pregnant I went to to doctor to confirm it, had my blood taken and my hormone level was low so they wanted to retest my blood a few days later, well the day before i was supposed to go in, i started spotting and then it got heavier and started clotting kind of bad for a day and the next day was just like a light period .. so i just got my blood taken the other day waiting for results.. but my husband and i are nervous.(one good sign is that im not bleeding any longer and no cramping).and these stories are helping us keep our heads up! But we also know everything does happen for a reason, and atleast we know i can get pregnant and theres always time for more trying!! thanks for all who have posted something..
I'm 6 1/2 weeks pregnant and had incredibly heavy bleeding two nights ago with very strong stabbing pains and passed 3 what I now know were blood clots - and as seems to be common I assumed I had miscarried! But I had a scan today and the little heart beat is fluttering away safe and sound I was so surprised! There are still clots in there so still at risk but I've been told not to freak out when the next lot of bleeding happens, and that there will be lots. I just have to keep my fingers crossed for my next scan in another week.
Swadez, My thoughts and prayers are with you and hope you wife returns soon. Keep a positive but don't pressure her. Also remember to pray as God really cares about you.
Second pregnancy and I am looking at a tough road I know. My first is now 10, with this one I started to spot at about and had to wait a week and a half for a ultrasound. I was sure I was about 8 weeks pregnant, when I went to the Doctor for my results she told me that it looks like the fetus is only 5 weeks old, becuase I was SO sure on my dates, she said, it looks like I carried the baby until 5 weeks and then it stopped developing, though I am still carrying the sack and fetal pole right now because my body has not let them go. I was heart broken, she said she wanted to get my hGC levels and see if they were declining. I went for the blood test and when she called me with the results she said they were consistent with a woman who is 5 weeks pregnant and wanted me to do them again. On friday I went in for my blood work, today (saturday) I have started to spot and have had 3 clots the size of pin pricks. I know they are not huge but my body feels off. I know there is nothing I can do to change the out come of the miscarriage and I will deal with it if it should happen. I wonder if it is normal for your body to hold onto the baby even after it is gone for so long?
