bleeding and clotting during first trimester

Hello everybody,
Sitting on my couch right now going through the same as you all. I've been to the e.r. twice with my heavy bleeding, it started tuesday and today friday it's still going strong.
At the e.r. i had blood tests which shows my levels are still rising and a ultrasound that detected the gestational sac but no heart beat.
I think that what bothers us all the most is the response that we get: If you are having a miscarriage there's nothing we can do to stop it since you are still early in your pregnancy (6 weeks).
And to some of us the bleeding won't go away and the appoitments are still days away, it is a very scary and loinely situation, is the baby going to leave my body or am i becoming a mom in a few months?
I guess we can only pray, but i am happy to have read other women experiences with this and even reading some positive outcomes, hopefully mine will be good too. Good luck and the best of health to you and your baby.

 going through the same thing. i am currently 5 weeks and i had my first u/s last sat and saw the baby. then on sat 05/7 i started to spot. then the next day got a lil heavyer like my usal im passing blood cloots but my cervix is still closed. i went in to the er and said im haveing a t/m. so on monday 5/09 i wen to check if everytihng is okay and they couldn't find the baby but my hcg levels are still going up? could i be misscaed ? well i have to wait til 05/11 to find out i have a 50/50 chance. :/

I am glad I read all this letters posted. I am in a situation where in just this morning I went to my doctor to confirm that I am pregnant after 4 times of home pregnancy testing using a urine test which all came out positive. But in the afternoon after my doctor's visit, I felt a sudden gosh of fluid came out but I ignore it, when I went to the restroom, blot clot came out. Upon seeing that I felt that I have miscarriage. I felt so bad about it, because I was expecting to have a second baby after four years of trying. The result of my blood test is not back yet and was late already to get a doctor's appointment. But after that, the bleeding stopped but spotting is still there. For the past 6-7 days I have been experiencing spotting which I thought I am going to have my period, but when I did a pregnancy test after talking to a friend who suggested to do pregnancy test after feeling weird about my spotting that took longer, it was positive. As of now I think I have 50/50 chance, and after reading all these, it gave me hope which I pray that some how God will grant me this pregnancy. I am schedule to see my doctor in two days. Thank everyone...

I am so glad that i am not the only one having this issue. Quite frightening to me since my first child was fine.  I am 5 weeks 2 days into my pregnancy and i started bleeding 5 days ago, some days are better then others but today i passed a few blood clots. I have cramping but nothing less then normal period cramping. i have been to the ER 3 times in 5 days because of my concern but my HCG levels are rising as they should be and my urine is fine. they have done 2 transvaginal ultrasounds and they both look as if i have a pregnancy sac nut no baby or stem. i go in next week to see if there is a heartbeat. its very frightening to know that it could well indeed be a miscarriage. But i am glad i am not along.

I'm  5 weeks pregnant with my first child. I'm having scary complications since Dec 23 this week I've had to go to the MW bleeding (first time was moderate, second time was heavier than a period). Cramps have been mild to severe. Both times I thought for sure I was having a miscarriage, but when I got to the Doc. she suggested a blood test to se my hormone labels. and I should rest as much as I can ,I, being resting from Dec23 past Christmas on bed . The whole thing has been traumatic -- I think it would be much easier to have a miscarriage and start over, but instead we're in this strange limbo.. If you've had a similar experience, I'd love to hear about it. Did you do bed rest? Did you end up having a miscarriage? Did you end up having the baby? What should I know? 

this is exactly what I'm going through right now. This is also our first conception after trying for a long time. You get so attached to it. The first time I bled heavily, I cried and cried so much. I pray for everyone. This has been the hardest. I keep praying. It's all God's will.

i'm posting under my husbands name but here's what happened to me just yesterday...

jeff and i went over to our neighbors to watch some t.v. i had been cramping all day long. i wanted some chocolate pudding and so he left to go over to our house. prior to his leaving i had been having contraction like pains for about an hour or two.

so he left to go get the pudding and i got up feeling the contraction come on again. and what i felt was a gush walked three steps more and gushed again then sat on the toilet and felt my body expel something followed by a lot of blood.

i screamed for jeff... screamed so loud as i started to shake and go into shock... i remember him running into the house and screaming "where are you?" and he kept asking me what's going on why was i screaming and he saw my face and sat in front of me trying to get me to calm down. i was shaking so bad that i couldn't get myself to stop. he tried to hold down my legs to calm down. the bleeding was heavy and i told him to call the ambulance.

after he called he came back in and tried to calm me down.

i heard the sirens and heard them come in the emts came in asked me about the questions, they looked into the toilet from which all i could see was deep red and black... i cried some more as they escorted me to the stretcher. they were putting me into the emt and i saw our penis neighbors staring at me like i was a freak show and my emts were trying to get me to cheer up and calm down. and on our way they were really nice and sweet. they made me smile and come back to reality.

we got into the e.r. where they took more blood from me and had me do a pelvic exam and my doctor had performed it said she saw clots but also saw something that she didn't know for sure what it was. so she had me do an ultrasound and found out it was my 6 week fetus. i cried. i didn't know how to feel then i went numb i saw jeff's face go from white to colored as if he felt the hope too. she found it but she couldn't find a heart beat. so we waited. and she had me go to the ultrasound tech. she took pictures of the baby and my ovaries and such and we waited.

the doctor came back in and said that i was in the process of miscarriage and i was so doped up on morphine that i didn't care... i just sat there dazed. at 3 oclock this morning i just started to come back to reality again and all i can do is cry. i want to blow up the doctors office for not seeing me sooner... i fhate everything right now but at the same time i become numb... i dunno how to react

~ so later on today i have felt crampy but have not passed what looks like a fetus of any sort just small blood clots and not a lot of blood... so in a way i'm hopeful but at the same time my hope has been diminished :( i hope everything is ok but i'm ready to accept the fact if it isn't

I am currently unaware of how far along i am as my blood work puts me at 9 weeks but my first ultrasound said i was 6 weeks... to confusing for me... i just thought i would let everyone know that some women can still get their periods during pregnancy, my Aunty got it every month - heavy and light - till she gave birth 9 months later. That totally sucks right - i mean - that's just not suppose to happen. But in some cases it does - no reason and no explination.

I am currently spotting and clotting and have googled every topic and found every single one useful! Thank you for posting your eperiences/ opinions... the best thing i have found for anyone to do is to consult your doctor. And if he's not doing everything he can possibly do to answer your queries, get a second and a third opinion. Right now i'm trying not to let it stress me out, believe me it's very hard, until i get the results from blood, urine and ultrasound. In the end, if it's meant to be it's meant to be. Look out for the signs, intense loss of blood and painful cramping, and keep your doctor as well informed of your progress as physically possible. Try not to stress, as stress is a major no no when your pregnant, i know it's going to be very hard but hang in there - your stronger than you know!

I have an appointment with my doctor this afternoon. Getting a little anxious to speak to him. My preyres and thoughts are with every Mum and Dad out there ;-)

 

My wife is currently 2-3 weeks pregnant. few days ago she started bleeding and also experienced some clotting as well. We made an appointment with our doctor and she informed us that her cervix is closed and that he confirmed with an ultrasound that my wife was still carrying a baby and has not miscarried. Our doctor told her that she is threatned to miscarry and she should take it very easy. The baby did not have any heartbeat yet because it was too early for that. We are supposed to go back next week to possible detect a heartbeat and make sure that the baby is growing and doing fine. Bleeding has almost totalyy little stop and blood change the black colour as per Dr. Say to her its happen . We are very worried and I was wondering if anyone has experineced anything like this with good outcome?? Thanks wether the baby born normal or ubnormal afetr the ninth month

My fiancée started bleeding yesterday, been to hospital today. Hormones at 430, cervix closed, back at hospital on Tuesday in the hope that levels are higher for a scan. Both very scared tonight as bleeding has let to a clot. We fear the worst, but ur stories have made us more positive. Very scared right now. Hope to god we can have this miracle. JN
