I am so glad I found this. I am 6 weeks and started bleeding 5 days ago. I am having an aching pain in my lower stomach. I went to the emergency room and they checked my HCG levels and said they were perfect and that my cervix was closed. I have 3 children and I never had this happen before! I am so worried as I have had a miscarriage before. I will see my ob/gyn this week and I am hoping the baby is okay. My test are still coming back dark positive so I am hopeful. I will keep you updated.

I am 7 weeks pregnant, with what will be my 3rd...I'm 42 years old and my youngest is 21.  3 days ago I started seeing bright pink/red when wiping. Tonight I began cramping, like menstrual cramps and bleeding more. The toilet would be red after using it. The dr is having me go in for an ultrasound tomorrow. I never did any of this with my other two...naturally I'm totally scared I'm loosing this one, and with my age feel I won't have another chance.

I am in close to the same situation. I am 47. My youngest child will be turning 21 in July. I am approximately 4 to 5 weeks pregnant. A few days ago I started having some cramping. Nothing sharp or incredibly painful but that uncomfortable, achy type that you might get at the end of your period. When it started it was only in the evening and I would take some advil and it would ease off. Today, I have been uncomfortable for most of the day(at work). Just a little pinkish tinge when I wipe. Like you i am scared that something is going wrong. My husband and I did not plan on getting pregnant but we are both very happy. I have had 3 miscarriages over the years. One before my daughter was born(25 years ago), one between my daughter and my son and then just 3 years ago. Over a 3 week period of office visits and sonograms, things went from looking pretty good and actually getting a picture of the baby and heart beating, to some bleeding and severe pain and the next several scans showed no heartbeat-just an empty sack. That was heart-breaking and if something should happen this time, I do not think I can go through it again. My husband has already decided that if we miscarry this time, he will be getting a vasectomy asap. So my heart is with you. My thoughts and prayers that both you and your baby are healthy.

Thank you for your reply- I'm sorry to hear of your losses... I found out on Monday that I did indeed, miscarry. I'm in that "Numb" feeling stage, not hungry, sleeping a lot. I'm allowing it right now as I took a week off work. I've been content to stay home in the quiet- my daughter is coming to visit for a few days, so my wallowing in numbness is over- and she doesn't know I was pregnant in the first place. I wish you well with this baby. Prayers for a healthy outcome!

For the past few weeks I have been experiencing all the pregnancy known to man. Nausea, vomiting, cervical mucus, breast tenderness, headaches, lower backaches, etc. I took 1 home test which was negative and a urine test from my doctor which was also negative, but she did say it could have still been to early to tell so don't get discouraged. I missed my period and 6 days after I was late, I noticed a pinkish tan discharge. Then the discharge turned brownish reddish, now I'm bleeding. Its not that bad, its stringy and not like my regular period. I always have cramps and slight lower back pain along with the bleeding. I really nervous because I miscarried before and my boyfriend and I are trying to have a baby. I need some advice on what to do, I'm tying to stay positive but its hard to do when your don't know what's going on with your body. I feel pregnant but I just need a significant answer.

Signed,

My periods were usually irregular, once in 40 to 45 days mostly. I'm hypothyroid and happen to have PCODs too. Before we started planning for our baby, I went through all the necessary checks to make sure that my reports were right. I got my last periods on Mar 13th and if I got pregnant, which I believe I did, I'm running 6 weeks and 2 days now. I have had symptoms like sore breast for the past 2 weeks, frequent urination, and thick white discharge. I was hoping that this is it, when a couple of days back I felt nauseous for a couple of hours, it was horrible, but I was happy, thinking the end result would be nice. But all this while I tested negative on HPT. I thought it could be too early to show the hCG. This afternoon when I went to pee and wiped, I saw bright red blood with discharge, the discharge is not thick anymore. I got scared and called my doctor, she asked me to get a blood work as we are not sure yet. Now I'm cramping like my regular periods and bleeding very little, but if this is my periods, I usually dont bleed a lot on my first day. Breaks my heart a little, coz I had started believing that this is it, I will have a baby in dec. Could this be a miscarriage or just my periods indicating that I did not conceive? Anyone?!

Hi there, With my first child I bled everyday for the entire first trimester. Doctors couldn't explain why that was happening. I was bleeding with cramps and they thought I was having a miscarriage but every ultra sound turned out to be perfectly normal. My daughter was born prematurely at 34 wks but she's perfectly healthy. Good luck with your pregnancy.

My hubby and I have been trying for a bit to get pregnant. Well Friday I took 2 pregnancy test and they came out positive but only with a faint line. So I took another two yesterday and sure enough 2 more positives. I was so happy. But then this morning I went to the bathroom and noticed pale blood when I wiped. With it being Sun, I have to wait to call a doctor tomorrow and I really don't want to over worry but I don't want to lose the baby either

I know this is old, but ty for updating. I am going through the same thing. Found out I was pregnant 6 days before missed period. From the day I was supposed to get my period to now (5 weeks 4 days) I have been having brown spotting/discharge when I wipe. It happens every couple of days. I have been through a miscarriage, so of course I am nervous. I have an ultrasound in 5 days, but that feels like forever.
