Hi! I am 13 weeks 5 days pregnant. I had light spotting at 7 weeks. I went to the doctor seen baby on ultrasound everything looked fine. Now, I started light spotting (brown) no red blood with light cramping. I went into my OB's office for first trimester exam. Baby looked good during ultrasound with healthy heart beat. Doctor did a pelvic exam to make sure my cervix was closed. Left appointment few hours later I started spotting heavier. Two days later spotting is thick and dark dark brown. I see a specialist on Monday in 2 days... I'm very worried. I miscarried 7 months ago and remember it started out with light brown spotting.
I'm going through the same thing. Did you get a diagnosis?
Having the same issue only mine has been about a week long and I'm 26wks been to the er was given song and dance oh we checked you and for the baby's heart beat your fine go home but yet still bleeding worried very
Interesting that so many women go through similar things!
My bleeding started at 19 weeks and now I am 25 weeks. I've been bleeding on and off for about 6 weeks now! Sometimes just spotting, sometimes a bit more, and for 3 occasions it was a lot of bleeding. Each time I go to hospital to check up, everything is fine and they don't know why I bleed.
However, I have noticed the pattern when I bleed...
When I carried a heavy object
When I walked too long in a hot weather
When I had sex
When I did strenuous exercise (belly dance, pilates)
When I stand for a long time
When I had a late night
When I feel tired
Usually, my bleeding starts at night while I am sleeping after these activities.
So, as long as I avoid these, it seems all fine.
My midwife suggested to do more Kegel exercise to keep the uterus up high and not letting it fall too low. I find this very helpful too.
My intuition as to why I bleed is that my placenta which is placed right in front of my tummy has some sensitive capillary veins on its edge and if the blood circulation gets too much there, they burst out a bit. The blood has to come out from the uterus so it contracts mildly (sometimes I can feel it) and expels it outside. This is just my own theory which a doctor also thought can make sense.
Ladies, take it easy. Rest well, keep the exercise to gentle walking and Kegel exercise only, and believe that your body is doing its job and tell your baby and placenta to keep inside until full term.
It's important to talk to your baby and ask things!!!!

Hi, I am now 25 weeks and bleeding started at 24 weeks. Been in the hospital for 10 days now. Cervix closed, placenta attached but bleedingmore than I would with a period. My fluid level has gone from about 10.7 to 5. Baby seems to be doing great! Great movement and heart variation. I have had two ultrasounds since bring in the hospital, but nothing is showing up as to why I'm bleeding. I have only gone 24 hours with no bleeding. It's been bright red up until today. It's started to get darker. I'm Only to get up to use the toilet or shower, and I still manage to bleed. My hemaglobin level is border line needing iron supplement on top of my prenatal. This is scary to go through, if anyone has possible things to ask the drs or whatever, please share!
Glad I'm not alone in this. Talk about scary. I started having significant bleeding two weeks ago at 14 weeks but they thought it was just from sex. Both babies are good. Continued to bleed, went back in and my cervix was fine along with the babies. Two weeks later at 16 weeks I'm still spotting brown, but all looks good. Doctor says my cervix is fine and babies are fine. She said she has no idea why this is happening but they'll do everything they can to save the pregnancy. It's confusing to hear, all is fine, yet do everything we can to save the pregnancy within one conversation. This thread is the only thing I have seen on the internet about this. Makes me feel better to see other women bleeding but not losing their babies. :)
I am now 13 weeks with my 1st pregnancy and have no idea why I'm bleeding. I saw the doctor twice this week, on Monday we heard the heartbeat and he said it was strong. On Thursday we did and ultrasound and the baby was healthy, but they said I had some blood on my cervix but they couldn't tell where it was coming from. Friday night I called the incall doctor and he just said based on the information from this week it doesn't sound like I am having a miscarriage but it is totally a waiting game, but there's really nothing that can be done to stop it if it's coming or cause it if it's not. If anyone carried their baby full term please let us know because that will be very reassuring
I am 15 weeks pregnant and have 2 kids already, I have been in hospital for heavy bleeding twice, 12 week and then 14 , every time they do a routine ultrasound and last time they saw some blood in uterus that they don't know where it's coming from, a week passed and i went for a check up ultrasound, baby is great and healthy but even though I am not bleeding when I pee I see some sort of a string mucus like own blood color , no heavy bleeding but I was told that there is still some blood in uterus that could either be absorbed by body naturally or come out , they have no idea what is causing it but although I am happy baby is good and it's not effecting it still conce. Anyone been thru this?
Isn't that insane.., I'm 18 weeks with my 4th child.. have had problems since I was about 8 weeks, the er did my first ultrasound and told me I had a single right ovarian cyst and subchorionic hemorrhage. So i was limited on alot of things I could do but the baby was healthy. The bleeding then was pretty lite and ended in about a week. then in July I began to bleed again lightly and then it quickly went to heavy and constant.. at 15 weeks I went to a different hospital and again they did an ultrasound said the baby's heartbeat was healthy and if I was miscarrying there was no way to stop it or tell at the moment come back for blood work. (Needless to say I did not return to that hospital) .. it is now August and I'm 18weeks, been to 3 hospitals, had 4 ultrasounds and have been bleeding heavily with over 2inch size clots for almost 3 weeks, with extreme cramping and more than iv ever bled in my life.. with no explanation why! The problems back in may at my 8 week mark had disappeared completely.. the doctors are "baffled" at the e.r they know were or why the blood is coming.. I go to my first new O.b apt. In 4 days wish me luck for an explanation and healthy delivery!
I wonder how many have had health babies since this post and most of the comments are from a year ago. I'm carrying my 4th and at 11 weeks I woke up with so much blood and fluid I thought I was miscarrying and was terrified. Never had any previous complications but the ER told me it was a bladder infection and the baby was fine. I took the antibiotics and the bleeding slowed down but I kept spotting every few days. The spotting began to be heavier so I asked my Dr if I had another infection they said no. Then today at 14 weeks i woke up with my panties and pajamas covered in blood. Went back to the ER they didnt find anything and baby was fine, placenta normal, etc. I am sooo freaked out. I've been blessed with all healthy babies and normal pregnancies and it's even more terrifying that they dont know why this is happening.They asked if I been having sex but my husband and I are having problems and haven't had sex in months. Just hoping I make it full term with a health baby them I'm pretty much done having babies.
Ok I'm not a doctor but many times women are pregnant with multiples twins in my case and my daughters case and one does not develope. Even though one doesn't develop the is still 2 separate amniotic sacs. In both of our cases the empty sac eventually broke causing the bleeding. My daughter is going through this currently she is 19 wks. I went through it 20 yrs ago with my son, my water did break early in the amniotic sac my son was in around 20 wks but the doctor couldn't tell until 27 weeks. I had a severe infection by that time. I was hospitalized and 2 wks later at 29 wks my son was born at 2 pounds and 14 ounces. He's now 20 and and perfectly healthy.

Hi, how did you get on with your pregnancy? My partner is pregnant with twins and also has had a bleed at 24 weeks. Between a table and a tea spoon amount. Nothing for the past 3 days. Been scanned twice and nothing found.
At This Point I Am Also So Worried And Stressed. I have done the same Belle ding with all tests perfect. I am only 12 weeks but now on bedrest with no answer. So scared with a long way to go. I hope you all have delivered healthy babies by now.
I also replied to this below. I think there's a pattern that she feels Xperia cell his but no doctors have answers. I don't even have a uti. I have a retroverted uterus. It just means mine points backwards. But Ithe ouldnt be causing this. I am scared as well with no answers
