Hi Moms,
I am 7 weeks pregnant with my third baby and I have been experiencing spotting for about 85% of the time that I've been pregnant. Some days its light and others it seems to be a bit heavy. I have never miscarried before but I'm starting to get a bit concerned. Today when I went to the restroom I could feel it dripping out of me, but It actually wasn't much just a few drops. The blood is usually dark, but today it was actually pale pinkish. However, tonight it has returned back to dark. I wear a liner everyday just to try to keep an eye on how much it is and there is rarely anything on the liner. I only see it when I wipe. I have had no cramping or back pain. But I do have severe bloating and gas and nausea. I have my first ob appointment on Tuesday morning. Has anyone experienced this?
I had spotting while pregnant with both my kids at 6-7 weeks, but it stopped after a week or two and then everything was fine. I was directed to take it easy, drink plenty of fluids, and keep my feet up. Best wishes.
I spotted with my son.
Started off dark and a about the size of a quarter, then got less and less. This happened 2x. At 7 weeks and 12 weeks.
At the time, my doctor told me that I could be having a full blown period, and the baby could be fine. In the same boat, I could be fine and miscarry the next day.
The point was, that there's nothing you can do about it.
Statistics show that once you see a heartbeat on an ultrasounnd, your chances of miscarriage decreased by 95%.
Hang in there mama. If it's been the whole time and there doesn't seem to be an increase in bleeding or brightness going on, chances are that things are fine.
I had gone through this with both of my pregnancies and they both turned out to be just fine. I hope by now you have gone to your appt and everything is fine. When I experienced spotting I informed my Dr. who called M. in for a sonogram just to be safe. My spotting,though,was more of a brownish color. Please let us know how your appt. goes. I know it's scary. Good luck,Hun.
I was 7 weeks and that happened to me and I lost the baby. I did that again with my last child went to the DR. everything was ok he said rest if it is meant to be it will. Just try to rest and try not to stress but honestly if it were me I would go to the Dr. right away.
i would go to the Dr right away or urgent care . I lost 7 pregnancies and seeing blood is never a good sign . i had one Ectopic pregnancy and at 8 weeks it burst inside me and i almost lost my life that time .
so call your Dr tomorrow morning and let him do ultrasound to make sure everything is okay . I do hope that every thing is okay with and with the baby . keep us posted please .
I would go to doctor asap and make sure things are ok.
I have been through this three times and in each case I miscarried. I had spotting with the first pregnancy, went to the ER and had one of those internal sonograms which was inconlusive. That one miscarried at 10 weeks. The 2nd time I had heard the heartbeat at 13 weeks and lost it at 16 weeks. In both cases I did not know the baby had died until it was on its way out. In the 3rd case I had a tubal pregnancy which required another trip to the ER, then surgery and the loss of a tube.
I was eventually put on heavy doses of progesterone (Prometrium) and those pregnancies survived.
I wish you the best...

Yes! I had spotting with two of my three full term pregnancies. With baby #1, I spotted until I was about 11 weeks along. With baby #2, I spotted until about 9 weeks. My OB gave me sonograms with each pregnancy for reassurance that the spotting was nothing to be concerned about.
Congrats on baby #3! I hope all goes well.
I to would bleed when I was about seven weeks pregnant. The doctor said light bleeding is normal, but I would see my doc right away or go to urgent care. Just to be on the safe side.
I did at 6 months and it turned out to be nothing. However, you need to be checked and have the Doctor tell you if there is a problem. Take your liner with you so that they can look at it - this is what my Doctor told me.
I know that one can go onto a normal pregnancy with bleeding, but with my first loss, (ectopic) I spotted for 10 days before my pain came and then I had emergency surgery. Both other times, I spotted for a day and then miscarried.
My sister though, had spotting with her 3rd child and now my niece is almost 5, so it's hard to say.
