bleeding early pregnancy

hello all you kind people that have helped me before, (2ww was over on monday 3rd may with BFP) I have been bleeding and am still bleeding but have to wait till next wed before they can look at "things" and US as its too early, my levels of hcg are rising but this breakthrough/hormonal bleeding is really making me anxious, i've been told to rest which you can do to a certain point, is anyone else having bleeding problems, or did have bleeding problems and what advice were you given.I 've read loads on these sites that some women bleed for 3 mths, some all way through pregnancy but i'm so scared of a mc.xx

Yes. it did stop and start. I had a subchorionic hematoma which is like a blood clot and it just has to heal by itself. If that is what is causing your bleeding you need to try and take it easy so it can repair itself.

Yes, many of my friends bled lightly in the first trimester. But you should see your doctor asap to make sure its okay. Rest and take it easy...

I unfortunatly had a miscarriage after starting to bleed 3 days before my first u/s. Mine was from Ashermans though so I'm sure you do not have that to worry about. I pray this is not the case with you, but wanted to share my experience.  I was using a mini pad a day.  I will be praying for you to see that little bean on your ultrasound!!!  Hang in there I am sure everything is just fine.
SSBD and Tons of prayers!!

thank you for that, my friend said she bled for 3 months , i'm using about 1-2 pads a day, does that sound really bad, my gp said you will notice heavier bleeding after you've been moving around, walking or doing stuff and that to me is tue, had to go into town today , walked up high street, picked alfie up from nursery, did his lunch, then could feel it "coming out of me"-sorry to put it like this. now got feet up and its subsided again.did yours stop and start? xx

I bled from 7-17 weeks with my son. He is now 18 months old. Just try and rest as much as you can.

Thank you for that , I am taking it easy and my clinic said today to rest for 48 hrs before resuming normal activities.my husband is off work tomorrow so I will really do this. Keep being told differnt things about the bleeding that it could still be implantation, hormonal or erosion of cervix or even small polyp! just have to relax and hope it subsides.x

Try to stay calm and positive. Relax and rest! Stay in bed, take naps, DONT do houswork suchas vacuum, dont reach above your head, dont lift anything, dont have intercourse, etc. These are all things I was told. We are all pulling for you and you are in my prayers.
