miscairrage then bright red bleeding--extreme pain

[lcva51]

About a week and a half to two weeks ago I began bleeding, having horrible cramps, and then miscarried after three or four days.  I was less than a month pregnant so it was only a very small sac. Now I'm still bleeding very heavily and I'm worried because it's still bright red and very painful. Could I have torn something inside and be bleeding from that? This has to be new blood based on the color right, and it's a lot of blood. I'm changing pads every half to one hour, even at night.

Hi! This past week (on Wednesday) I started bleeding. Naturally was scared to death. I had no bleeding with my first child. I have taken several positive pregnancy test at home, and one at the doctor...BUT after bleeding my over the counter test said negative. I hadn't really started to feel real pregnant anyway, I was only 6 1/2 weeks pregnant so I can't say if I have lost any symptoms. Has anyone experienced a false negative after bleeding?!? My bleeding just didn't seem heavy enough to be a miscarriage?

I would call your dr if you are changing pads that often....to me that's excessive.

I had 3 m/c this year...the first 2 natural at 5.5-6 weeks and I bled...heavily...pouring out of me but that was only for about 12-24 hours...then normal period bleeding for 2-3 days, 4 max.

Just to be safe....you should call.

GOD BLESS YOU...I'M SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.

I bled like that when I had my miscarriage back in May. I bled really heavily for about 3 weeks. I would call your doctor and see what he thinks. Bleeding so much, you could become anemic really easily.
