    I'm 19. I'm 5 weeks 6 days pregnant and started experiencing period like cramps yesterday and brown spotting. Today, I started bleeding. I got in an emergency visit today w/ my obgyn. At first he said it was a complete miscarriage then he did an ultrasound and said he found more than he expected. The yolk sac actually grew which wasn't there in my first ultrasound. He then said it could be a normal pregnancy but he was calling it a threatened miscarriage and that all the blood could just be from the wall. I asked him if he had seen woman w/ this much blood and still have a normal pregnancy. He said yes and more blood actually. BUt he's also seen it the other way. I just got up from nap and passed a blood clot almost the size of a small golf ball. Not having severe cramps. Has this happened to anyone? If so, wh

Thank you I pray the same

When I was just spotting and light bleeding I misscarried. When I was bleeding extrememly bad the pregnancy continued. It can go either way. The fact that you saw more development is a good thing but the fact that you are passing large clots is worrisome.

wow, that is so scary for anyone to go through. I am so sorry this is happening to you. Basically its like Alaysha said, its 50/50 & you just have to wait it out which I am sure is hard to do when you are completely worried about your baby.
Good luck & I pray all goes well for you & your baby! ♥

Oh I'm sorry. So you miscarried your first one? Not the bleeding one?

Thank you very much. Glad your pregnancies came out on the flipside

Honestly it can go 50-50 either way. I was spotting and slight cramping with my first pregnancy got an ultrasound at 6w2d which showed a baby and a heartbeat. Went and got another ultrasound 3 weeks later and baby was only 6w4d and had no heartbeat. My next pregnancy I started bleeding at 5 weeks worse than a period and bright red with clots and everything. That continued for 5 weeks and then one day it just stopped. I was never put on bedrest but i was on pelvic rest and told not to have sex until i had not bled or spotted for 1 whole week. My daughter is now 3 1/2. Anytime you bleed in pregnancy it is called a threatened miscarriage. The only thing you can do is wait it out and see what happens.
