im 7 weeks pregnant and im bleeding.

[imgonnabeamommy111608]

im 7 weeks pregnant, and i've been bleeding for a week now. its very scary. the day after i started bleeding, i called the doctor and they saw me the same day. when i went, i got my blood taken, i got an u/s and i heard my baby's heartbeat(which is the most amazing sound ever). the doctor also said its normal to bleed lightly. but is it normal to bleed lightly for over a week? my friend is 6 months pregnant now, and she told me when she was two months pregnant she had started bleeding, and it lasted as long as her period should. i dont know. i just want someone to talk to about this, because the wait sucks, and i really dont have anyone to talk to about this. please give me some different advice, something that i havent heard before!

I am so sorry for your loss.  Sometimes I respond to these posts and sometimes I don't because there just are no words.  I wish I could say something to help ease the pain.

I will say though that this forum is a wonderful support with lots of wonderful ladies and we are all here to listen anytime you need to vent.

I will keep you in my prayers......

EVERY WOMAN who has had a m/c or lost a baby feels like that.  I can assure u. I had a m/c 11/07 & when i found out I am preg again, the thought of having another m/c jus would not get out my head. I had to have a D&C though. Anyway, you jus have to have faith that everything will be ok the next time around. ~Good Luck~

I am so sorry for everything you have been through. You need to allow yourself sometime to grieve and get yourself strong emotionally and physically. Alot of women feel like that after they have a miscarriage and when they get pregnant again they are scared. You need to just give it time. My thoughts and prayers are with you . Good Luck in what ever you decide.

i had to go to the er today cause the baby passed by itself. was there for about 6 hours. they wanted to make sure  everything passed and my cervix closed by itself, if not i woud have had to get the surgery. my body did what it was supposed to and passed everything, and luckily my cervix closed and i didnt need to get the D&C. it was the most horrible thing i've ever experienced though.. all the blood, pain and tissue coming out and then the baby coming out in its sac...(sorry if its too much info, but i just have to get this whole thing out of me instead of keeping it bottled inside)i can see the baby. and its tiny little hands and feet. and eyes. so much has happened in the past two days.. and im emotionally drained by all of this i cant even cry anymore. but for some reson when i saw the baby, it kinda made me feel better. which to me is weird, but it answered some of my questions, like how big was it?, was it developing to fast?, etc. well after all that has happened, its not over yet. i have to go to the doctors every two days to get blood drawn to make sure the pregnancy hormone levels go back to zero.  idk. i just wanted to update everyone. thank you for listening.
