I assume this is something that started fairly recently, so the accumulation time for that amount of blood definitely warrants being looked at. She needs an ultrasound done to see if they cause pinpoint the bleeding, or if there is a heartbeat. I would tell her to go to the ER and get checked out.

She said no cramping yet but enough blood to fill up a pad

Personally, I've never heard of this. Your physical size doesn't make you bleed from uterine stretches. Blood clots while pregnant are not normal, and she needs to be seen by a doctor very soon - it is not always a sign of miscarriage, but it can indicate one. Did they mention if she was cramping at all, or how heavy the flow is?

no. If its a few drops maybe but not. Clots.. she needs to go to er or dr because your uterus stretching shouldn't cause that much blood. If she is cramping also then she should deffinately be seen right away to be certain the baby is ok.
