Signs and what to look for if having a miscarriage

Hi, i just want to know what I would be looking for if I have has a miscarriage. I am supposed to be 12 weeks pregnant on today.  I say suppose to b/c i'm not sure if i have had a miscarriage.  I have had some bleeding, but no pain or cramping.  At first the bleeding was light then kind of dark then back light.  I had some clots but i don't know what to look for as a sign of a micarriage.  I've heard that they are mostly painful and there is one big clot/block of blood, but I just don't know. This is my first pregnancy and i am just worrying b/c I want erverything to be alright.  Please, Please help me!

I am 11 weeks and I'm not getting any bigger AT ALL :( I'm worried somethings wrong. I have some very mild cramps sometimes. nothing serious. not even any bleeding. but I still have a feeling I had a miscarriage.

I just had a baby almost five months ago. My period returned at my regular time after two months. But now after almos five months I am bleeding very very badly. I have been bleefing for about two weeks. Could I be having a miscarriage this soon? Or is my body still adjusting?

Hi,just wanted to give some of you peice of mind if i can....I currently have 2 children and every pregnancy is different!My first was a normal pregnancy,my 2nd I had heavy bleeding that started at 3mths and continued throughout the whole pregnancy!! Intially i thought i had misscaried but nope i have a baby boy and was not pleased i had my period through the pregnancy haha I am current pregnant with my 3rd child and am 3mths along and low and behold im having the same annoying pink/brown watery bleeding!Lucky for me i have been through this before so am confident it is the same as the last pregnancy,I will say it is always best to see your doctor for peice of mind and dont beleive anyone who tells you woman dont get their periods during preganancy because im proof that they do and theres no known cause for it.I will also say if you have bleeding thats no painful dont be overly alarmed but do see a doc also cramps followed by blood is NOT a good sign....so good luck ladies I hope your pregnancy's go full term
