Am i miscarrying?

[scousechick]

I've started bleeding today, not very heavy but it is red blood! I'm about 6 weeks pregnant and i've had positive and negative hpts so now i'm wondering if i'm miscarrying or if this is normal to have

I'm not having any cramps just blood its really strange as i have had micarriages before and i was in a lot of pain.

Have to go back to the hospital for a scan tomorrow as they only have the clinic between 9am and 12pm each day.

Well i went back for my scan today and nothing was on the screen so it looks like i miscarried. I am 6 weeks from last period but conception is only 4 weeks so they said maybe i was just to early to show but it sounds like i am haviing a miscarriage. Had some blood work done so have to phone for the results tmw and that will determine if i am or not as if my hcg is still up then they will test again to make sure it doesn't go down and that i'm still pregnant and not having an etopic (don't think i am having etopic). This is such a rollercoaster of feelings as i don't know whether to cry or keep positive. I keep checking to see if i have passed any clots but still nothing so i hope this is a good sign!

Thank you... I have read that a lot of women bleed. that is even what the doc told me.. he said treat your self like you are still pregnant and will test in 2 weeks...

I have definitely thought about going to ER.. I just hate going to our ER.. you wait for like 4-6 hours and  I have 3 kids at home and just dont' have the time to wait that long youknow what I mean ?  I am definitely considering going to like a walk in clinic or something and just tell them the situation and see if they will order blood work..  

thanks again for the reassurance~ =)

awww, well maybe it will reassure you that a lot of women have their periods during pregnancy, so that could be it as well. There is always the option of going to the ER just to get tested. I hope everything works out for you!

well some of those posts reassured me and some of them just made me realize that I am not going to know a darn thing until my week appointment at the gyno.. I had posted something a little while ago (a few times) about possible miscarriage.. . I bled for 4 days a little heavy at first with a few clots, then it tapered down to nothing, like a brown discharge.. no pain at all.. that was a week ago, now I am having lower back pain again.. still nauseous I go in week from today to see if my HCG dropped or not.. I keep posting in hopes that somebody will reassure me but apparently everybody is extremely different and these posts are pointless for me.. oh well I was trying to get some reassurance.. guess I will be patient...

Minor back pain is 100% normal in pregnancy, yes it is a symptom of m/c but not always. I have constant backpains and backaches and my babies are fine, I am also 6w.
When i had my first m/c i didnt cramp, and i didnt spot. I was sitting on the couch, got up to use the bathroom and it was like out of a horror movie.

Everyones body is different, this includes how each persons body handles a m/c and so forth. Because you are bleeding I would go see a doc or to the ER. BUT because you are only 6 weeks they will prolly make you just go back home. They can do a u/s to make sure all is well, but most of the time, atleast where i am from, if you come in bleeding at any gestation under 6 months, they send you home, and make you have an app. with a reg doc.

I hope all goes well, and don't panic until you see a doc.

I REALLY WISH YOU THE BEST. WITH MY FIRST M/C I HAD LOWER BACK PAIN THAT WENT DOWN MY BUTT AT TIMES. BUT SOME WOMEN HAVE BACK PAIN IN PREGNANCY. ALOTHOUGH ITS REALLY NOT THAT COMMON FROM WHAT I HAVE HEARD. RIGHT NOW IM JUST SPOTTING ONLY WHEN I USE THE RESTROOM. STILL NO CRAMPING BUT I KNOW THEY HEAVY BLEEDING WILL START ANYTIME. YOU NEED TO SEE A DR. ASAP. IM SERIOUS...IT MAY BE NOTHING BUT FROM MY EXPERIENCE IT SOUNDS LIKE MY SYMPTOMS I HAD WHEN I M/C. THE FIRST TIME AND THIS TIME. LET ME KNOW WHAT HAPPENS.
