So I am 21, and I'm 6 weeks 4 days along in my pregnancy. At about 4 weeks I started spotting, especially after intercourse. Then I started lightly bleeding, not even enough to get on a pad. I would usually wipe it away after going to the bathroom. I pared some on looking tissue and my bleeding stopped. I took some pregnancy tests and they say I'm still pregnant. I started bleeding again a couple days ago and it is already slowing again. Has any one had anything like this happen and still go on to have a healthy baby? I could really use some good news.

Could you please clarify this part of your post as I have no idea what you mean.

Bleeding can happen throughout pregnancy and go full term, but any bleeding you experience during pregnancy should be discussed with your doctor immediately. We can't diagnose online, so there's no way for us to tell you what's going on. You'll need to see your doctor, who knows your medical history, and can run tests to determine what's causing the bleeding.

Good luck.

Sorry about that I meant to say I passed some odd looking pink tissue. I wish I could go to a doctor but I have no money, my husband drained the account and wants to divorce me for another woman. So I have very few options. Thank you I appreciate it.

This is going to be harsh, but it's something you have to consider. You cannot have a baby without medical care, unless you want to bring a child into this world that may have many issues. You need to see your doctor monthly while pregnant, weekly in your last month of pregnancy. If you have no money to see your doctor when you're having an issue that requires a doctors care, how are you going to afford the pregnancy, much less afford to raise this child once it's born?

The average cost to deliver a child in the hospital in the US is $12,000, and that's if the delivery is normal and everything is okay. If there are complications, which there are likely to be if you don't receive medical care during your pregnancy, the cost goes up astronomically.

Unless you find a way to afford medical care, I don't see how you'll afford to have this child, much less keep it.

Is this your husbands child? If so, he's also responsible for the cost you'll incur during your pregnancy. Does he know about this child?

Yes, I know. I've considered all of those things. I'm trying to get on Medicaid. Yes it's my husband child and he does know about it. His mom is a mid wife and she isn't happy with him, so she is my mid wife, and trying help me as much as she can. My family I know will help me. It's just right now I ask very scared about what is happening. I'm going to keep my baby. I'm just not sure what is going on. I'm still having symptoms and the tests say I'm pregnant.

I'm going to send your question to a friend of mine, he just finished med school. When it comes to medical questions I trust him completely.

The thing is, I know what he's going to say. There are many possibilities that could be causing this bleeding. It could be a low lying placenta, it could be an impending miscarriage (you will test positive on a pregnancy test for weeks after a miscarriage as the hcg hormone is still in your body), it could be a tubal pregnancy, it could be nothing, it could be something else I haven't mentioned as there are many possibilities. There's no way to know without testing, which would require you seeing a doctor.

So I can ask him, but I doubt he'll be able to give you any further help, or offer any advice I haven't already offered.

Really, your only option is to see a doctor. Is there anyone that would give or lend you the money to get this checked? Anyone at all? You really need to see a doctor about this. I can't stress that enough. I really wish I could give you an answer, but it's really not possible.

Ok, thank you very much. I appreciate you sending it to your friend, that would be helpful. I'm really grateful for all your help and advice. I will talk to my family about it and see what we can do for sure. Maybe there is a way to pool money together. Thanks again.

My friend lives in the US, and I'm in Canada. I sent him a skype message, but it may be days before he responds. Please check back often for a reply.

I can't stress enough that seeing your doctor really is your only option. Like I said, I doubt my friend will be able to give you a diagnosis, only possibilities, which won't help.

Ok, I will see what I can do about getting in to a doctor. I'll also make sure to check back often. Thank you so much for you're help its greatly appreciated.
