Ask Me Help Desk - Almost 6 weeks and concerned.

Almost 6 weeks and concerned.

Hello I am almost 6 weeks pregnant.. and for the past 2 days I have been bleeding like it was heavy last night but got better and now it is very light.. like I don't even really c anything when I wipe... I had mild cramps on and off.. but not really anymore.. could this be a problem I have my appt.. with my doctor next week... and I don't no what could be going wrong... has anyone had this and then ended up caring to term and having a healthy child... please and thank you I need all the help I can get... I can not stand to have another miscarriage especially 3 in one year... :confused: :( :confused:

I had bleeding on and off to the point where I thought I was miscarrying with my first pregnancy... I was told it happens sometimes and not to worry... My son had some problems at birth (cord around neck/jaundice), but was generally a healthy almost 9 pound baby boy...

I would most definitely call the doctor before your appt if you are concerned... explain your symptoms thoroughly and see what they think about coming in before your appt to get examined...

Make sure you mention to them if they are not already familiar that you've already miscarried twice in a year's time... there could be a solution to this problem that only your doc would know if fully informed...

Good luck... and congratulations

Were your miscarriages early in the pregnancies? Did they do any sort of blood work? Sometimes they won't do any unless there have been a few miscarriages.
As RedneckMama said, it is not uncommon to have some bleeding early on, and mild cramping as well, but you certainly want to let your doctor know. With your history, they may do a check on some hormone levels, such as progesterone, to see if that is an issue to be on the safe side. If it is subsiding, odds are all is well, but the peace of mind of letting your doctor know is worth the phone call and an earlier check.

Thankx this means so much to me seeing as how u had the same experience that I am having... = ):) :D

OK well now it is spotting so light I can't c it like a pink and brown and there is no cramping.. so I am going to take a HPT test tomorrow morning to c if I am still OK... ::confused

Have you contacted your doctor? If not, I suggest you do so immediately. HCG will not lower that quickly if you miscarried again. With your history you do not need to sit around and wait, but get medical attention ASAP.

Yah I no I am going to c my doctor on thusday... I hope the baby will be OK...

With your history I think you will be waiting too long by going on Thursday. You have a history of spontanious abortions (miscarriages), and Thursday could be too late.

Well I no its to far... but I live far from my doctor and the earliest I can get in is Thursday.. I I just went to the bathroom and there is nothing on the pad.. I am happy.. I hope everything is OK... it has only been not even 2 an a half almost 3 days...
