Not Feeling Very Positive..

[Faithinpink]

Hi ladies, so I'm 5 weeks pregnant and 2 days ago started bleeding exactly like a period no extreme pain just what I would get with my period ...
Went to ED and did hcg levels and apparently they climbed in 5 days from 154 to 1041, went today again to get more bloods taken so am waiting for levels should know them later on this arvo . Got appt with OB tomorrow. So my question is , is it really possible to have a successful pregnancy even with bleeding ?? I have never bleed with any of my pregnancy and have never had a miscarriage
Everytime I go to toilet and see the blood I just think no way this cannot be Normal but have been told women do bleed during pregnancy and Is common .
I suppose I'm just scared I'm slowly losing the baby .. Anyone had a successful pregnancy and still got AF ??

Me!! With my DS3 it started as Braxton Hicks cramping. I knew something was wrong. I went to the bathroom and saw blood. It started as a light flow at first, but then I needed a pad. It lasted for 5 days and it started right when my period would have started. I had to wait a whole 10 days for my scan. It showed I had a SCH (subchorionic hemorrhage), which is very common in pregnancy.

An SCH is when the embryo implants on, or next to, a blood vessel in your uterus. It causes bleeding to occur and a scab (clot) develops that stops the blood flow. What most doctors don't tell you but this does make sense, the scab will fall off eventually, and you may see very light spotting again as it completely resolves. Had my OB not told me this, I would have totally freaked out 13 days later. The second time it was extremely light and only lasted a day. I didn't need even a panty liner, since it only was noticeable when I wiped.

I'm hoping and praying that this is what is going on with you and that this resolved quickly! Your HCG levels seem good.

Huge hugs!!

Ahh XX thank u for your reply , so there may still be hope for me then .
Yeah I started bleeding around the time AF would have been due, I keep saying to myself maybe I just needed to bleed bcos last week I thought I was going to explode with all my emotions and felt like af was coming but thought no way how can I if I'm pregnant..

Praying my hcg have gone up . Update when I know xx

Feel like I'm on a rollercoaster, levels came back at 1031...
So they have dropped by 10 in 48hours . Still bleeding and clots .Going to be a long night as I'm feeling so down and scared , suppose my OB will know best appt tomorrow

FaithinPink - I'm soooo sorry to hear you are going through this Hun. I wish there was something I could say that would give you some comfort, but I'm stuck for the words. I'd never had a miscarriage til last year and prior to that with my three healthy pregnancies that resulted in three healthy babies, I never experienced any bleeding. Yet I have heard of plenty of ladies that do have some bleeding and it turns out to be ok. I guess it doesn't look good if your numbers have dropped slightly. I'm sorry love. It's a rotten thing to have to go through. I'll be thinking of you and praying for you. Xxoo

Sorry Faithinpink It doesn't sound very promising if your levels have started dropping and you are bleeding. Take care xx.

yes it is and I had a full 5 day period with my 4th pregnancy and had a happy healthy 8 lb baby 9 months later. Did not have bleeding with any of my other 4 pregnancies.

Yes I'm sorry I didn't read this part when I replied, dropping betas is never what we want to see here. ((((Hugs))))
