I've been to the ER 3 times and I'm 9 weeks . I get an ultrasound every week at the ER and even though they say every thing is ok they still give me paperwork for a threatened miscarriage. . I pray daily and i always see growth each ultrasound so I'm always happy at the end of each visit. Just try not to stress and have faith in God's plan for u and the baby. Everything will be ok.
scared and confused
I found out yesterday that I'm pregnant but very very early (estimated between 1-3 weeks) and the doctors frightened me. I went to the wrong last night because I was cramping and had a little pink on the toilet paper. When I got to the doctor, I had like period spotting for about an hour but it wasn't heavy. And it stopped and so did the cramping. I'm haven't cramped since, but they said because of the bleeding and my past molar pregnancy my whole pregnancy will be high risk. They said as of right now because of the spotting that they're gonna say that's it's a threatened miscarriage. Should I be concerned? I'm seriously scared for me and my child. Any advice or personal story would help. Thank you so much.

Weird that a doctor would count by conception instead of lmp. Sounds like you definitely need a second opinion. No chance it was implantation bleeding that early? I had some bleeding at 9 weeks and doc called it a "threatened miscarriage" but followed that up by saying that that term could mean anything from "it could actually happen, bed rest etc" to "absolutely nothing".

I should note that I found out at 3.5 weeks (so about 1.5 gestational weeks) because I had spotting and never had that in between periods before so I tested. Turns out it was implantation bleeding.
But should I be concerned

Mrs.Steward thank you so much for the advice
Mr
I recently miscarried in july of this year and now am preg again so anytime I see blood I go straight to the ER so I feel ur worry but the less you worry the better
Mr
I had all brown spotting around 5 wks and at 8 wks I had brown/red flakey looking blood that came out but it all stopped in about a week and was around the time id expect my regular period. as long as its not enough to soak a pad id say ur ok
Ok. You can't be 1 week pregnant. You're further along than that. Second if you levels are only 41 and you've had bleeding, he's right to call it a threatened miscarriage. You need to call your OB and tell them what happened. They should draw more blood and examine you. I had a miscarriage at 5 weeks in August and my levels went from 54 to 8 in 3 days. Call your doctor and go in!

That what I did. I called and told them I was in the ER and they had me come in right then. Best of luck to you.

They gave me a referral since no one is open today. I call tomorrow and set up my appointment
