Katie, so sorry to hear this. Did they do any bloodwork to see if your levels were rising? Break through bleeding can happen. I bled a little w my son for a day and spotted for a couple after and everything was fine. Try to stay calm! Stressing can be very bad for you and baby. Please keep us updated

Thanks for replying :) They didn't actually. Pretty weird. They were trying to sound positive about it all but it's just so upsetting. The midwife I phoned said if I didn't have cramps that was fairly positive but Ive not got high hopes x

Katie, keep those high hopes!! Stay positive for your own sanity! im really surprised they didnt check your levels. But then again break through bleeding can be common. I vaguely remember that my dr wasnt to worried about my bleeding either. But we did bloodwork to make sure. Hang in there honey!

Katie : I bled throughout most of my last pregnancy. I had cramping on and off. I would push for lab work and an early ultrasound. I went on to deliver a healthy baby girl. My prayers are with you. Hugs and try to advocate for yourself as best as you can.

Afm: I am just waiting for AF to show. I am 12 dpo and still getting negative hpt's.

Thank you :) can I just ask if it's not too much info...what was the bleeding like? X

It was heavy clots and then would go light pink to brown. It usually happened when my husband and I made love or I did too much. Ultrasound was normal and so was labs. They never really understood why except for maybe activities or sex causing it.

That's really helpful, thanks. My OH and I made love yesterday and the bleeding began after that. Holding out a little hope! Thank you!xx

Mine was about the same as Cronins but only happened once. I was put on pevic rest ( no sexual activity) and level 2 bed rest n stayed that way on and off my entire pregnancy.

Katie : how are you doing this morning? Are you still bleeding? Hoping all is well. My prayers are with you.
