I'm 7 weeks today, and I'm bleeding. It's red, it's not very heavy (but definitely not spotting) and there is no pain. I would appreciate any prayers at this point, if you can offer them.

I had that, it was a bleed from a sch (they think) because they never really found a good reason. It was about 7 weeks, was really heavy and red with no cramping.
I'd get checked out regardless. There is hope, though!!

I had that at seven weeks with my youngest. Started out a little but got heavy enough that I thought I was miscarrying. Because I'd already had a m/c I didn't do anything like lay down or anything, I had a baby to take care of and couldn't just stop everything. It was bright red and everything, but I've got a healthy little boy right here. :) Good luck to you.

Thanks for the thoughts, well wishes, and encouraging stories. I have mixed news.

The bleeding is still going. But, I'm not cramping, There have only been one or two clumps, and I haven't even filled a pad yet. I generally speaking have notoriously light periods, and it looks and feels like my normal period. Certainly it doesn't compare to what I'd expect for a miscarriage at 7 weeks, and I honestly believe I'm not miscarrying. My midwife told me to use some wild yam cream, which I am, and I plan on calling the OB on Monday to get an ultrasound.

I'm moving tomorrow, and planning on letting my friends move for me :)

Just last Tuesday I had some bleeding.... at 6w, 1d. It was bright red at first with like a 3 inch circle on my pants, (i thought for sure it was another m/c) then light brown spotting (only when i wiped) but went to the doc the next day, had the appt. anyway, and at 6w, 2d, there was a little hb in the corner. the doc said the pregnancy is detaching from the uterine wall, but from that point on, i have had no more bleeding or spotting, so i guess thats good, right? he also said that theres a really good chance this could turn into a normal healthy pregnancy, I will be 7 weeks tomorrow

so i am right there with you ashley in needing them stickey vibes. BTW, :Hug to you. What is wild yam cream, and whats it supposed to do?

Ashley keep your feet up as much as possible today :) How weird, I moved into my new house when I was about 6/7 weeks pregnant with dc1 :lol

I was thinking about you a lot today. Hope you're doing okay.

Thanks for the wellwishes! The bleeding is still there, but it seems to be getting lighter. Im also not in any pain whatsoever, and I have my full range of pregnancy symptoms. The move went well, and I did very little lifting. I love my friends.

I guess wild yam cream is supposed to help with your progesterone, but it's rather expensive ($20ish a jar).

I'm glad to hear it's slowing. :) I just found out that my aunt bled regularly throughout both her pregnancies, just like she got her period. But she's got two healthy adult boys now. :hug

'Course it must have sucked monkey fur to get her period WHILE she was pregnant. Blech. It's supposed to be a period vacation! :laugh:

Ashley and HopingForSomeBBDust, I wish you both well. I have heard of lots of women who bled and went on to healthy pregnancies.
