Q: Spotting at 6 weeks

HI, I am 5 to 6 weeks pregnant. I had spotting on Saturday night and then another spotting on sunday I had an ultrasound today monday.
I have had mild period like pain. Im on blood thinners.
the ultra sound showed the sack and yoke but I looked more like 5 weeks not 6 and there was no heartbeat as it was too early. I get my blood results tomorrow. Anyway has this happened to anyone else out there? I'm scared im miscarrying

My doctor told me that unless i had spotting associated with severe cramping it was fine. I spotted in all of my pregnancies. I had late term losses for other reasons though. I'm now 28+ weeks pregnant with a girl. I know it hard not to worry but try to relax cramping is actually normal in early pregnancy as long as it's not severe. If it was to get worse than period like and heavy bleeding i would get seen butt your levels doubled or more than so i would breathe a little if i were you :-) good luck

I know how you feel. When i was 5 weeks i went to the bathroom only to find blood, a lot of blood. I freaked out and rushed to the ER. Baby turned out to be fine and i am now 8.4 weeks. They still don't know where it came from, but it didn'kt cause any issues. I hope this helps a little, stay clam and remain positive. Oh and rest as much as possible. Good luck to you and your little baby.

Just try to remain calm. I spotted brown blood off and on from week 6-7. No heartbeat at 5 weeks but at 6 weeks 2 days there was a strong heartbeat! They said I had bruising around my placenta ( which caused the spotting) and that baby was fine! I have not spotted in over a week. Just take it easy.. no heavy lifting and try to relax. I agree that you should not research miscarriages online. Just wait to hear from your doctor and pray. I' hope all is well! Keep us updated!
