first time pregnant and spotting =(

[worrier24]

I am so scared I am only 6 weeks and 4 days (4 weeks post conception), I passed out during the weekend and have since spotted a good spotting everyday, its not a huge amount about a table spoon of blood once to twice a day for the last 3 days , ive been to a&e as the fainting worried my partner and he wanted to make sure I am ok- they did a scan but couldnt see anything just that my uterus was enlarged and thats about it- I am just scared baby is not ok or starting to escape (mc) and have light cramps -with lower back pain- but dont know if its really light cause I am so use to terrible periods , I think its light- I dont know what to do I have an intense job and called in sick today - as I am just feeling so nauseous and tired and so stressed even though - I am trying hard not to stress cause I know its bad for baby- =(

Sorry to hear you are in this situation. That early they might not see the baby yet.

Ive had this twice. The first time I bled on and off throughout whole pregnancy and I had a lovely healthy boy. The second time I had an ectopic pregnancy. You need blood tests to check hcg and progesterone levels. You have bloods tested every second day and the results indicate whether it's a viable pregnancy or not. Good luck!

Thankyou very much for ur reply =) I really hope its all ok - my gp booked another scan for me today because he says a&e should of done a transvaginal scan as the belly ultrasound wouldnt detect anything this early- but the scan ppl hasnt rung me yet- as the gp said they would- I am just going to try and relax - and keep my food in me - feeling so sick - vomiting is not fun- =(

Ah, you definitely need the internal scan. You may not even see much on an internal scan until 7 weeks. Good luck and keep me posted x

They did a scan and found a little heartbeat - I felt soo blessed- so thankful baby is ok- I just have to rest and keep myself still-God is so good - I am very thankful - now just have to relax and keep myself still till next week - I am really struggeling to eat and drink everything makes me feel so sick - dnt know how I am going to go back to work when I feel this horrible- no one told me pregnancy is full of so many things first u worry then the toilet becomes ur best friend then all ypu can do is lay very still and try not to wrech and vomit =( I dnt mind feeling this yuck as long as baby is ok but I am scared of work - I dont think I can wprk like this - I am going to see my gp again tomorrow but I am starting to feel like am anoying person - I am just thankful the spotting stopped - need to try think possitively-x
