Don't panic, I'm sure it's just a implantation bleed! I had one at 6 weeks and at 9 weeks with a placenta bleed, I think it's very common but it's always good to get checked out! My sister had periods until she was 18 weeks, she never new she was pregnant!!

I had one at 8 weeks and 13 weeks and all was fine, doesn't stop you worrying though I know. Fingers crossed for you.

Thanks, early pregnancy won't see me til 7 weeks!! They didn't seem to care

It's not that they don't care - they just can't do anything. At 5 weeks it's too early to see a heartbeat so at this point they're not able to tell you if it's viable or not, you just have to play a waiting game. Even if they did scan you, you'd be told to go back in 10 days/2 weeks.

It doesn't make things any easier though, j know. I hope it goes OK for you and it's just an unexplained bleed.

Pinklaydee1972 · 19/05/2012 09:55

Yes I thought so, with my other pregnancies don't think I knew this early so might have bled a bit then too. Oh well lots of finger crossing today

I had a 5-day bleed at 7 weeks and it scared me so bad! it was dark blood though so the nurse told me to rest and try to settle - really hard when you don't know what's going on with your body anyway! I think it was implantation bleed, but completely understand... it is a worry when you see it! xx
