Spotting at 14 weeks

[srcfal]

Hello, I'm trying not to panic. I had a miscarriage in the summer. I'm now 14 weeks pregnant. I had pink/ red spotting at 6 weeks. The scan showed a happy baby with a heartbeat. Then again at 11 weeks. Another scan showed a healthy baby. My 12 week scan showed a well developed healthy baby again. But I have spotted at 13 weeks and again today (14 weeks). It's never fresh blood.. but there's weird little clots in it (sorry- TMI I know).. mostly just tinged discharge. My dr said not to worry unless it's very heavy and painful but I am so worried. I can't get any more scans until referred now and they're not going to... can anyone reassure me please?

Hi @srcfal I'm so sorry it's hugely stressful. I had exactly the same. Several bleeds in early pregnancy (including one so big I thought I'd had a miscarriage) and then a bleed at 12 weeks and at 15 weeks - they were smaller but still terrifying, with little clots as you say.

I called the EPU and they let me in for a scan. If your doctor is saying no, would you try calling EPU directly, mention bleeding (no need to say "spotting" - blood is blood, but obviously be honest when they follow up to ask how much)

Everything was totally fine and I'm approaching 3rd trimester. I had a haematoma that bled repeatedly as it resolved. Baby totally fine, but likes causing major worry in its parents! I really hope all goes well for you, and worth continuing to push to get a scan because it can help put your mind at rest.
