Guest guest Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 Last week I passed blood clots and blood with no cramps. They did an ultrasound and saw that our baby is doing well with a heart beat of 147 beats per minute. I read an article last night that says if they can see the heartbeat then you are more than likely to have a live birth. I was put on rest, no sex, and no stress. I see my new Ob-gyn this week. I will say a prayer for you. Chrystal Check out my webpages: http://chrystallife.50megs.com http://members.ebay.com/aboutme/seeswensonauctions/ Spotting Normal?? Hi All - Well Saturday night, I spotted a little - so being a first time pregnant person - I went straight to the emergency room - the docs looked at everything and said it looked okay - I had no cramps and just a small amount of blood (the size of a half dollar) - I have an appt. on Thursday where they are to see the heart beat - we are 6 weeks conceived so that makes me eight weeks pregnant - shouldn't they be able to hear the heart beat by then?? My due date is July 28th - they said not to worry as I haven't had any more spotting at all - no discharge and no cramps - has anyone else had any similar experiences?? and what is it usually? Thanks - Have a great day - Jennie Children are a blessing, and a gift from the Lord. -Psalm 127:3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 --- In OSSG-pregnant , " Jennie Soukup " Dear Jennie at 8 weeks pregnant it is too early to hear the baby's heart beat on doppler but your dr should be able to see it on ultrasound. The other test they can perform is a blood test to see what the pregnancy hormones are doing. The test is called a Bhcg in Australia. Usually 2 blood tests are taken a few days apart. If the pregnancy hormone level is increasing the pregnancy continues. if the pergnancy hormone is dropping it usually mean a miscarriage has occured. Our thought and prayers are with you. I hope to hear good news after your next check up. keep posted. cathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 They will be able to see the heart beat when you go, I don't know if they can hear it. I am due on the 27th and I go tomorrow for my ultrasound to see the heartbeat. I have spotted for my pregnancies and when I was prego for the twins I bled bright red for a week, I did not even know I was prego because of the bleeding and I was 10 weeks, LOL. It is very common to spot so try not to worry, I know easier said than done. Our prayers are with you and your baby. HUGS, ROBIN, NY Age- 41 Due Date- July 27th, 2004 OPEN RNY 10-18-02 378/246/170???

Guest guest Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 Jennie, When I was in that 5-6 week pregnant window I spotted just like you and when I called my doc they said it was implantation bleeding and was totally normal, but they ordered a ultrasound to make sure everything was alright and make me feel better. I am now 22 weeks pregnant (tomorrow) and everything is fine, haven't spotted once since that one day. Axelrod Spotting Normal??
