Re: Spotting at 6 weeks?
I had bleeding with all 3 of y pregnancies.
- I bleed from week 5 to week 12 with my first (usually brownish blood) there was a big gush of fresh blood at week 10. I gave birth to a healthy bub at 39 weeks.
- My second pregnancy ended with a miscarriage at around 7 weeks. Bleeding, cramping, felt faint. I was spending most of the time lying down. Was actually woken from my sleep by the cramps. There is nothing you can do to stop a miscarriage. Even complete bed rest won't prevent it. Nor will positive thoughts or anything else (so feel free to be as stressed as you like - it won't make things worse!!!!). Nature is completely in control.
- My third pregnancy was similar to my first. Another healthy bub.
If you go to the doctor they will heck your hormone levels (blood test), look to see if your cervix is still closed (the mucous plug can let blood through and still be considered 'closed'). Otherwise you can just take it easy as see how things go.
If you get period like pain or notice any blood loss (that looks like a clot), then it is probably a miscarriage. Otherwise there is always hope. Good luck.
