Hi,

Thanks for writing to us.

With what you describe about your symptoms, your previous 5 miscarriages and the age , please visit the ER or see an OB / GYN immediately.

You are at high risk for a miscarriage, and this sounds like it could be the beginning of one.
For a normal lady, I would have said that mild bleeding / spotting in the first trimester often is benign, but given the high risk situation here, please ensure that this is not a pregnancy mishap again.
Needless to say, please rest,avoid intercourse or any stress.

Take care.

Please revert if you have any doubts.
