Brief Answer:
collected blood coming out

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, thanks for trusting health care magic.
As ultrasound shows viable pregnancy with cardiac activity there is nit much to worry as this continuing bleeding is most likely the colkected blood which is trying to come out of the uterine cavity.
Now our main concern is to stop it from recurring again for which you should take care of the following points -
- take bed rest as much as possible with at keadt 8 hours sleep at night and a minimum of 2 hours rest in afternoon
- avoid exertion or lifting heavy objects like bucket of water ir oike of clothes
- avoid intercourse
- take folic acid tablet regularly.
Try to stay relaxed and calm as most likely this is the collected blood only so just rest and above precautions will suffice.
Take care
Regards
