Hello there..

Bleeding so early in pregnancy is a bad sign. This is because such pregnancies usually abort. You have also mentioned that you bled heavily with clots and severe pain. Before taking any medication , I suggest you should confirm if the baby is still there as such a heavy bleeding usually completes the abortion especially at such an early gestation. But there is a rare posibility that your pregnancy is still there and it continues till term. You should get an ultrasound to check if the gestational sac is there. A transvaginal ultrasound would be better as your pregnancy is too small to be visualized by transabdominal scan. Since you are bleeding now so ultrasound through vagina (transvaginal) is not possible now. So you have no option than waiting. By 5-6weeks, pregnancy is visible on transabdominal scan. Its better you get your ultrasound then.
Meanwhile you continue your folic acid tablet. Take good amount of rest. Avoid intercourse, heavy work and stress. YOu can continue duphaston though its role is still controversial as 100% efficacy is still not proved. But there is no harm in continuing.
All the best.
Take care

HI, welcome to hCM
A bleeding during first trimester is always dengerous not proved otherwise.
Now, you have a bleeding experience.
Continue the medication and take rest appropriately.
But one hard truth is there is a very high chance of miscarriage. You must be prepared for that..
Do an USG scan when you are in stable condition. It will confirm everything.
THats all.

Hello,
Firstly, you should try to stay calm and avoid stress as much as possible as stress itself is a negative factor. Also, you should know that you are doing your best and the doctor is taking good care. First trimester bleeding is very frequent, it subsides majority of times without any evil effects, but caution is always exercised when it occurs. Associated symptoms like abdominal pain indicate uterine irritability. Since you are still experiencing spotting we keep our fingers crossed regarding the future of the pregnancy, as you are also having pain. It could subside completely, but viability should be decided by a sonogram and hCG measurements if needed and the further course of action decided. Take absolute bed rest, avoid intercourse and follow your doctor's prescription. Good luck.

Hi,
Time will only tell whether pregnancy is going to continue or otherwise. Till that time you can take prescribed medicines & try to relax. If pregnancy continues the bleeding/medicines have no side effect on baby.
Wish you good health.
