Always report any bleeding during pregnancy to Dr immediatly. I know in Spokane where I live, once you are 20 weeks pregnant if you have lbeeding or spotting they send you to the labor ward.
I do have a bit of positiveness to share though.
When I was about 6 weeks pregnant I began bleeding, and the bleeding lasted off and on for a month, until I began streaming blood very very heavily, I was filling the toilet with blood.
I ended up having partial placental abruption of about 30%. This is where the placenta tares away from the uterus. i was told to prepare for a miscarriage because there was so much of the placenta gone.
I am now 32 weeks pregnant with a big healthy baby boy!! So remember even when things look bad or scary there can always be light at the end of the tunnel.
Let us kow what the Dr. said
