i think something is seriously wrong and my dr isnt calling me back

Last night i ended up in agonizing cramping pain. I was crying, doubled over, difficulty breathing. I kept thinking i was going to have diarrhea but when id go to the bathroom and try i woildnt. But i was passing pink mucus and then some light pink blood. It was horribly painful. I eventually had diarrhea and took tylenol and managed to sleep. I called my drs emergency # and left a message for her to call me back 2 hours ago but with it being sunday i dont know how quickly ill get a response. Im very anxious. I dont know if that small amount of blood could signify a miscarriage or if the cramps were from the diarrhea or what. Im sorry i keep posting so much. It helps me not freak out as much i guess.

Oh dear, thats never happened to me but i have read posts from lots of women who have had that same thing happen to them before 6 weeks. Their levels arent very high and they cant find anythkng with the ultrasound but a few weeks later they did an ultrasound and there was a healthy baby shining through the screen. So still dont stress too much bc i promise it doesnt necessarily mean you have miscarried or anything, im still praying for you and hopefully everything will be just fine, still keep us posted ok? And remember to still relax and keep your feet up!

The baby isnt growing. They have me scheduled for another u/s in a week but my results werent desirable.  They found a small, empty gestational sac and my hormone levels arent even at 3000 and they were around 2500 on thursday.

Goodmorning! I am sure everyrhing is fine. Probably the light bleeding is from implantation. I have had 3 occasiones of bleeding with this pregnancy and the doctors told me i was trying to miscarry in the beginning as well. Try not to stress out to much. Im sure everything will be fine.

I know but ive been on it for 3 years. My dr said it was safer to taper off than quit abruptly. So my dosage got lowered and then i eventually step down to nothing

Erin626- xanax isn't safe to take during pregnancy. I had it before becoming pregnant and all of my docs said it was a big no no. Please be careful.

Hopefully thats all it is. Last night was just weird. Id have like 5 min of bearable cramps followed by the agonizing pain. And the cycle continued. Who knows maybe the cramps really were just from severe constipation. I dont know if it was a bug because i have an imflammatory bowel disease that can cause me stomach issues. Ive just never experienced pain that bad from it before

Dont over think things sweetie. Im 34 weeks and some dsys im breasts arent tender anymore but some days my husband can just look st them and they hurt, and at 5 weeks you shouldnt be that big anyways and with you stressing im sure you have lost a pound or two. Just relax bc getting upset isnt helping. I say just take your nausea medicine or whatever medicine it is you take and go lay in your bed with your feet on a pillow with just total quite and relax, read a book, watch tv, surf the internet on your phone or anything else that will take your mind off of it. Stay there the rest of the day, if you start hurting really bad then go the the er if not then just go in in the morning and im sure evrrything will be fine. Im betting its just normal early pregnancy spotting and discharge and you have happen to have a little stomach bug on top of it making you sick and its just a coinsidence. Remember dont stress and and relax. Im praying for you and we are all here for you. Keep us posted sweetie!

I had an ectopic before this pregnancy i started having pink and brown discharge i went to the er they did ultradound but they didnt find anything nowhere i was around 5weeks to two days after i started having cramps and blood i went back and they said its definitly an ectopic because of my hcg to . So fortunatly they didnt do a surgery they injected me to stop the pregnancy where it is . I wish that u dont have the samething bcs its a painful experience. Just be careful and go to the er if u dont feel better . Wish u the best .

I just noticed that the tenderness in my boobs is gone. My bf says the kind of look smaller. I wasnt expecting this pregnancy and was devastated at first. But im almost 29 and wanting a family soon so i began to get excited. :(

I talked to my dr. The cramps arent severe anymore. Just annoying. Still lots of pink mucusy discharge. She told me to go to the er if the excruciating pain came back. It hasnt as of yet. I see her tomorrow morning. I also checked my temp and it was 98.1 so no fever which is good. If i am miscarrying id prefer to be home and comfortable. The er i go to is huge, the drs arent that nice and it takes them forever to take care of you even if you should be a priority. Unfortunately that er is the only one that accepts my insurance. But i wont hesitate to go back if my pain goes back to where it was last night

Dont call in, after hours its a bit tougher to get a hold of the Dr's, blood, cramps, pain anything that does not feel right.  Go to ER. Ince you are there, they will contact tour physician.  Im praying things are much better for you. Please keep us posted.

When they did my last 2 ultrasound last week they checked for ectopic and found no evidence of one. Im so freaked out. Im still having cramps...not nearly as bad and im nauseous. But im thinking the nausea is from my anxiety so i took my xanax and it did help earlier

I've miscarried with very light spotting, it is possible. But I'd be concerned about an ectopic pregnancy with you which can cause your Fallopian tube to burst and you'll lose it. Please go to the er!

My Dr finally called back. She told me to go to the er today if the intense pain comes back. If I don't go to the er I'm going to her office immediately after my ultrasound tomorrow. I'm freaking out and my anxiety is getting pretty bad so I don't want to judge going to the er just yet until my anxiety subides because I know it can cause me to feel worse than I actually do. I'm going to play some online games, get my mind off things and if I'm still feeling lousy head back to the er. This is just miserable :(

I'm only 5 1/2 weeks along. I tried calling the ob on duty at the hospital my obgyn works out of. I was on hold for 15 min then hung up on. I have a dating/viability ultrasound tomorrow at 1030 am so I'm going to relax today and go to my appt tomorrow. Obviously if the pain gets really intense again I'll go to the er but I've been there twice this week for pain and they didn't do much and I just sat around for hours. I was really constipated. I'm hoping the pain was just really bad from the constipation and the diarrhea was just my body trying to get everything out and the spotting/blood was just a random thing.

Small/Light spottings doesnt need to mean anything. Try to not freak out. If you have more spottings of more of a blood solid color I would be concerned.
I wouldn't read in so much into spottings..
I hope you feel better, stop stressing -it is not healthy for you or the baby.
Have a cup of tea, relax.
Btw, how do you get a profile picture on here?
