Pregnancy

My girlfriend is 6.2 weeks pregnant and we thought she was 10 weeks well 10.2 weeks. Turns out she is 6.2 weeks, anyway, We went to the hospital because right after work she told me and her parents that she's bleeding/spotting. The Doc told us that she is threatened to miscarry due to not detecting a fetal heartbeat. We were afraid at that point. She's been spotting for 3 days now, first, it was brownish black then some clots i think, then pinkish blood. She has stopped bleeding for an hour now. Can anyone pls provide a logical response????

p.s. we're going to the Doctor today, WE PRAY THAT ALL IS WELL

I am so sorry to hear of ur loss. A miscarriage is VERY hard on both parents & can truly test your strength.  Be sure that she drinks lots of water as it will help with the bleeding & to use heat & Tylenol/Midol for any cramping.  Even though she was early on you both no doubt bonded with the baby she was carrying & grow to love the idea of her being pregnant.  Talk to each other as you need one another right now & that will help with your grief.  

Wishing u both the best & if either of u want to talk feel free to message me.

Bad News We got back from the Hospital 2 hours ago and I got to say we are both very distraught, we had my girlfriend's blood tested again to see if anything had altered in the last 27 hours, turns out that the HCG had dropped. The male nurse had told us that she had an incomplete abortion, as soon as he said it i felt like a bullet went through my heart but did not show my grief at first. The baby stopped growing. She needs to urinate all tissue and soon enough our dead fetus.We both cried in the car out of grief and sadness. So to all who are experiencing early signs of pregnancy bleeding go to the hospital ASAP!!

If the embryo stopped growing and no heartbeat is detected and she is also bleeding bright red blood with clots it is very likely a miscarriage. BUT the womb in very early pregnancy can be such a mystery and the bleeding could be the result of something else. Her dates could be off because the dates are merely estimations.

catching a heart beat in the early weeks is VERY difficult.  A lot of women bleed in early pregnancy & drs really have no idea why it is. Hopefully u get some good news at the drs today.

please updated when u get a chance

It could be a misscarriage or it could just be she's not that fat along. Only way to know is to get a repeat ultrasound.
