Guest guest Posted August 13, 2005 Report Share Posted August 13, 2005 Hi - quite a few women on this board have had first and second trimester bleeding - various causes, usually benign. I doubt it would be linked to the timing of your period. Bleeding is very common even with non-MA pregnancies. Is your bleeding accompanied by cramping - usually this is more worrying. I had spotting at 8, 9, 12 weeks (light red blood, followed by days of brown spotting) and hours of 'gushing' bright red bleeding at 14 weeks - caused by placenta previa. While I had to take 7 weeks off work, the pregnancy was fine, DD was born at 40 weeks 1 day. If you start bleeding more heavily, whether with cramps or not, seek immediate care. I would still phone your perinatologist or ob-gyn and try to get an u/s to check everything out - if only to put your mind at rest.

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2005 Report Share Posted August 13, 2005 I'm UD and 27 weeks pregnant. I had two bleeding episodes in my first trimester. The first time my doc. sent me for an ultrasound that that really assured me. The second time they heard the heart beat on a doppler. Everything turned out to be OK. But it was a huge relief to have the doc. confirm that things were ok. Make sure to call your doc. and don't try to figure it out alone. M. > I'm UD and 11 weeks pregnant.
