Q: Spotting And Bleeding At 11 Weeks
asked by: meagan0235 on June 12th, 2007

I am almost 11 weeks pregnant and i am having dark brown blood coming out. It isnt light but its not heavy where i would have to change a pad every hour. I went to the doctor and got an ultrasound. They said everything was ok and sent me home. They didnt explain anything to me or try to ease my mind on it. I did see the baby (which actually looked like a baby, which makes me think im further along) so it helped a little. I am still bleeding today which is the 4th day. Should i go back at all or get a hcg count? this is my first preg. so i dont know what to do... Please help

are you cramping at all?? Having lower back, abdominal cramps??

If so, def go to the er and get tested again.

But if not, many women experience this type of dark brown discharge during the 1st trimester of pregnancy.

If I can offer any advice. It would be to not google your symptoms. It will terrify you into believing you're miscarrying, when it could be nothing!

Keep us updated!!

I am nearly 11 weeks and I am having the same symptoms. I am scared to death. I went to the ER and they took my blood to see if my levels were normal. They told me to go home and not to work for 3-5 days. Put my feet up and just to get up to go to the bathroom. That was two days ago. My brown discharge is a bit heavier. My doctor is on vavcation but has left me 2 other doctors numbers to call. I am wondering if I went to the ER again if they would give me and ultrasound since it was the weekend when I went before. Like I said I am almost 11 weeks and considered high risk because of my age.(35)And still no calls to get an ultra sound. I just want to see that my baby is ok. It has my husband and I a little worried.

Hi Cheryl,

You are probably better off calling one of the doctors. They will tell you if you should go to the ER. The doctor can also request for them to give you an ultrasound. They will take you more serious in the ER if a doctor is involved. He also might want to see you in his office. I hope you get some answers soon! Goodluck and feel better. Keep us updated on your condition.
