I am approximately 3-4weeks pregnant, I know I ...


Sent to Health Experts June 22, 2006 10:52 a.m.

I am approximately 3-4weeks pregnant, I know I concieved on the 4th or 5th of June, my last period was May 25th. I woke up on the 21st and was bleeding (medium spotting) when I urinated (maybe 2-3 drops of blood in toilet). This was at 7:30a.m. in the morning, again at 12:30p.m afternoon I had a small amount of blood when I wiped no blood in the toilet. I did not bleed anymore for the rest of the day. The morning of the 22nd I had some bleeding when I went to the bathroom (it's a weird colore-pale pinkish red, it looked like there may have been a discharge in it also. I am having period like cramping mild but consistent. I would have started my period sometime between the 21st and 23rd of June. There is no bleeding on the pad I was wearing. I did go to the emergency room. My HCG level was at 346, they were not able to tell me anything. I have 1 child already and he is healthy, I am 36 years old. I do not have a problem getting pregnant-1st try I was pregnant, Does this sound like a miscarriage? How long does a miscarriage normally take, and should my bleeding be heavier?

Hi
To be sure it is best advised you get a TVS (transvaginal ultrasonography )done .

I am going back to get another HCG test done in the AM, I am just wanting information on miscarriages, how long does it take, how much bleeding, I haven't had a significant amount, so I just want a little more information on miscarriage, and the DR at the ER said a TVS would not show anything, so he was going to do one but cancelled it. I still feel sick and my breast are still sore and my heart rate is still elevated as it was with my first pg in the first trimester. I have just moved for SC to KS and the drs are not very helpful here. There are not very many in the small town I live in, EX. I was the only patient in the ER. Does my HCG level seem adequate with my pg time.

I could have looked on the internet to find this information, I was wanting a Dr.'s opinion, however my HCG doubled from 364 to 766 but I am still having slight cramping, but I do have vaginitis so answer this without sending me to an internet site cause I can do that myself, could vaginitis cause a miscarriage, and is it associated with cramps at all, not sure what vaginitis is the dr. said it was a vaginal infection,

Signs of a miscarriage include vaginal bleeding, abdominal, lower back, or pelvic pain, or passing of tissue from the vagina. Bleeding may be light or heavy, constant or irregular. When bleeding is accompanied by pain, the likelihood of miscarriage is high. Usually some cramping and bleeding during pregnancy is normal- if it is severe, then it is most likely a miscarriage occurring. If your HCG levels are increasing, then this would be a sign that miscarriage was not occurring- if they are decreasing, it is a sign of miscarriage. Vagnitis is a general term for any type of irriation or inflammation of the vagina. The three most common types of vaginitis are bacterial vaginosis, yeast infection, and trichomonas. Did the doctor happen to mention specifically what type of vaginitis?

They did not specify, just told me I had a infection and some yeast, the nurse told me it was vaginitis, the dr. also said my cervix was completely closed.
