The doctor should have told you everything you needed to know. Did he say it was a possibility. I don't think it necessarily means you are. Some people spot throughout the whole process. Just remember, God has a plan for everybody.

I had a friend who had her period for the first 4 months of her pregnancy, so bleeding alone does not necessarily mean you are having a miscarriage. But you should work closely with your doctor and OBGYN in case you are at risk for a miscarriage or some other health problem. Don't delay as the earlier you catch problems, the better your chances for a healthy delivery for you and your baby. Make sure the doctor tells you exactly what's wrong, what it means and what you need to do about it. Don't leave their office without some answers or at least some further tests. If you aren't feeling bold enough to get all the questions answered that you deserve, then take a friend with you to act as your advocate. Good luck!

The spotting after sex is normal, but I'm not sure about the blood clot. I had a pool of blood on top of my cervix that eventually came out and I didn't miscarry. I don't know if that's the same thing though. Your doc should have explained all this to you.

I've miscarried twice. It involved some serious cramping and a LOT of super-gushy bleeding.
Sounds like your doctor only gave you half the information you needed. How weird, he just told you two very scary things and nothing else? HE should be able to tell you if you are miscarrying if he's any type of doctor.
If you seriously think you are miscarrying, go directly to the ER. If it isn't urgent, then see a (different) doctor as soon as you can.
I hope everything works out. I don't think you are miscarrying, you'd "know". . . kind of like you "knew" when you were pregnant :) It's a feeling you just have, you know? Good luck, you'll be a good parent.

Happened to me to lots during my second preg. But mine was a low lying placenta that bled for about a week each time I had sex. My doctor made me stop sex for 3 weeks but it continued every time. I did not miscarry, sure hope you don't either. However, I did end up with a c-section. Good Luck

you should set up to see your pcp, but keep a watchful eye on your vaginal area. watch for signs of bright red blood, which is not good- back to E.R.
if it's darker blood and sporadic, keep an eye on it. and no baths. possibly a miscarriage, because if there is an issue with the cervix, that would be a problem.

that does not sound too good. But I have spotted after sex while I was pregnant, i did not miscarry. Spotting is normal in the first trimester

It could be a miscarriage, or bleeding from implantation. I personally never had either. Go to the Doctor, and have them do an ultrasound to tell for sure

I thought you would have asked the doctor any questions you had, not rely on this place for answers
