I would tell her to go to AandE. She shouldn't wait till friday. Getting pain and heavy bleeding is not good and she needs to see a doctor (a different one if nessesary). This is what happened to me, my doctor refused to give me a home visit after I'd been bleeding for weeks. I woke up one morning after cramping for a day or two and was in quite a lot of pain, the bleeding was also heavier. After getting no joy from my doctor (he told me to travel 12 miles to the surgery so he could examine me), I phoned an ambulance, they didn't even let me walk to the ambulance. Sadly I lost my baby that day. I am sorry to give you worrying news like this, but she really should get medical attention. Good luck, I really hope everything goes well.

Her body may be rejecting the baby. It's not uncommon. But heavy bleeding during a pregnancy is not something to dismiss. If she can, have her get off her feet as much as possible. If she begins to have cramping, that may be a sign that miscarriage is underway.
I would try a different Dr. I went through 8 in a depressed area of the US, where even Drs. aren't too bright,
before I found one that was good.
She should go to a different Dr.
Also, eating greens which contain vitamin k is wise all through pregnancy. Leafy ones like kale, chard, spinach are the best. One or more servings a day is recommended. That vitamin protects from hemorrhaging during and after delivery.
Also, it is absurd to think that EMO... is a doctor. He/she is obviously NOT. You should never use tampons when you are pregnant to avoid infection and tylenol is never recommended by a Dr. just off the cuff like that. That's abusive EMO, get real!

Its not that unusual for some bleeding , but if its heavy i would phone your GP or even the hospital to get another scan as this happened to my daughter-in-law, and i don't want to scare you but she lost the baby at 14 weeks, so best to get checked out again good luck

Some women are just prone to bleeding early on however if the bleeding is heavier tell her to go and get checked again urgently, hope all is ok

My sister had the same problem all it is is just she is just getting ready and if it is her first kid then it is very normal for them. it will go away in a few more weeks. i know this because i am a doctor at the bwd hospital. just give her a tampon and a tylenol and she will get better. ok?

Well if it is heavy she should go back. It could be a lot of things.
