I spent all yesterday in the yard working quite hard. I woke up at 3.50am quite thirsty and went to the toilet afterwards. When I wiped there was bright red blood. After I wiped a bit it was gone and has not returned this morning but I am of course a mess. I have no other issues like cramping. I am going in for my week 12 scan tomorrow and now I am so scared that it will be bad. Has anyone experienced this and it was ok?

I am sorry to say that I have experianced the same thing, but it was not okay. I know you wanted reassurance but I think that you should be aware of what could be happening.
I woke up around 6 am and went to the restroom and was bleeding. I woke my husband and we went to the ER, it was Sunday. They said that I had had a missed abortion ( I hate that they use that word instead of M/C). They said that I needed to go to my doctors, so I went on tuesday when they had an opening. The doctor said that I needed a d&c to clean out the rest. I was so scared.Come to find out my husband and I have opposite blood types. I am RH - and he is positive. So I have to have a shot at 28 weeks. But that was in December and I am now 14 weeks pregnant. And everything is going well. Just know that there is life after a miscarriage, and you can try again. But I hope and pray that you are fine and so is your baby.
Good luck

my sis in law had bleeding at 12 weeks. She went straight to the ER and the scan was done right away. Turned out, she just had a vaginal issue, nothing to do with the baby, that caused her bleeding. Sometimes, the vagina can tear or have a little infection, but does not go further up to the baby. Good luck.

If you were to call your doctor they would most likely tell you to rest (Lay down) and not do anything strenuous. I was told to not have sex for at least 2 weeks when I spotted while pregnant. I would call your doctor's answering service just to be on the safe side. I had 3 early miscarriages (7-8 weeks) and I never had cramping, so that is not always a sign for everyone.

A relative of mine had bleeding off and on throughout her first trimester and everything was fine. Her doctor told her sometimes it just happens because the uterus is growing bigger to accommodate the baby and because the uterus lining has built up so much there is just a bit of breakage. Usually it is only when there is lots of blood and pain that there is a problem. Best of luck, I know its hard but try not to stress for the baby's sake.

yeah bleeding like that put me in the ER at 14 weeks! They said I had a "threatened miscarriage." I just got off bedrest after a month. Tell your doctor!!
On the positive side, my baby girl is still doing good and I'm now at 19 weeks.
By the way, I'm Rh negative (my husband is not) and that had NOTHING to do with it.

It is actually common for some women to experience some bleeding during pregnancy. As long as it went away you shouldnt have any problems. I would definatly take it easy.

This question is definitely one that I would call your doctor about but in my opinion if the blood didnt come back then everything is probably ok- hope it is and good luck tomorrow!

I bled during 2 of my pregnancies, and of course I panicked! Spotting is very common during pregnancies. Keep your appointment tomorrow, but don't worry! Stressing yourself is not healthy.

Might be a problem or might not. Best to tell your doctor and if you're Rh negative your doc may want you to receive Rhogam. Best wishes!
