Having bleeding symptoms. Wasn’t able to confirm viability
Update: unfortunately, it was a missed miscarriage
11w 0d. At around 8w4d, we went for an ultrasound (abdominal, hadn’t really filled up my bladder too much), and while the obgyn found a sac and something inside it, she struggled to really easily see it and wasn’t able to confirm viability air she said to come back in 2 weeks.
At 10w0d, I start lightly spotting, mostly brown. At 10w3d, I get a little more moderate bleeding, this time red blood. It seems to correlate to bowel movements or to me bending over a lot. Have not seen any tissue come out, no heavy bleeding.
It had been 7 days and I’m still having these symptoms. I was finally able to get an earlier ultrasound in the books for this Friday but the suspense is killing me.
Has anyone went through this? / also virtual hugs welcome

Oh and to be clear - ob-gyn did say it wasn’t an emergency situation. Which, great, but this still doesn’t tell me if my baby is viable or not
I’m sorry you’re going through this. It’s a long time to wait for reassurance. I didn’t go through similar symptoms myself but I remember things were considered more serious past 12 weeks of pregnancy. I assume it’s because before that, chances of miscarriages are sadly statistically higher. You could take a pregnancy test to check presence of hCG. It’s not the same as having a medical diagnosis but I remember doing this a few times early in the pregnancy when I wasn’t sure of my symptoms. I hope everything is normal for you and your baby. Sending you hugs and Good luck
Im almost 30 weeks I’ve had spotting on and off form the last couple months went to the er a couple times and they said it’s normal to have some spotting bc of the sensitivity of the cervix.
I’d go the emergency room
Sorry you have to go through the suspense of it all. I recently had a SCH at 8 weeks.. and surprisingly my OB said its a pretty common thing but it cleared up in about 3 weeks with very light spotting here and there.
Ifyou arent having change pads frequently throughout the day and have no cramps, i would assume all is well! At your next visit they may do an vaginal ultrasound.
