Dark Bleeding-Miscarriage or Not? Six weeks pregnant then... (WARNING: GRAPHIC IN NATURE)..

Good morning and goodnight, I should say.

We are in the wee hours of the morning of 15/03/ 14.  A few days ago I shared the good news with you about my pregnancy.  The other day everything was fine.

After a very calm evening, I was sitting down when felt something odd...like discharge...so I went to the bathroom to check and I saw that i had bled.

I immediately got so scared and nervous about a miscarriage.

I began to search the internet for any information I could find about what was happening to me.  I went out of the bathroom and over to Tym.

 I explained to him what happened and he held my hand and he said everything is going to be fine.

I want to believe in his words.  I was such a state of shock because of what was happening but then I realized something.

 I saw after reading online for 3 hours that I was not the only woman in the world that was experiencing this.   There are thousands of women out there experiencing what I am experiencing and there is a chance that it could be a miscarriage in the making as much is there is a chance that it could be just normal wear and tear on the uterus.

 I mean this isn't my first child but it is definitely my first pregnancy where I have experienced any bleeding.

 I checked the color of blood and it was about the size if maybe a stick of gum and it was very very dark red brownish color which, as I read MORE, this was very common.

Because of the color, the blood was very old which means it may have been there for a while in the body and just now making its way out.

 So I feel a little more confident that things are okay. Of course, there are so many things going on with me and I will keep you posted about my situation.  Im a very unique case.  First of all, I'm over 40, second--I have had 5 c sections, 3rd-'this is my baby #6 and my youngest child is only 10 months.  So there are a lot of factors that need to be taken into consideration with me, I know my pregnancy will be high risk because of all of the things from before.

 I will do what's right and go to my doctor next week for my appointment.   If I should have a spontaneous abortion (miscarriage) I will keep you posted...

Whatever the Doc says...I will post.

Of course, we're hoping for the best.
