A member asked:

Hi dr.im 9weeks pregnant. i had bleeding in the 5th week for few days. the obgyn said that the sac was lying low. what's the risk?does bedrest help?tq

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pregnancy bleeding: The embryo implants into the blood lining of the uterus, this can trigger bleeding, then as the placenta grows it can invade a blood vessel and more bleeding can happen, a low implantation can progress to a miscarriage or as the uterus grows then move away from the cervix. Getting an ultrasound now that you are 9 weeks will help you know it is okay. Bed rest does not change miscarriage risk.
