You can't carry care for everyone, everytime. A calm, caring professional is what is needed at that point. I've had at least 3 pregnancies end like that, BUT not all pv bleeding ends in the loss of the baby. I bled at 8 - 10 weeks with all my pregnancies; including the one that is now a 6ft 2 goth. The one that left me angriest of all was the last; I phoned my GP to report what was happening, and went on bedrest. He phoned back, insisted I get up and carry on as normal, because if it will happen, it will happen. I went back to bed for a week, then 27 weeks later produced a slightly prem perfect baby who got behind a steering wheel for the first time last Sunday. BTW, I have needed urgent hospitallisation about 10 times while pregnant. Not once did I call a neenaw. Keep up the good work, and the excellent blog
