Twelve weeks pregnant with some blood

Twelve weeks of pregnancy, which means about three months of pregnancy, is in the late stage of early pregnancy. During this period, although the embryo has developed, its development is still unstable. Bleeding symptoms are also common during this period. Generally speaking, bleeding symptoms at 12 weeks of pregnancy are usually related to factors such as ectopic pregnancy, miscarriage, improper sperm implantation, and excessive fatigue of the pregnant woman.

1. Analysis of the causes of bleeding during 12 weeks of pregnancy

1. Ectopic pregnancy

An ectopic pregnancy is when the embryonic sac implants outside the uterus instead of inside it. The conceptus that implants outside the uterine cavity cannot develop normally, and the ratio of estrogen and progesterone in the body changes, causing the decidua to separate and leading to irregular vaginal bleeding.

2. Miscarriage

Once there is bleeding or other miscarriage symptoms in early pregnancy, medication will be prescribed to help maintain the fetus after the intrauterine pregnancy is confirmed. The tocolytic drug given in the early stage is progesterone, which can help the placenta implant tightly to avoid miscarriage. In addition, inflammation can also lead to miscarriage. When vaginal discharge increases, the vagina becomes itchy, has a foul odor, and is yellowish in color, it indicates inflammation. Regardless of whether you are not pregnant yet or in the early stages of pregnancy, if there is inflammation, you must see a doctor to cure the disease, otherwise it may cause premature birth or even miscarriage in the future.

3. Implantation position is inappropriate

Although some embryos implant in the uterus, they are in the cervix or uterine horn, which is called ectopic pregnancy. They often cannot grow and develop normally and lead to miscarriage.

4. Pregnant women are too tired

If a pregnant woman experiences a small amount of bleeding each time due to being too tired or under a lot of work pressure, the symptoms can be improved by simply resting in bed more. Although bed rest is the best way to keep the fetus safe, when bleeding is first discovered, it is best to ask a doctor to identify the symptoms to avoid missing the opportunity for treatment.

2. What to do if you are tired during pregnancy

1. Sleep when you want

Go to bed earlier. Your body is now working harder, so it needs more rest. Try to avoid staying up late.

2. Don’t worry too much about your sleeping position

Although this stage is a critical period for the growth and development of the baby in the belly, because he is still small, he can be protected by the mother's pelvic cavity, so external force or the pregnant woman's own pressure will not cause harm to the baby. Therefore, pregnant women can choose a position that makes them comfortable, whether it is lying on their back or on their side.
