I don't mean to alarm you, and I am not an expert, but I'd get in to the
doctor as soon as possible. I've had 2 miscarriages but not bleeding or
anything. Just no heartbeat when I went in to hear it, but I'm overly
cautious about everything. For your own peace of mind, I'd try to get
back in as soon as possible.
Good luck!
