Yes, I did with my previous three pgs and again with my current pg (I'm at 26 wks now). Usually, my bleeding was little more than spotting, sometimes pink but mostly brown blood. With my current pg I had 4 episodes of very light bleeding with no cramping, the 1st at 4 weeks and the last at around 10 weeks along. My second pg ended in a miscarriage at 13weeks, and the bleeding began in the same manner as my other successful pgs except that I had mild cramping at first. This progressed to redder and redder blood as well as more pronounced cramping. During my third pg I had some scary bleeding at 9 weeks along. I was in the bathroom already and felt a big gush so I quickly sat on the toilet. It was just like someone had turned on a tap. I passed lots of blood and 2 clots and then the bleeding stopped as suddenly as it had started. It just ran out of me. There was no cramping, but I was convinced I had lost the baby. I went for an US and we discovered that the fetus was fine. I went on to deliver a healthy 9lb 13oz baby boy. Except for that one mis, all of my other pgs have ended with big healthy babies too.
