Blood clots are serious concerns and even more so while you are pregnant. A blood clot during pregnancy has additional risks or concerns because of your developing baby.The good news is blood clots during pregnancy are rare and there is little need for concern.ormally, this occurs when you have a cut, to keep the injury from bleeding continuously. During pregnancy, your blood is more likely to clot as a safeguard against losing too much blood during labor.
If your menstrual flow is of average volume it is probable that you may have some actual blood clots. These clots are usually quite small and typically dark red to almost black in color. The clots are small because there is only a moderate amount of blood lost that needs to clot. The clots are dark in color because the blood has been sitting in the uterus for awhile before it comes out in your menstrual flow. If you are having a heavy menstrual flow your blood clots will appear very different. First of all these clots will be bigger because there is a larger amount of blood sitting in the uterus that needs to clot. Secondly, these clots are usually a much brighter red.
