Been checked out today. All okay apart from an infection.

Countdown to next scan in a couple of weeks when I feel I’ll be able to relax a little bit if all goes well

Yeah it’s really tough. To be honest sitting at home for 9 days bleeding and not knowing whether I was miscarrying or not was almost worse than the actual miscarriage because I was constantly googling and trying to find any possible reason that could explain it that wasn’t a miscarriage, even when I was passing products I was still in denial. It was bleeping awful and I feel like some of that distress could have been appeased by knowing what was happening. I paid for a private scan after 9 days as I couldn’t take it anymore. I’ve thought about writing a letter to them but I haven’t bothered, I know the sort of generic reply I’ll get so I don’t see the point.
That sounds absoultey awful! I’m so sorry you went through that. I feel like I’m going through something similar, I’ve tried to work my dates out and figured I should be around 4/4.5 weeks, I have been told to test every couple of days which I have been and the like is stronger, bleeding had stopped and I had a follow up with doctor today who has said it’s sounding positive and it could be a viable pregnancy? I started to get so upset as I’ve had someone tell me I’ve had a early loss and another tell me it’s sounding positive? I feel sick with anxiety and I can’t sleep with being in limbo, they won’t do anything until next week!! Not even a blood test!! X

So two years ago I done a pregnancy test that came back positive I then started to bleed the next day and went to the early pregnancy clinic where they told me I had a chemical pregnancy and to expect to bleed. It didn’t sit right with me so I went home and every day I took more and more tests the lines were getting darker and the weeks got more advanced on the clear blue digital. So I went back to the epu to find out I was in fact carry a baby and was pregnant all along. I would just say as hard as it is wait and do a clear blue digital and if the weeks progress I would go back and I had to have blood test done to see if my hgc was rising and it was. I’ve just put my two year old to bed x have faith what is meant to be will be x

This is currently the exact situation I am in! Found out I was pregnant last Friday started bleeding for 2 days last Saturday! Went to EPU got told It looks like i had an early loss, I have been testing everyday since and lines have gotten darker 🤞 I have to make contact with them if it’s still positive by Tuesday. I’m really really trying to stay positive; but I feel sick with worry and I hate not knowing what is going on, but I agree what’s meant to be with be ❤ So glad to have read your positive story! Xxx

I bled carrying my second child. It was Christmas day but didn't say anything to my partner as I didnt want to ruin it for my other daughter.

Turns out I had a tear in my placenta. I had to go on bed rest. Bed rest with a 4 year old. So I just took things steady. Any way moving on I now have a crazy 18 month old.

Maybe phone your midwife in the morning? Or 111. Id get it checked out for peace of mind.

oh I hope you have a positive outcome. It’s looking likely given your tests. They should do a blood test and check your levels for you when you next go and then your hve to go back again in 2 days to check if they have doubled. I’m sending all the baby dust and sticky vibes to you! Honestly from the bottom of my heart I wish you all the best on your journey x

So I’m 11 weeks pregnant with my first. Had a miscarriage last year at 10 weeks.

Had a bleed in December and was checked out at the hospital and thankfully a heartbeat was found.

I’ve started lightly bleeding this morning (TMI but it’s more brown than red) and I’m so sick of how stressful this all is. I don’t want to go to hospital again as I waited to be seen for 4 hours in December and it’s so stressful with obviously COVID situation. It’s so disheartening waiting for something to happen.

No real reason for my post other than to rant. Is regular bleeding really ever compatible with pregnancy
Sorry you are going through this. Brown blood is often old so fingers crossed it’s from your previous bleed. Lots of love and thinking of you x
 
So sorry to hear this. Bleeding in pregnancy is always really scary. It is very positive that you have seen a heartbeat on a previous scan though. I’d strongly recommend calling ÉPAU if it continues - do you have your dating scan soon?

I do agree with what’s been previously said that my experience of bleeding in early pregnancy was that they didn’t care - I miscarried at 6 weeks and it was in the first lockdown, just told to call back if I got severe pain not managed by painkillers or if I was soaking a pad every hour (had no idea if it was a miscarriage or not at this point, was not offered a scan or any follow up). However given you are 11 weeks and you have previously seen a heartbeat I think you may have a different reaction. Xxxx
This is exactly what happened to me in December, took over a week of bleeding to get an appointment at the EPU. In that time the tests were getting lighter and I eventually found out I’d suffered a loss at a scan. That wasn’t communicated to the midwife who called a few days later for my first appointment so I had to tell her myself, not upsetting at all.

Oh god yes I forgot that bit. I had not one but two phone calls from midwives asking me why I’d missed antenatal clinic appointments. And I had called their office to tell them about the miscarriage the day after my scan. Not ideal!!
 
14 weeks tomorrow and everything to looking really promising.

A reminder to everyone who is worried about bleeding that it doesn’t always mean the worst xx
