Bleeding in early pregnancy HELP PLEASE

Only time will tell as the early pregnancy unit may not be able to say either way and a test is an indicator of pregnancy hormones which take time to disipatate if its not good news.

Get lots of rest and fingers crossed for you x

Thank you for sharing that with me. I'm starting to feel like this is a miscarriage although I'm not filling a pad and nothings really happening as soon as i go to the toilet a good amount of blood comes out, is that similar to what happened to you?
It doesn't look like what my period would look like though, it's like a dark pink with red dots in it, small tiny dots[/quote]
Hope your okay lovely try doing a test tomorrow I really hope for you it Isent a miscarriage I know al too well the pain and disappointment it brings I've got everything crossed for you please keep us updated xx 😘

I had gushing - both times.

The second pregnancy we could see the evidence in the ultrasound. It was unclear whether it was a hematoma or a twin.

The first pregnancy we never got to the bottom of what had caused it.

It is hard but there is nothing you can do and you will drive yourself crazy. Hugs

Also in my second pregnancy after the gushing blood they did an ultrasound. I was almost exactly 8 weeks from the date of my last period. But I turned out to be 12 weeks pregnant: I’d had a slightly lighter than normal period in my first month of pregnancy

@jessica753 I'm sorry but the GP/ midwife/ hospital won't be able to do anything to help you at the moment. The hospital will only scan you if you're about 7 weeks pregnant, as that is when it is visible on a scan. Before that, they'll just tell you to monitor the situation.

I'm sorry. I know how worrying it is, especially when you're having pain too.

I had this with both pregnancies from the moment I found out I was pregnant through to 10 weeks or so. Hope it all works out for you.

I have been getting faint possitives from Monday but yesterday I got a very clear possitive on a first response test.
Ive had consistent cramping all week honestly, with my son, i had none of this I think that's why I'm so confused and worried.
I also had a miscarriage over a month ago so I'm worried it's happening again although I didn't have bleeding when it happened. I'm sorry about the 5 miscarriages you had, hope you are okay xx[/quote]
It's okay lovely only thing I can suggest is wait this out time will tell I really hope you have a sticky bean ❤️ xxx

Hi @Jessica753
I’m sorry your going through this, any bleeding is always a worry. It can be completely normal and Quite common.
It depends on how Long the bleeding goes on for and how heavy.... bleeding for 3 days Straight is more likely something isn’t right. If it’s very light, and/or it is on and off bleeding it’s less likely to be something to worry about.

The blood in the first few pics looks light, the second is a bit stronger. But hard to tell. It certainly doesn’t look like a lot or very dark red or clots.

It’s awful to have to wait and not know, but you will only be able to tell with a bit of time. It’s agony I know, but it depends on how things progress.

Definitely talk to the doc tomorrow and get some advice.

Fingers crossed for you 🤞

Let us know how you get on

Hi OP. I'm sorry you're experiencing this. I know how stressful it is. This has happened to me three times. Once it was fine, and twice it wasn't.

Can I just clarify; you said you're three weeks pregnant. Do you mean it's three weeks since ovulation? Usually it's measured in weeks since your last period started. (Sorry if this is teaching you to suck eggs). Just how far along you are will influence whether an Early Pregnancy Unit or midwife can do anything to help you to understand what's going on.

Are you having any pain with the bleeding? When my bleeding did not end well, I had really bad cramps with the bleeding.

I hope everything will be ok for you.

Hi it's so scary Isent it bleeding in early pregnancy when did you get your positive ? I would wait and see what happens doctors won't really do anything till your further along I know I've had 5 consecutive miscarriages now .. but no all bleeding is bad news I once had implantation bleeding with my son the same as yours .. have you had any cramping ? Xx

Oh sorry and I had lost all my pregnancy symptoms in the days leading up to it, I just kinda didn't feel pregnant anymore so was half expecting it.

Ps. Sorry for the sad post, I only mention it because you asked about comparing bleeding to miscarriage.

Hi @Jessica753 just wanted to say I'm really sorry you are going through all this stress.

I recently had a very early miscarriage and the worst bit for me was the waiting to see if the bleeding progressed or not and hoping it would stop. For me I knew relatively quickly that it was a miscarriage as it started out brought pink and progressed to red over the course of an afternoon and was quite heavy the next day with cramping. I think brown is supposed to be a less concerning colour than bright red as its older blood.

I completely agree with what everyone is saying though , lots of times bleeding can happen in pregnancy and everything turns out ok, fingers crossed that for you that is the case and all is well.

I've had early bleeding (like a period) in three pregnancies and everything was ok. For me it was always a subchorionic haematoma. Good luck x

That’s hardly anything! I had a heavy period amount with DS1 over about a week. With this pregnancy I had a sudden hush of A LOT of blood (about half a pint in under a minute) and scans are showing DS2 is ok.
