Hi everyone. I got my BFP a week ago on saturday ( had 2 miscarriages previously) . Taken about 5 clearblue digi tests and now a week and 2 days later they are still satin 1-2 weeks ( which in real life means under 4 weeks ) then last night I had 2 bright red wipes of blood although nothing now and all night. What should u do? Docs can't exactly do a scan this early ( other miscarriages were after 8 wks ) . Don't know what to do and can't do this again.

I know it's totally horrid, but you can only wait and see. Bleeding needn't be bad news, and I would suggest stop pissing money away on sticks as for today you are pregnant.

I hope the bleeding stays away and you feel calmer soon.

It may not be. For DD, I was showing 1-2 weeks on a clear blue until I was around 5 weeks +. I would try to relax and get an appointment with your doctor to discuss. Many women bleed through pregnancy and have a healthy result, even after miscarriage.

Haha to the pissing money away Jol! Thanks for that perspective ( and making me smile after the pathetic tears this morning) you are right of course.
Walnut.. Really? Well that is encouraging about when you had your daughter.

My brilliant local hospital told me to come in for a blood test so ive been in and have to call at 1:30pm for the results. Then got to go again in 48 hours to see if the hcg level has risen by 66% or not.

Waiting game.. Thanks for taking time to reply. X

that's great that your hospital are so supportive :).

I know how you're feeling, am currently 9+2 after 5 MCs, and one DS who's 3. So I know the angst, I really do.

Keep us posted.

Wow joll 5? Really are no words. At least we have our little superhero 3 year olds. When I feel bad, I just look at him and it's enough to make me feel lucky. Really got everything crossed for you for this time. X

So HCG level was only 18 and now got proper period. Looks like miscarriage number 3 confirmed. They will test Wednesday to be doubly sure . Trying to look on the bright side. 1. It was early on this time. 2. Now I've had three miscarriages they will do some rests I guess.

That sucks hoping sorry to hear that. I had an v early MC recently, but never had another type thankfully, so can sympathise fully with the disappointment, although after 3 you just be really gutted. Fingers crossed you get a happy outcome soon x

Sorry to hear that Sad. I have had 4 miscarriages but have now got 3 DS. Hopefully they will give you all the tests now and be able to do something next time you are pregnant. It is awful though no matter how early it is so hope you ate ok.

randomimposter · 06/03/2012 07:53

so sorry hoping. As you say having a 3 year old allows you virtually no time to wallow and fret, and reminds you how lucky we are to have them.

And yes, the tests are a good "practical" thing to get arranged and make you feel you are in control.

I wish you all the best in the future. x
