I have had a week of faint bfps...was over a week late for period (very regular) and then started bleeding.
The blood is heavyish and I have cramps. But it's not the same as my usual period and doesn't feel bad enough for an early miscarriage. It is pinker and watery and almost mixed with ewcm.
Anychance this could just be heavy implantation bleeding?
Ttc and feeling gutted that finally got a bpf and then this Hmm Anyone experienced similar and turned out to be pregnant?

What do the tests say now ??? Xxxxx I have had this and I put it down to a chemical :(

Chasmac · 15/03/2015 15:11

I haven't done another. Worried it will still be bfp....until body catches up if you know what I mean Hmm

I have no pregnancy tests so used an opk (heard they will still detect hcg) and its dark positive.
Don't know how long to wait... Don't know if I should go to an epu incase I don't pass everything or just let nature take its course. Bleeding had nearly all stopped. Surely a miscarriage would be worse?

Chasms I have no advice to offer, but maybe give nhs direct a call and see what they advise? Xx

I had a chemical preg before DC. Bleeding was like a normal period and pregnancy test went back to BFN. Not sure if you could still be having a chemical pregnancy, but it could be things are still ok and bleed is for a different reason, or ectopic could also be a risk. If still BFP and bleeding, I would get checked out to be safe.

We got a BFP the cycle immediately after that - think you can be more fertile right after a chemical pregnancy or miscarriage.

Good luck, whatever happens!

Any bleeding should be checked out by doc!! I had bleeding on and off and my tests were still positive but had an early scan because of the bleeding at 6 weeks .... Wasn't good for me I'm afraid but I got to 9 weeks withoit miscarrying so needed medical input!! Some women do bleed through normal pregnancies but def worth getting checked x

Chchchchangeabout · 16/03/2015 21:19

How are things, OP?

Chasmac · 17/03/2015 10:24

Sorry replied but my message has gone!
I spoke to a midwife friend who said they wouldn't do anything until 6 weeks anyway. Just wait it out. Cramping has stopped and bleeding is nearly stopping. So 3 days in total. Still have positive tests so don't know what to think. Feeling very emotional and down Hmm

Chadmac - I heard recently of a lady who though she has had cm but when she went to the hospital there was a heart beat and baby was fine. Sometimes these things just happen, keep positive, it might all be ok! X

Thankyou for replies......more bleeding today so feeling Hmm Trying to be optimistic! So fed up of waiting...2ww then waiting for Af then waiting for positive tests...now this and more waiting. Just wish I knew either way so can get on with this cycle.
Would I start counting my cycle from when I started bleeding?

Hiya chasmac, don't want to be a Debbie downer but I had a MC at 7 weeks and it was only really light bleeding, no cramps I was so sure everything was OK as only minimal bleeding but blood test showed hcg decreasing and still took me 4 weeks to get a negative test. Yes first day of bleeding is classed as cd1

Sorry you are going through this its horrible Sad

Chasmac · 17/03/2015 17:29

Thanks Ella. I think I know it's over Hmm Just want to crack on trying again...I had a fainter positive today so hopefully back to normal soon. Sorry for your loss it's so early but still so sad...
