Spotting and bleeding

Hi, I could do with some advice please. My last period was 15th July, it was two weeks late. Since last Wednesday I have been spotting, ranging from clear discharge with streaks of blood, brown, light brown and pink. It was on and off until yesterday (Tuesday). I had sore boobs a week before and had white spots around nipples, veins were prominent. The occasional stomach cramp whilst spotting but nothing big, the spotting was only visible when I wiped, I used a pad twice and there was nothing on it at all. Yesterday I had severe back and stomach cramps so I assumed it was my period. I am no longer spotting, more bleeding but its not a normal bleed I'd expect to see from my period, its like a browny red colour, more red than brown I guess but it doesn't look like new blood and there is quite a lot of mucus/discharge mixed with it. I am using a sanitary towel but there is barely anything on it, again nothing like what I'm used to with my normal period. The stomach cramps and back discomfort are pretty bad today, lots of tensing feeling in my lower abdomen. I have done a pregnancy test and they have come back negative. Can anyone help me please.

Hey, sounds like you’re quite confused about your cycle, I hate that feeling of not knowing your own body.

When did you take your last pregnancy test?

I suppose your either having a funny cycle or a chemical pregnancy??

I had a chemical/missed miscarriage last month which sounds quite similar to what your experiencing. My first bleed wasn’t late and I didn’t test positive but it was different and full pf mucus. The second bleed was 10 days later , after a positive test. It started off as spotting and then became heavier and darker and finally was blood red.

It could be that you were pregnant and had a two part miscarriage like myself, but because the pregnancy wasn’t viable from the start there was never enough hcg for a test to pick up....

That would be my guess anyway, Are you ttc? If so I hope your cycle returns to normal pronto! It’s the not knowing where your at that’s worst.

Best of luck! X
