Hi everyone, just looking for any advice you may have please whilst I wait for a call back from the EPU.

I had my 3rd miscarriage in December.
My period seemed to return to normal again in February.

On 6th March I took a pregnancy test and got a very faint positive line. I estimated I would have been around 12dpo.

The next morning I took another and got a faint positive line again.

On 8th March I had awful cramps all day, it felt the same as when I was miscarrying and that evening I started bleeding. It was the day AF was due. I just assumed that was that, it's either a chemical pregnancy or maybe false positives from a faulty batch of FRER.

The bleeding lasted a week as my period usually does.

On 20th March I started spotting. It's dark red, sometimes stringy, sometimes an orangey colour - sorry TMI! I've never experienced this before so I'm a little confused. I'm wearing a pad but it's generally clean and I'm only getting blood when wiping.

I'm waiting for a call back to discuss with the EPU but thought I would ask in here to see if anyone has experienced the same?

I've got no pain, I haven't taken another pregnancy test but maybe that's what the EPU will suggest. It just seems strange to have had a week of bleeding, a week of no bleeding, then to start spotting again.

Thanks in advance! X

Just to update, I've spoken with the EPU. They have said they won't scan before 7 weeks pregnant and based on my period in February I would only be 6 weeks. Their advice is to wait until I'm no longer bleeding and take another test a week after.

I'm so fed up :(
