Sorry, I also meant to say Sweetbabydust1989, that when I had brown bleeding during my first pregnancy, I was told that brown is generally not a cause for concern. The result of that pregnancy is now 8 and a perfectly healthy child. 🤞 for you.

@sweetbabydust1989
Hold on in there I thought I could not do it again after each loss but you desire for a baby over rides the fear like I think what if the nxt one is successful, still praying its blood from the scan for you 🙏🤞🍀 but no matter what u will get through it girl us women r strong we will all get r rainbow babies in the end trust me xxx

Iworry2021 · 29/04/2021 08:03

Hi @TabbyCat92, if you know for sure when you ovulated and your period is late, there's a high chance you're pregnant. Apparently the 2nd phase of the cycle, the luteal phase, never really varies in length much. Did you temp this cycle? x

Tabbycat92 · 29/04/2021 08:06

Hi @Iworry2021 thanks for your reply 😊 no I didn't temp as didn't want the extra stress after the MC, but I did use LH strips and ovulation tests. I'm really hoping I am, as my husband and I were heartbroken after the mc. Im planning to test again tomorrow if AF hasn't shown, but I'm terrified of getting yet another stark white test

Tabbycat92 · 29/04/2021 08:07

@Iworry2021 I have been checking cervix positioning and it's currently so high I can't even reach it!

27DONFIN · 29/04/2021 08:16

@Sweetbabydust1989 thinking of you sending all the positives thoughts your way. Defo a lot of positives tho brown old blood and no cramps. Xx

kiwi17 · 29/04/2021 08:27

@Tabbtcat92 my first af after mc was quite a bit later than I expected and I really thought I was pregnant too but my luteal phase was exactly 14 days before af showed and my cervix was really low so fingers crossed for You!! 🤞🤞

Sweetbabydust1989 · 29/04/2021 08:34

Thanks so much ladies I feel ok today... I am keeping a close eye on I get so confused when they say spotting to me spotting is a spot of blood but they say bleeding is heavy blood like a period... I honestly don't no what happening it's still the same colour on the pad it's like a really dark red/brown colour.. would be nice for a positive with this but I am not convinced at all... oh my whole a&e and epu are a disgrace with my ectopic I got told in a a&e waiting room full of people that my baby was dying and to just go home I was mortified never felt so embarrassed in my life hence why I don't have much optimism for this outcome xx

Babyghirl · 29/04/2021 08:39

@tabbycat92
Where u tracking ovulation with ur temp cause with the opks it can be mixed results after a miscarriage can take a while for the pregnancy hormone to leave ur system and the opks pick the hormone up but fingers crossed its a new pregnancy for you but u can also get the surge ur about to ovulate then you don't then you will cycles can be abit messed up for a while after a loss to 💚

Sweetbabydust1989 · 29/04/2021 09:22

Update epu won't see me until tomorrow just told me to wait it out 😢 xx

Babyghirl · 29/04/2021 09:44

@sweetbabydust1989
It's cruel tbh but hopefully you go tomorrow and everything is good, as evil as it is they see it if it is not good news seeing u a day early won't change the outcome but seeing you the day of your app will give you an answer if you get me. Xxx

Sweetbabydust1989 · 29/04/2021 09:48

@Babyghirl 100% get what your saying I just kinda want to no what the blood is mine is dark red/brown like the old blood when you finish your period but I have no cramps at all I am just really hungry but tiered... I am going with an open mind tomorrow my mum bleeding with all of us she thought she was having a period... I had blood like this when my ectopic was naturally passing hence my anxiety of it all but I was in so much pain xx

Babyghirl · 29/04/2021 10:01

@sweetbabydust1989
With 2 of my losses it started with brown blood and they where pregnancy's in the urters so don't let that worry u. No pain is good and it could just be implantation blood that was destrubed from the scan and is now coming out but you can also get break through bleeding at different weeks look it up xx

Sweetbabydust1989 · 29/04/2021 10:13

@Babyghirl thanks lovely yeah I feel good it's weird... just checked my pad and it's still the same when I wipe nothing xx

Babyghirl · 29/04/2021 10:35

@sweetbabydust1989
Just try to rest and relax till tomorrow and hopefully you will have a clear answer I think it's the not knowing what's going on that upsets u more, I like to know what's happening to I can either relax or be prepared and start to look ahead xxx

Sweetbabydust1989 · 29/04/2021 13:50

@Babyghirl that's what I am doing work sorted out cover and told me to stay at home. Bleeding is still dark red but it's mostly when I wipe nothing much on the panty liner.. I am in no pain just keeping an eye on it really dreading the scan tomorrow it's funny as they said they could see a fluid looking thing by the scan so who knows what's happening inside sometimes I wish I could shove my head up there to see what's happening.. thanks for you support xx

Tabbycat92 · 29/04/2021 14:16

@Sweetbabydust1989 if they saw fluid on the scan is there a chance that it could be a subchorionic hemorrhage? Seems more common than I ever realised.

Sweetbabydust1989 · 29/04/2021 14:41

@Tabbycat92 oh really they saw what they called a sac like structure and said there was something else they could be fluid so no idea I was ok until the next morning when I saw the brown discharge and boom spotting.. I have a cervical erosion but that blood is usually bright red so didn't think it was that xx

Tabbycat92 · 29/04/2021 14:51

@Sweetbabydust1989 give it a google. I think that is often like old blood.

Sweetbabydust1989 · 29/04/2021 16:01

@Tabbycat92 thanks hunnie mine has gone like a pink/brown so confused xx

Babyghirl · 29/04/2021 19:40

@sweetbabydust1989
How r you hold up xx

Sweetbabydust1989 · 29/04/2021 20:32

@Babyghirl not too bad bleeding wise is still the same sometimes I wipe and there is nothing really on the loo roll I am not soaking panty liners so who knows.. scan tomorrow morning I am dreading it a lot of people said it's common but I am not sure is it ok to post a pic of my bog roll so you can see the blood iam not sure on it xx

Sweetbabydust1989 · 29/04/2021 20:43

Sorry ladies I hope this doesn't offend anyone just wanting your opinion on it regards to colour and amount this is generally what I am getting would this be classed as spotting?? Got a little mild cramps that come and go dreading tomorrow I am actually hoping the fluid they found is what's coming out and not my little one xx

Annny27 · 29/04/2021 21:00

@sweerbabydust1989 it looks a little more reddish but that's definitely still spotting if it's only when wiping

Not long untill tomorrow - whens your appointment?
