Am I having a miscarriage?

[JASB]

Hi I am new to this but need some help...it is Sunday morning and I have bad cramps and some dark/pinkish discharge but not bleeding as such...I am 5+4 weeks pregnant....x

I'm sorry to hear you're getting these symptoms and are worried.

At that stage of pregnancy, cramps can be normal and due to stretching etc. Spotting is also very common in pregnancy and needn't mean miscarriage.

However, these symptoms also could be the beginnings of a miscarriage.

If you are worried or the pains get very bad, call NHS direct or the out of hours doctor.

I do hope you get no more bleeding and the cramps ease up.

youtalkingtome thank you so much for replying...I am hoping to see my doctor in the morning so I suppose will try and rest today and keep my fingers tightly crossed - can't help feeling mis...

Oh it's awful, I've been there a few times.

There's no point me saying try to relax or 'time will tell' etc. Of course that's true but I know how hard it is.

Time will pass however, and things will work out one way or the other. I hope in your case all is well. Let us know how you get on.

You poor thing . As pp's have said, it could well be fine. I had cramping and bleeds in both my healthy pregnancies. I have also had miscarriages.

I hope the news is good for you

Hi JSAB, I think we're in the same boat here, same symptoms (cramps/slight bleeding). Petrified/confused but trying to stay positive. Was diagnosed with having a UTI last week and can't help but think it has something to do with what is going on now. I hope all is well with you tomorrow at the docs xx
