2 days of brown spotting and occasional red streak?

Hello.

I found out I was (unexpectedly) pregnant last Tuesday. A clearblue digital on Wednesday said 1-2 weeks.

On Saturday morning I started spotting brown blood with some red spots/streaks through it. I've had some very mild cramping/aches and mild backache but I had that before I found out too.

Spotting continued on Sunday (yesterday) but was even lighter. I haven't needed a pad at all, I did wear one on Saturday and Sunday but there was absolutely nothing on either at the end of the day.

Today I haven't had the slightest bit of spotting. Haven't worn a pad at all.
I took a pregnancy test at about 2:30-3pm and it was a clear positive result.

Does this sound like a miscarriage? I can only estimate how far along I was/am by going by the clearblue digital as I was on cerazette. I had a stomach/vomiting bug which I believe caused the pill to fail.

What do you think?
Thank you x

Spotting was only ever when I wiped, there was never anything on my pants or anything.

Congratulations Smile

It's really hard to say if it's a mc or not. Spotting this early on is very common.

Best invest in a private scan at around 6-7 weeks or see if your gp will refer you.

Best of luck and lots of sticky baby dust Thanks

Aww thanks Allisgood :)

I think I'm just going to hang on for a bit, I'm not in pain or anything so waiting can't be a bad thing. I thought I might just wait and see? The only symptom of pregnancy I have is being just sooooo exhausted!! I had a 4 hour nap today 10:30-2:15 (nearly 4 hours), and I'm ready for bed again already.

Fingers crossed, trying not to get my hopes too far up just in case xx

It's over, I tested negative today. Definitely miscarried.
