Hi ladies,

On 6th January I had a late miscarriage at 19 weeks. I bled for two weeks after but had what I thought was a normal period three weeks ago (one month afer the miscarrige).

My next period is due in 6 days, so on 7th March, assuming I had a 28 day cycle.

Problem is, I went for a wee yesterday morning and there was pale/pink blood on the toilet paper. I had a bit of red bleeding after than but it stopped after an hour or two. I wondered if it might be implantation bleeding (yes, we were stupid so soon after - I admit that and no we're not trying for another baby yet).

This morning I bled a tiny amount of red blood again but like yesterday it stopped after. This bleeding was definitely vaginal.

This evening I decided to do an early test as a friend said you could do a test two days after what you think might be an implantation bleed. It was negative as expected BUT in my urine there were lots of bright red blood clots. I'm certain the blood I lost yesterday and today wasn't from my bladder but the clots in the urine were, so what's going on? Why bleed very briefly two days in a row and have it stop both times? It's surely too early to be a period and too light, so could it be implantation bleeding to happen like this?

Anyone please? I'm still bleeding intermittently and don't understand what's going on. Worryingly I'm 9 DPO.

Hi OP. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Did you say the blood clots in your urine were from your bladder? If so, you def need to seek medical advice.

I had implantation bleeding with two of my pregnancies and in both cases it was a few pink spots, and definitely no clots.

I'm afraid I'm not sure what the cause might be, but is it possible that it's still your body recovering from your loss?

Sorry for your loss. I have no offerings for this but I would recommend you see your GP. Good luck xxx

im not so sure what's up and cant say this has happened to me. I found the menstruation returning whilst weaning LO was kind of odd. seemingly heavy normal then light. stop start. I don't understand the clots from urinating. I would suggest an appointment with an obstetrician or gp with experience in womens health. sometimes you can get infections down there. hormones during pregnancy is different. body could be adjusting. please get it checked

Thank you all for the repies. The intermittent bleeding is vaginal but the clots are passed in my urine. I'll ring my GP on Monday and see if I can get a same-day appointment. Thanks again
