Hi all,
I’ve never posted before so hopefully in the right place. I’ve found mumsnet really helpful while going through this so made the decision to join and seek advice.
Me and DH have been trying to conceive for 6 months, 2 weeks ago on 24/2/21 I had to come home from work due to really bad stomach cramps, just thought I had a bug but that weekend started with some light bleeding pink/brown discharge. As AF was due 2/3 I decided to take a Test which was positive (took a second one to be sure) so I figured implantation bleeding and was over the moon. Due to still cramping though I contacted GP who said it sounded like an early miscarriage and to take a test every 2 days. By the Wednesday I was bleeding more heavily and bad cramps testing still positive. It varied a lot that week between light and heavy bleeding sometimes just pink when I wiped (sorry for the tmi) and sometimes black/dark red with small clots. As still testing positive on clear blue 8/3 I was sent to WHU for a scan. Internal scan was done and no sign of pregnancy, test at hospital also negative even though clear blue that morning was positive. Sent home and told as bleeding had stopped looked like early miscarriage at 5 weeks. I’ve been really emotional and sad but was glad the physical symptoms had gone. However I was in agony last night unable to sleep with cramps and had bled a lot this morning getting progressively worse through the day with bad cramps where I can barely stand up, passing clots and having to change pads about every hour. I rang WHU back for advice and was told ‘snuggle up with a hot water bottle it’s probably your period’. I just wondered if this was normal to get the period so close or if I should be worried.
