Hey, I don't normally post but I just dont know what to do right now, so looking for a bit of advice.

I had the mirena coil in for 5 years. Had it removed on 16th August 2022. I started bleeding heavy on 18th August and that lasted for 6 days so I assumed that was AF instead of a withdrawal bleed from the Mirena.

Fast forward to 16th September 2022 and I got my BFP as I had so many symptoms and I just felt pregnant. Sore boobs, bloated, feeling sicky, daily headaches and a horrible metallic taste in my mouth.( this is/was my third pregnancy).

This morning (25/9/22) I started bleeding quite heavily. There have been some clots. Sorry tmi but some blood is really dark but the rest appears to be bright red, just like I would have with AF.

I have no idea if this has anything to do with whats happening right now but yesterday I went swimming with my other DD's and the wave machine came on. I made sure that the pressure of it was not on my tummy but I just have this guilty feeling thats its all my fault!!

Not sure what to do now. Don't think I can call EPU as I will only be 5+ 2 and I have read they wont really see anything (if something is still there) and have been reading that they advise people to wait another week and then see whats happening!? Do I call the doctors tomorrow and ask for a blood test?
Any advice or anyone with a similar story I would love to hear from you.Thank you x
