Miscarriage, where is the bleeding?

Hello, first time poster here. I got a positive pregnancy test (well two) on Wednesday 22nd Feb. So I left a urine sample in at the doctors on the Friday. Rang for the results on the Monday and the receptionist said to repeat it as they were very weak. Anyway, I did a home test again and the second line barely showed so left it at that.
Ive had cramping and bled last Thursday but only when I went to the toilet and a tiny bit on Saturday. Does a miscarriage take this long to start to come away? I’m worried since I’ve read about infections if it doesn’t all pass. Thanks in advance.

If it was a chemical pregnancy then you wouldn't bleed much more than a normal period. You could go along to the early pregnancy unit and ask them to check you over?

Thanks for your response. For me it was way way less than a normal period. Nothing on a pad or anything except a tiny bit the first day. I’ll keep an eye on it and if nothing happens I’ll have to get it checked. Thanks again.

For me I only bled lightly and it took almost 2 weeks before I actually started to bleed properly

I would take another pregnancy test just incase might just be taking some time but worth checking
