Bleeding at 6 weeks- could it be a miscarriage

Hi I’m 6 weeks after having IVF. I’ve been spotting on and off very lightly past 5 days and went for scan and they said everything seemed okay and they thought it was implantation bleeding. However today I started bleeding (bright red blood). It was enough to fill one pad. The bleeding stopped very quickly but turned to spotting again. I have had 2 miscarriages at 6 weeks previously. Currently taking cyclogest vaginally and oestrogen pills as part of ivf transfer protocal. Would appreciate if anyone can tell me whether this is abnormal and most likely signifies a miscarriage. Positive and negative stories welcome. Thank you

It's impossible to know, I'm afraid. A third of women will bleed in pregnancy, and there will be a range of experiences within that. Equally, I have had quite a few miscarriages and didn't bleed with any so ended up with the surgery.
Fingers crossed for you.
