Early loss advice

Hi ladies. Sadly I think I am about to miscarry. Roughly 5 weeks pregnant. Had some mild pain and spotting red this week. EPU took bloods last week and hcg increased 48 hours but didn't double. My progesterone level is 14 - is this low? No cramps or pain but feeling so tired and nauseous. Just wanted to know anyone else's experiences of an early loss as I really dont know what to expect and if the bleeding will be longer than a normal period? Thank you😔❤️

Hey, so sorry you are going through this. I’ve had 2 successful pregnancies and 3 early miscarriages.
with my last successful pregnancy I had a little spotting and quite a few cramps in the early days so don’t write it off just yet.
keeping everything crossed for you x

Thank you so much for replying and so sorry for your losses. EPU have said unlikely to be viable as hormone not doubling in 2 days but really hoping for a small miracle nonetheless🙏❤️

Hey, so I think I am in the same boat.

Cramping and light bleeding. Haven't got a scan till next Monday, so just a waiting game 😔

@herewegoagain123456 so sorry to hear you are going through this too 😔 The waiting is so worrying and draining. Have you had a blood test? My bleeding has got a bit heavier over the last couple of days and period like pains with my pregnancy symptoms stopping xx

Oh it's horrible. Just can't get excited at all. I rang epu today and they have got me in for a scan on Thursday just to see what's happening.

Bleeding had turned brown and only when I wipe. So don't have a clue what's going on. They are going to do me a scan every 2 weeks to check depending how things go.

That 2 week wait takes forever though.

@herewegoagain123456 very best of luck for your scan. Brown blood fingers crossed nothing to worry about but know that is easier said than done❤️

I had an early loss at 5 weeks and it was no different to a normal period for me.
