It's really very common. Happened to me and dh is currently pacing up and down with our 5 week old dd!

You'll get a mixture of stories here, some positive, some negative. The best thing to do is contact your GP or midwife and let them know what's happening, they'll advise you.

Best of luck Thanks

I haven't even had chance to go to drs yet I just have a bin full of positive tests lol im hoping its not nothing seriouse as ive had a mc before and this just feels different. it is quite a lot of blood tho but not soaking through pads quickly.

Happened to me too with DC2 and all was well. As TeenageMutant said call your gp tomorrow morning and you will probably be referred to the epu (early pregnancy unit) where they will scan you.
Don't want to get your hopes up but no pain/cramps or clots is a good sign.

Good luck Thanks

thankyou ill go drs tomoz. im not sure they will see anything on scan as its very early days. I think the bleeding is slowing down. I have the usual pregnancy pains but miscarriage pain is more like period pain isn't it.

This happened to me at about 8 weeks, it was bright red spotting and more when wiping. I went to GP and EPU and all was fine- as previous posters have mentioned it is surprisingly common. I didn't have any pain but it continued to come back (very small amounts) every now and again for the next few weeks.
I really hope all goes well for you tmrw and it is good news.

so I went for my appointment today. I have miscarried Sad but I just gotta kbo (keep buggerin on!!) I don't know how to feel I feel a bit lost. my OH actually cryed ive never seen him cry he says we can try again. I dnt know whens best to start trying?? I fell in love with this baby as soon as I saw the positive test, I imagined holdin a soft warm little baby and never letting go. I feel like I cant show my true feelings to anybody ive always been the strong one even when I don't want to be, I want to be the one that needs somebody not the shoulder that everybody needs, truth is I feel like ive lost someone that ive known my whole life not just a few weeks

I am so so sorry Soph.

There's nothing much anyone can say that will make you feel better but give yourself time to grieve.

Thinking of you and your dh Thanks

soph123kay · 14/08/2014 22:50

thankyou for your kind words. xxx

Oh Soph I'm so sorry to hear this Sad Thanks

Be really kind to yourself - you don't always have to be the strong one.

Hi Soph I know this is a horrible time for you and I can't imagine the sense of loss for you and your dh, it sounds harsh but really try and focus on the positive side which is that you are able to get pregnant, and one day soon you will have your baby. My bf had 4 mc between her two bubbas and there was no explanation for this awful occurrence. I am keeping my fingers crossed for you in the future x
