Im looking for anyone that can share my experience. I am 5,4 following a miscarriage 7 weeks ago. I lost previously at 5,2.
Ive been having strange pains, i have cramping around my pelvic bones and it travels into my thighs. This morning i started to bleed brown pinky blood and I rang EPC but they cant see me till thur.
Has anyone else had a successful pregnancy after experiencing something similar. I dont want to go through another miscarriage 😣 x

I had this around 6 weeks I had a blood test, a scan then and a scan 2 weeks later. I couldn't see much on the first scan but the second scan was okay. 19 weeks now so everything was okay. Cramping early on is normal as long as it's not excruciating / causing alot of pain. I had pink/brown clotty bleeding it went after about 4 days x

I've been fortunate enough to not experience a miscarriage but just to reassure you that I had bleeding at 6 weeks (brown/pink as you describe that then became red) and I'd been having the odd period-like cramp. I went to EPU and all was ok, I think some amount of period cramping sensation is normal for that stage as long as it's not really bad if that makes any sense? Hope your scan on Thursday goes ok xx

I've found that I don't stop worrying about the baby no matter what! Everything has been fine since then but I still worry. Try to take your mind off it until it's your appointment Flowers

I have 4 children but have also experienced miscarriages.

My first & second pregnancy I miscarried around 6 weeks, my 3 rd pregnancy I had early bleeding around 6weeks but all was ok and I have my eldest daughter, 4th pregnancy my other daughter, 5th pregnancy - miscarried a twin early around 8weeks but other twin was ok - my 3rd daughter.
6th pregnancy - ectopic
7th pregnancy - again lost a twin around 8 weeks but the other twin was fine and had my son.

Stay positive op xx

Update: yest I started to bleed really badly, I was seen in the EPC and they confirmed baby was in place and they measured me at 6,1. Was to early to see a fetal pole or a heart beat yet but midwife wasnt concerned. Still really nervous and will be seen again in 2 weeks time

I've noticed bleeding around 5/6 weeks is common as I see alot of posts and also experienced this myself. Don't get worked up things very well might be okay. I know you feel in the danger zone in the first couple of weeks but try not to worry. Keep yourself well rested, don't do too much no lifting and maybe take a couple of days from work. The doc signed me off for a week and said I wouldn't be doing anything but resting as it's better for the child
