Early pregnancy - Has this happened to anyone else?

I’m nearly 6w pregnant from my estimation and about 5 days ago i came home from my 10hr shift at work and laid down on my sofa to rest.
I started to experienced some mild cramping that didn’t last for long and wasn’t extremely painful of anything, I sat up after a couple of minutes just to grab something to eat and felt a gush of blood.
I ran to the toilet and wiped a load of red blood away (gross I know, I’m sorry) but there wasn’t any clots and the cramping and blood stopped within 10 minutes..
I did carry on light bleeding pinkish blood for a couple of days after but that’s it.
5 days after that and I still feel pregnant, still getting pregnancy symptoms and still showing a positive pregnancy test, so I’m hoping nothings wrong but just needing some reassurance or some idea of what this could be..
Can anyone help?
Has anyone else experienced this?

Just an update- I finally contacted the EPU this morning, they have booked me in for Friday for a scan, which is good. They did say to me that they normally would rather have people to go to the gp first to get checked out unless you’ve had problems in the past (which I have) but other than that it’s all booked so I’m just wishing for the best now!

Friday? But it’s only Monday. Did you explain what had happened?

Nss95 · 17/09/2018 12:18

@Wolfiefan I did but they said the earliest they can scan is when your atleast 6w and my dates are between the 6th-10th of August for my last period which would mean Friday I’d almost definitely be 6 weeks. I’m just glad it’s booked to be fair but I’ve never been so anxious in my life...

Such a worrying time. I understand. Two kids but also had a mmc and an early mc.
At least you have it booked in. Wishing you well.

Is it normal to have yellow discharge but no bad smell while 6 weeks pregnant

Wolfiefan · 17/09/2018 14:30

@Laura19994
Perhaps you should start your own thread or contact your midwife if you have multiple concerns.

Gobletoffire · 17/09/2018 16:06

@laura19994 yes yellow discharge is normal, I had it very early on, but like a previous poster has said you will get a much better response from people on a new thread on the pregnancy forum.

Hey guys! Update time- Everything’s ok, babies got a heartbeat and is doing fine, there’s just a bit of blood underneath him which is being pushed out as he grows but they said it’s nothing to worry about.
Another surprise is that I’m actually 8 weeks pregnant and not 6 weeks. I’m so glad everything’s ok. Thankyou guys for all your help and support!! So happy Xx

Great news. You must be so happy.

DannyWallace · 21/09/2018 12:08

Ah that's fantastic new OP ❤️❤️

ApplestheHare · 21/09/2018 16:45

Fantastic news!!! ❤❤❤

What a lovely update all round, I'm so happy for you OP.x

Nss95 · 22/09/2018 03:45

I am very happy! Still massively nervous and slightly scared.. got a few people to tell now. They said to expect more bleeding and to expect to possibly pass a big clot but its nothing to worry about atall. I don’t know why I referred to the baby as “him” and”he” either btw. Obviously I have no idea what gender the baby is, my heads pretty all over the place atm though so I’ll use that as an excuse haha!
