I don't think anyone on here could fully confirm. Contact EPAU.

I'm sorry this is happening to you. It could be, or it could not be. You need to contact your EPU. Fingers crossed and a hand hold for you. Xx

With my first I had this, it happened in an airport 3 weeks before our wedding with our whole family arriving from Australia! We had been trying But I hadn't done a test, I assumed this was a miscarriage, tried to put it to the back of my mind and enjoy time with my family. A week later pregnancy symptoms kicked in and a test said Yes! I went to EPU and was told I was 6 weeks and had a viable pregnancy, but had 3 haematomas surrounding it. I had to have 3 more scans before 12 weeks as so much bleeding. But I went on to have a happy and healthy pregnancy. From memory, I even think my "clot" was bigger than this. So keep faith but please get checked asap xx

@Babyno2mamabear you've made my day - thank you i thought it would just be negative stories from this. I took a positive pregnancy test last week and it was a strong positive but this morning I got a very weak positive test (very very weak!) so that playing on my mind as well.

I will contact EPU they keep turning me away as I'm not actively bleeding and don't have pain at present. I will keep trying - thank you

Very pleased to hear your story was positive

That's Ok! Maybe just tell them that over night you've had bleeding and cramps and now you're even more worried, I know we shouldn't have to lie, but sometimes it's so hard to be seen. Alternatively if you can afford it then private scans are brilliant too. Xx

@Babyno2mamabear unfortunately too early in pregnancy for private! I think they are all 6 plus?

Ah yeah they probably are! Are you 100% sure of your dates?! I never ever was sure and used these early scans to actually date me as I had no clue due to such irregular periods xx

I had this and sadly it was a miscarriage for me, scan confirmed it a couple of days later and more clots and tissue came away. You just don’t know though, some woman can bleed really heavily and still be pregnant. It could be a clot from something else. But I must admit the weakening of the line on the test doesn’t sound great either, was it a different brand or the same? I hope all works out ok x

I'm sorry you're going through this :(

If there was just bleeding I'd say it's impossible to know, but if your tests are getting weaker unfortunately this may have been a chemical pregnancy or indicate you will miscarry (your HCG should double each day, so tests should get stronger). I'd ring doctors and see if they can scan you asap/give advice.

Hugs and best wishes
