5 weeks and bleeding

[Wifelife]

Hello,

I’m 5+2 weeks pregnant, first ever pregnancy and on Saturday I had a bleed when wiping, it was bright red and more than spotting but no clots or pain and nothing since then - I called 111 who made me an appointment with out of hours who then made me an appointment for an early scan tomorrow morning - none of them seemed overly concerned or sympathetic to my worry which hasn’t helped, so I’m wondering if anyone has any positive stories with this sort of thing?

I’m absolutely petrified, this is our first pregnancy after 7 months TTC with very irregular cycles and I’m just so panicked it’s all ending.

The bleed itself (sorry TMI) happened after straining (feeling quite constipated) and I don’t know why but before I wiped I just knew there would be blood...

Since then I feel like some of my symptoms are fading but I don’t know if that’s all in my head and my worry has taken over, still tender breasts and going to the loo a lot but I just have this awful dread.

So if anyone has any positive stories I would really appreciate them ...

It is tough isnt it wifelife even with a scan as good as you can get at this stage it is still hard to not worry.

@Wifelife yes, I found them to be very non committal too... as you say, just some reassurance would be good. It's the vagueness that does my head in. When the bleeding tapers off I feel positive that tomorrow will be ok, and then when I have a red bleed the next time I go to the loo I think the worst again.

Having all the miscarriage information plastered about isn't too helpful 😕 I feel sorry for the lady who you said was in floods of tears, having all the literature around must be horrible if you've received bad news.

Hi I am new to this .. I found out on 6/3/19 that I am pregnant was very excited I had bleeding the next day very light spotting pinkish in colour then over the next few days had bleeding on and off went to see the doctor he explained if I had any pain of clots then I’d probably miscarried the bleeding stopped completely by Sunday and never had any pain or clotting did a pregnancy test on Monday and the line was very dark compared to the other tests so I was feeling more hopeful have done another test this morning (all clear blue which state the line can be as light or dark this still means your pregnant) and the line is really feint again . Am booked in to see my doctor on Monday coming and I am now panicking as the line is not as dark as it was on Monday I am (if pregnant ) around 5/6 weeks I had a normal pregnancy with my son who is 12 and had a miscarriage about 5 years ago with no bleeding but a lot of pain I keep doing tests almost daily and driving myself mad does anyone have any thoughts or any glimmer of hope I’m going crazy and can’t relax which I know isn’t good for the baby any advice thoughts would be appreciated many thanks Hollie xx
