Hi I posted in conception after taking a positive test on Saturday. On Sunday I started bleeding and cramping through into Monday and by Monday afternoon it had settled to spotting and has been on and off spotting since. I too another test and got a slightly darker line too. Had bloods taken today to be repeated on Thursday before early pregnancy will see me. Any success stories please? I am 5 weeks and 2 days should the line be darker than this?

My lines were never much darker than this and I had bleeding a good few times in the first trimester. Both my babies are sleeping soundly in bed. I know it's easier said than done but sit tight until the blood tests. Fingers crossed for you OPThanks

My lines were darker but I too had horrible spotting mainly brownish tmi sorry. I honestly thought at a couple of points it was all over. Everything turned out fine though and baby safely here now.
Bleeding doesn’t always mean the worst particularly if it’s not bright red and not too heavy (light pink - dark brown, every chance things are ok). Are you low progesterone? I used progesterone cream and supplement and spotting cleared up in 3 weeks. X

Darker lines as time goes on are a good sign it means your hCG (pregnancy hormone) levels are rising which is meant to happen in early pregnancy x

Bleeding stayed settled but just had quite a gush of blood when I went to the toilet. I've not had any clots though. I'm so confused and upset. I just don't know what to think 😭 beginning to think I'm not going to have a happy ending

@RaindropDreams How are you getting on? Has the bleeding subsided? Fingers and toes crossed x

RaindropDreams · 22/08/2019 08:02

Yes I'm getting nothing now and no pain. Back at the doctors for bloods today. Keeping everything crossed x

Hcg was 17 which is very low, she's repeated the bloods just because she says you never know. Just feel so devastated right now 😭😭 x
