Have had very light but brown in colour and this morning it was watery and then dark brown the odd time. Getting scared and feeling extremely low at the momentSad
Called epu a few times this week and still keep on saying this is normal. Can't take much more😢

Hi. Just very little this morning. Nothing through the night. Done a test to see if my levels had dropped still saying 3+.
That's brilliant. I hope everything goes well!!!Xxx

That’s really positive. What tests are you doing @bub19?

I’ve not done a test since getting the positive test two weeks ago. Xxx

@blfsjm

Hadn't used one in about 2 weeks myself. I used the clear blue digital weeks indicator Xxx

Hi. Thanks for the message. Just got home. The doctor did an internal examination and cervix is closed and no bleeding at the moment. She also checked for ectopic pregnancy and doesn’t think the pregnancy is ectopic.

The doctor is referring me to the EPU - I think mainly due to my history of miscarriage. Otherwise she seemed pretty relaxed and told me to try and relax.

I feel slightly reassured in terms of ectopic pregnancy but I’m expecting the worst after last time.

Can you try contacting your EPU directly? Xxx

@blfsjm

That's brilliant news!
I have been calling them direct each time. Called again today and got told the same. This is normal for some women and if there is no bleeding then I'm fine and no need to be seen.Xxx

How are you now @bub19 ?

Try not to give up all hope. I've read lots of threads of people bleeding yet still having a successful pregnancy

@miamiibiza

Are you still spotting?

As hard as it is, just try to stay calm

bub19 · 05/01/2020 11:52

@miamiibiza

It's back to the dark brown spotting,but feeling light headed and sick. The dark spotting has been going on since xmas day.

This isn't right that they won't see you. Out of hours appt needed today, tell them you're in pain and blood lasting weeks. Just say you're not leaving until you're referred as you need them to rule out more sinister reasons for the bleeding. Is the pain more to one side?

bub19 · 05/01/2020 13:10

@ruralcat it's been brown since xmas day red earlier today. Cramps in tummy,uterus area and lower back. Feeling rotten.

How are you @bub19 ?
Been thinking about you.

bub19 · 06/01/2020 12:56

Hi @miamiibiza 😊

Wasn't feeling good at the weekend,had headaches,light headed and feeling sick along with the spotting. Went to doctors today,checked me over and my heart rate is border line raised. He said I could possibly be anaemic. He spoke to epu they still don't seem overly concerned,but I've to get a scan on Friday and my bloods done on Wednesday. Xx

I'll probably get flamed for this but with what you've described, I'd probably be elaborating to EPU and describing excruciating pains to them, in order to get a scan. Sometimes these things have to be done x

miamiibiza · 06/01/2020 13:17

I'm so glad they are going to scan you, just a shame it's not sooner 👎🏽
Keep your chin up

bub19 · 06/01/2020 15:10

@miamiibiza

I know,think the doctor must have convinced them. Trying to,hopefully everything will be okay🙏xx
