Hello

Again I’m posting on behalf of my friend. She’s currently 5 weeks pregnant after a year trying to conceive. Due to her health issues she staggered Fragmin injections given by her consultant yesterday and today she’s started bleeding she says it’s not as heavy as a period but more than spotting and Was bright red and is now like a brown colour. She called 111 and they advised they can’t do scans over the weekend. I wondered If anyone had anything similar and could give any reassurance for her?

Early pregnancy bleeding can be common OP and the sad reality is she won't know if it's ok for a few days or more. It's really too early for her to get a scan, they won't be able to see anything conclusive. I've had bleeding at 6 weeks with DD and also had bleeding in two other pregnancies which were losses. Could only suggest she takes a pregnancy test in a few days if the bleeding continues.
