hey!

I have had 2 miscarriages previously at a very early stage like I've done a test and couple days later I've miscarried that's how early.
anyway thankfully this pregnancy has lasted 10 weeks however from 8 weeks I have been bleeding.
sorry if its TMI but my first bleed was when when my knickers was full of which looked like a watery bleed with lots of discharge
since then I have had very minimal bleeding (light pink) only when I wipe.
my coccyx is absolutely killing me and I get a sharp shooting pain in the middle of my lower stomach like under my stomach which lasts a couple a seconds.
I had a scan when I was 9 weeks and 3 days so literally last monday
my cervix was closed baby was fine with a positive heartbeat but they saw a trace of blood in my uterus away from baby outside of the sac if that makes sense.
so I was told they don't know what the bleed is however it could be a threatened misscarriage.
they gave me pessaries (progesterone) medication just to help boost my ovaries.
should I be worried? should I book another scan in do u think? I have my 12 week scan on the 13th x

Bleeding is so common in early pregnancy, I had a bleed at about 6 weeks, but I'm 13 weeks now, had a scan at 10 weeks and yesterday and all looking good, they couldn't find any reason for the bleeding and said it just happens sometimes. Just rest up and take it easy, if you're worried call the EPU xx

Thankyou hun
Yeah I’ve been told to bed rest as much as I can so I’ve took time off work until I have my next scan on the 13th hoping everything is well.
Glad everything is well with yourself! Xx

It's good news that you've had a scan already. I presume they saw a heartbeat ect?

Fingers crossed for you!

Yes when I went to EPU they examined me and saw my cervix was closed but doc wanted to be sure baby was okay so he asked for an internal scan to be done which is where they ruled out a trace of bleed in my uterus. To be honest I was like I’m not bothered about myself just tell me my baby is okay and she was happy with how baby’s heart was beating and it’s measurements xx

That's good news!
Fingers crossed for you!
It was reassuring for me to read after my scan that 80% of pregnancies continue when a heartbeat has been seen

Awww glad it was reassuring for you
I just want the 13th the hurry so I can see if baby is okay
I have thought about going for a private scan but if something is wrong they won’t be able to tell and I don’t wanna get my hopes up when going for my hospital scan! Aaahhh the nerves!!

I'm not sure how much they will tell you but they will certainly tell you if they can't find a heartbeat
