4w5d spotting and painful cramps

[Annabelle0852]

Hi ladies,

I know mumsnet doesn't replace seeing a doctor but I'm honestly just looking for other people's experiences.

I'm 4+5 with my first every BFP after 14 months trying.

This morning I started spotting. It's still there but has eased off from this morning. Only on a wipe after going to the toilet, nothing on a liner etc.

However since early evening I've been getting really bad cramps. In line with what I would consider when I have a bad period and they're particularly painful.

Given the spotting and now the pain I'm psyching myself up for bad news while my OH is trying to stay hopeful.

Does anyone have any GOOD experiences with these symptoms as the bad outcome is pretty obvious...

Thank you. ✨️

Can you take another pregnancy test? I had 2 chemicals in a row and they both unfortunately started like that but my pregnancy test was negative before it started as I was testing every day. In my last pregnancy I bled again on and off until 13 weeks and then it didn’t happen again and my pregnancy went to term. I’m almost 11 weeks pregnant now and have bled quite a few times but baby is still ok. Iv never had painful cramps though only the mild ones that I got every day in early pregnancy

When I was pregnant with my dc I had cramping early on, a bit like period pain.

I did worry but there was no need as dc is perfect!

Good luck.
