Early pregnancy bleeding

Hi guys, I know there is nothing anyone on here can do but I guess I’m just looking for reassurance or similar story’s. I’m about 4-5 weeks pregnant with my second baby. Clear blue weeks test shows 2-3 weeks and a bright blue line on the non digital. I had no idea I was pregnant until 2 days ago, I thought I was on my period as I have been lightly bleeding and spotting for around 2 weeks but started feeling sick and other symptoms so took some tests. I’m over the moon as we have been trying for around 8 months but I’m now worried as last night I started lightly bleeding again but bright red. I went to bed so that I wasn’t worrying all night and woke up to no fresh blood just brown spotting. Can this be normal or could this be the start of a miscarriage? No strong pains as such just light/dull aches and pains that I had with my first. I have been spotting lightly bleeding on and off for around 2 weeks but still testing clearly positive. Thank you in advance for any responses

I know it may not mean anything but my test is clearly positive! We’re holding onto hope!

I hope everything works out for you. Bleeding in pregnancy can be common, especially at this early stage. It can be implantation bleeding.

Sadly, 5 weeks ago I had a miscarriage at 6 weeks pregnant and my bleeding continually got worse from day 1 to day 5 before then lightening up for another 5 days. I also had very intense cramping.

So no pain and bleeding now gone could be a positive sign. Keep an eye on it. If it gets worse or pain starts on one side, get yourself seen.

I was seen by the Early Pregnancy Unit (EPU) after a referral from my GP.
