After 3 miscarriages I’m pregnant again

After 3 miscarriages I’m pregnant for the third time in the last year. I worked out I would be 5 wks 5 days. I started spotting on Friday, pink fluid, only when I wiped once, then some brown discharge, followed by a little bit of spotting. I’m a wedding photographer and on my feet all day when I do weddings- this is when the spotting started- but it could have nothing to do with it?

I had a scan yesterday and there was a yolk sac - no pole or baby yet. They measured me at just under 5 weeks. They said they were happy with what they saw. I have to go back for a scan in two weeks. I’m just so scared I’m going to start heavy bleeding in the meantime- I don’t know if I’m being paranoid but my boobs don’t seem as full and I’m not constantly needing the toilet anymore. Any experiences/advice positive or negative (want to prepare myself) would be most helpful to get me through these two weeks. Thank you

Hi @1stimeMum2b congratulations!

Sorry to hear about your miscarriages. I too have had 3 miscarriages. When I got pregnant again I was put on baby aspirin 75g, high dose folic acid 5mg and progesterone straight away. It seems to be working so far, which seems like a miracle because this is the furthest I've been. I would get on them asap, speak to your GP, they might be reluctant but don't be fobbed off. Good luck

Thank you they have said if everything goes as it should after the next scan they will put me on progesterone and I have already started folic acid and aspirin 🤞x
