Cramping and spotting 5 weeks

TTCournumberthree · 30/10/2022 13:05

Crushed as I write this, had some cramps earlier which were very much like medium AF cramps. Lasted about 15 mins then went away, now a hour later I’ve some light pinkish/brownish spotting but cramps have completely gone.

I’m dreading the worst, last cycle I had a chemical at 4 weeks 3 days. Was just starting to get a little excited thinking lightening couldn’t strike twice. Any one have any similar experiences either good or bad? I’m anxious that as the spotting happened so soon after the cramping that it could end up being another loss but on the other hand I’d assume I’d still be cramping if it were?

@TTCournumberthree ahhhhhh fantastic!!! I'm so so pleased for you

I have a private scan Friday, but I keep wanting to cancel as I'm so so scared x

TTCournumberthree · 08/11/2022 13:59

@Moosh18 how far will you be?

I’ll be honest I was a complete nervous wreck today. I had a internal scan and I couldn’t stop shaking even after we saw the heartbeat but now I feel
so much better X

@TTCournumberthree that’s amazing news I’m so pleased for you! Lovely scan pictures too !!

@Moosh18 good luck for your scan too x

Moosh18 · 08/11/2022 15:01

@Wannabemo thank you! Do you know how far you are? Xx

Wannabemo · 08/11/2022 15:27

@Moosh18 no I have no clue really as I miscarried end of sept and haven’t had another period inbetween. Now I’m testing positive again, the spotting and cramp was the reason I took the test x

Moosh18 · 08/11/2022 15:37

@Wannabemo maybe get one of those weeks indicators, could be implantation bleeding? Have you tested negative since the Mc, I'm really sorry for your loss 😩😩

TTCournumberthree · 08/11/2022 15:52

@Wannabemo i had a chemical pregnancy end of September. Had a positive test the day of my missed period but then had my period arrive 3 days later and this pregnancy is that following cycle. You should maybe give your drs a call see what they recommend x

Hey ladies I called epu and they wanted me up this afternoon so I just got bloods took. See what they come back as, still slight cramps and spotting again it’s on and off x

Wannabemo · 08/11/2022 17:07

@Moosh18 I have one actually but the midwife told me at my last app during my miscarriage she doesn’t like them and said they are unreliable so I’m in two minds. I didn’t test negative but very faint on the 17th of oct the same day the scan to confirm complete miscarriage and all tissue had passed.
bloods done now so will await those results tomorrow x fingers and toes crossed x

TTCournumberthree · 08/11/2022 17:30

@Wannabemo hopefully those bloods come back quickly and you will know what’s happening x

bubble55 · 08/11/2022 18:11

Oh @TTCournumberthree im so pleased for you!! I had my scan too and saw the little heartbeat fluttering away. I’m 6w so we are so close! X

TTCournumberthree · 08/11/2022 20:41

@bubble55 little june babies! I really went in expecting the worst. It’s such a relief isn’t it x

100%. I burst into tears when she showed me the heartbeat. I’ve had bleeding tonight but it’s brown so I think the internal has moved some old blood around 😬

TTCournumberthree · 08/11/2022 21:48

@bubble55 yes definitely would have shifted any old blood. We were just dumbfounded that it was all ok, so excited though x

Hey All so epu called … I have no idea what any of this means and I was too nervous to even ask but she’s getting me back in tomorrow for repeat bloods.
Hormone level was 491 and progesterone 39. Something I can’t really remember !! I’m a nightmare I get too nervous plus I had my toddler at my ankles while bringing in the shopping 😂😂😂she said a new pregnancy though she thinks although has to see if the levels are rising or dropping. still spotting brown 🙃.

another day closer to finding out what the hell is going on.

Moosh18 · 09/11/2022 11:59

@Wannabemo that's good! It must be a new pregnancy! As 493 wouldn't show as a faint line that would be really strong line! Have you done another test? X

Wannabemo · 09/11/2022 12:27

Yes I just done the clear blue one with an actual dribble 😂😂 as I couldn’t wait any longer !!!

Cramping and spotting 5 weeks
Moosh18 · 09/11/2022 12:43

@Wannabemo aww so your probably between 4/5 weeks! Your spotting will just be implantation I bet xxx

Wannabemo · 09/11/2022 12:50

Oh really that’s fab! Very early days but promising signs. Just a bit worried as I miscarried only a few weeks back so all very raw. But hopefully this wee one wants to stick around to join the mad house 🥹🥹 very emosh x

TTCournumberthree · 09/11/2022 14:36

@Wannabemo I’ve no clue what the numbers mean but that’s definitely a good positive test!! I’ve got my fingers crossed for your next bloods x
