9 weeks but bleeding

Hi, I am 9 weeks pregnant and started bleeding last Wednesday went to the EPU for them to do my blood said my bloods was 57,000HGC level which is normal so they've booked me in for a scan on Tuesday 10th but I'm still having like a light period & today when I went to the toilet I had a thick tissue clot I can post a photo I'm scared this is a miscarriage, can anyone give me some positive hope 😩😢

I had bleeding right through until about 30 weeks, clotting and lots of "bits" that looked very similar. Scans all indicated it wasn't coming from the baby and I went to on to deliver a very healthy now teenager!

Thinking of you and hoping all goes well Flowers

It looks and sounds similar to my miscarriage and the pressure and then it suddenly stopping once things had passed

I hope you have good news at your scan tomorrow but would prepare yourself just incase xx

The only concern is my morning sickness has gone completely 😬

This happened to me. I didn't realise at the time just thought it had stopped luckily x

GoT1904 · 09/01/2023 14:04

I really, really hope that it's not bad news for you. But I agree with PP to brace yourself. Will you make sure to update us after your scan?

Yeah nhs is struggling and it seems less than 12 week they wait and see what happens usually. Don't think it's uncommon sadly x

pottyproblems87 · 09/01/2023 14:55

I hope it'll be okay. I had heavy bleeding in both my pregnancies. 1st pregnancy it stopped by 13 weeks. 2nd pregnancy I had intermittent bleeding all the way through but it calmed down by 18 weeks.

I carried both to full term & have 2 healthy boys.

elleh2023 · 09/01/2023 15:49

Fingers crossed all is okay tomorrow for you

StampOnTheGround · 09/01/2023 15:51

I had something exactly like your picture (if not bigger!) at around 9 weeks and my crazy 9 month old is now walking between furniture around the living room as we speak! 😊 just thought I'd throw a positive story at you OP, hope all goes well tomorrow x

pippabg · 09/01/2023 16:38

Oh gosh, this must be so hard having to wait for something so important! I would be a mess, I'm so sorry you're going through it. I really hope the result is good tomorrow. I would have been concerned by the clot, but also I think it's reassuring that you've not bled much since. Even a 5 week loss had lots of blood for me.

Emmamoo89 · 10/01/2023 12:38

How did your scan go? I hope it went okay x

It looked like what I passed that was all.

Sending you lots of love xx

I’m so heartbroken for you… sending love.

Kate120 · 10/01/2023 13:40

Hey OP, just wanted to say I’m so so sorry. I went through the same thing about 3 years ago, similar issues to you and then found out baby’s heart had stopped beating when we went for the 12 week scan. It’s so devastating. Glad to hear you have support from your husband. Definitely reach out to miscarriage support group in your area if you think it might help to talk xx
