Miscarriage or Subchorionic heamatoma?

Hi everyone,

I'm currently 7 weeks 2 days pregnant and had a scan last week at 6 weeks which showed a good heartbeat.
Tonight, I went to the loo and noticed a massive gush of blood which turned the toilet bowl red. It's as if I've suddenly come on my period out of nowhere. I don't have any pain at all so to say this was a surprise is an understatement.
I've had two previous miscarriages so I am now taking aspirin, heparin injections and progesterone.
Has anyone ever had this happen to them and everything turned out ok? I can't get checked until tomorrow but I'm totally freaking out. I was so hopeful after such a good scan last week. I can't understand how this has happened?

Thank you.

Yes, I bleed heavier than any period with huge blood clots in my last pregnancy. Was on and off between 4-16 weeks. No pain at all.
That baby is now about to turn 3.
My hospital eventually realised it was a polyp causing the bleeding but for weeks kept telling me it must be a heamatoma.
Can you go to your EPU today for a check?
Hope it goes okay.

Thank you. Really hoping it's a similar outcome for me. It's now turned to brown spotting and only there when I wipe.

I had a similar gush of bleed at week 8-9, but I was really shocked by it and went to the A&E as the EPU was on the other side of the town. They had a look at a cervix, it was closed, which was a slight reassurance and got a scanning booked in with EPU a few days later.

It turned out all right for me, I am on week 27.

Similar here...
I am currently 8 weeks pregnant as per LMP and 7 weeks from the CRL and scans.
4 days ago I began to have brown discharge without any pain. Naturally got worried as I've not had this with my first child. Booked a private scan and been told they can't identify the source but the baby is doing well with a strong heartbeat and growing.
2 days ago I started bleeding, its only when I wiped but red blood and small clots.
Booked another scan and been told again on Wednesday that everything looks okay.
Thursday afternoon comes and I pass a large cherry size clot dark red, maybe even bigger than a cherry. No pain whatsoever, bit of a pale pink fluid came out with it in the loo. I felt it but it was completely painless.
I had mild bleeding for a few hours after (only when wiping mostly not filling any pads) and today (Friday) absolutely no blood at all! All gone. I do have a scan booked for Monday 10am which seems like a long wait but I am just wondering if there could be an explanation for the symptoms rather than worst case scenario..... Open to everyone's thoughts and thank you!
