Threatened miscarriage?

Bit of a rant post and seeking some comfort.
I’m on holiday and we found out I was pregnant just before flying. I’m now between 5 and 6 weeks.

Ive been having mild cramping and twinges, bad wind and burping, morning sickness.

Last night has a spot of brown blood on the tissue when wiping but thought nothing of it as it was so tiny. This morning woke up with a hot feeling in my belly similar to when I come on to period and there was pink in the toilet bowl. When wiping I’ve seen red and now I’ve been to toilet again I’ve passed black clots.

I’m so beside myself and been crying because I feel stupid I got so happy about being pregnant. I’ve now got mild cramping and feeling pretty sorry for myself and DH. I’m tucked up in bed and googling symptoms and people who’ve gone through similar something crazy. I did take a digital and standard pregnancy test and both are pregnant, the line on the standard test was a dye stealer.

I have a viability scan booked for Monday when we’re home but am I silly to still go? I can never get hold of GP when at home and my booking appointment with the midwife isn’t till 27th May. I’m hoping it’s not a miscarriage and maybe just a haematoma (DH has been googling and is convinced but not sure if he’s just trying to be strong for me).

has anyone gone through similar and gone on to have successful scans and happy babies?

Personal opinion: if you've booked a private scan cancel it and go through EPAU. I did the exact same, i thought i was around 7 weeks and they said i had a perfect sac growing. I started bleeding further and went to EPAU and was told they shouldnt have told me that when essentially the sac was breaking down and i wasnt actually 7 weeks i was 5.
When you get home, please speak to your GP and get referred to EPAU. sending you love 💐
