Hello

I found out 8 days ago I was pregnant after trying around 5 months. Tests were getting stronger and I got a 2-3 week digital result on Saturday at 4+1.
I’ve had sore boobs, cramping, low appetite. Weird taste in my mouth.
Yesterday i urgently needed to wee, afterwards I wiped and there was the tiniest spec of blood on the tissue. I wiped again harder and got two wipes of pink diluted blood.
I’ve had no more for 24 hours except two tiny dots last night when I wiped hard to see if anything was still there.
Ive got cramps that aren’t horrific but feel like period cramps, uncomfortable and an unsettled stomach. I have back pain and hip pain - more discomfort than pain actually. And some in my ribs and the top of my back!
I am very windy already so think some of the pain is from wind but it’s so hard to tell.
i know it’s too early to see the early pregnancy unit so guess I thought I would post here

Attached a photo of my test from this morning and it is still a decent line

Hey, sorry you're going through this, it's hell.. but it sounds positive and more like an implantation bleed or irritation rather than anything sinister!
I had horrible period like cramps between 4-6 weeks on and off.
I also had spotting daily from 5 weeks until 11 weeks.
Saw the baby at 5+6 and 7+4 and all was fine.
I'm 11+1 today, and waiting for my scan on the 5th 🤞
With my daughter i had severe heavy bleeding from weeks 6-10, no cramps that I can remember though.
The cramping can be totally normal, as can bleeding / spotting.
Hopefully it all stops now and you can relax a little xx
