Hey guys, looking for some advice..

im 6 weeks on Monday, spoke to the EPU yesterday and have a scan booked in for Monday morning.

started light spotting yesterday and overnight it’s become continuous bright red bleeding. Not enough to go in but it’s like im on my period.

3rd pregnancy and I’ve never had this before I know it can be normal im just a worrier.

Hmmm I think I'd be bracing myself for bad news. The fact it's continued and got heavier and is red isn't ideal. It might be fine, but I'd count that as a very pleasant surprise rather than the expected outcome. Hugs.

Hand hold.
I had a haematoma at around 6 weeks and all ended up fine. It’s a hellish wait. Just wanted to let you know you’re not on your own.

Thank you. It is really hard trying to be positive. It seems to have calmed down a little again now. The longest weekend ever

I had this at 8 and 14 weeks and had a normal pregnancy. Hoping for the best for you.
