Hi - I'm 5 weeks pregnant and I had brown spotting last night, followed by AF style cramps and a bit of red blood this morning. It isn't heavy, but definitely red.

Do I wait and see if it gets worse or go to the doctor?? I don't even know what they'll do. I am so upset as I haven't had any pregnancy symptoms since Tuesday and I'm pretty sure i've lost it.

If anyone can tell me what I should do I would really appreciate it as this is my 1st pregnancy.
 
im so sorry hon ive just lost my baby i was 6 weeks so i know how scary it is waiting and not knowing wats happening the docs will probably say its too early for a scan and to just wait it ou but defo call your doc but it could settle down good luck sweetie xx

Thank you for the reply and sorry for your loss. It's just so hard not knowing what's going on.:hug:
 
I had a m/c at 6 weeks in January, started off brown, then red.

I phoned NHS24 and they basically said, sorry but just wait it out.
If it gets heavier and clotty it's prob a m/c, if it goes away go and see GP.

Not much help I know, but there is nothing else to do really, unless you have SEVERE pain and suspect an ectopic.

:hug:
 
I had a m/c in march at 5weeks, mine started off tinged with a pink stain, then next day i woke up an had bright red blood and pain, I had dr appointment anyway to confirm pregnanct, She said i was to wait and see if it got havier as women can bleed and go on to have healthy pregnancies, later on that day it got heavier and i went to Nhs24(Local hospital) She said sounded like a m/c so i would have to go get blood taken to check hcg level,,Anyways ny time i got home baby had passed...So if your worried then dr is the best bet?? Try not to worry to much at the moment tho, Could be nothing xx
 
hey hunni i would go see your doctor and see what he says. some do say to wait it out and others will do a blood test to see what your hcg is like and then repeat it a few days later to see if it has risen or fallen.

it could just be baby settling in there. with my youngest i had some bleeding and thought i was my af (was on hols at the time and didnt think i was pg) turns out it was an implantation bleed.

when i started bleeding with my first angel it went from really pink to really heavy within an hour or so and the cramps started later on that night. the next day i lost the baby. x
 
Thank you for all the messages. Unfortunately it just wasn't meant to be. Went to the Dr who told me to wait it out, and have been clotting heavily all afternoon with cramps. I'm pretty upset about it but I know there are others here who have been through far worse than me. Much love to all who gave their advice. xxx
 
so sorry to hear this. sending you lots of love and hugs

Hi Glitterbug, you are being very brave. I was reading your threads in ttc and was sorryto hear your news. I was in a similar situation, I found out I was pregnant at 9am and then by lunch time was bleeding. The hospital thought it was a MC but it was ectopic. It was my #1 too.

Its so hard and I am and sorry for your loss. Please PM me if you want to talk. XXXX
 
I'm so sorry. I know how painful it is to feel the excitement of bringing a baby into this world only to have your dreams seemingly ripped away in seconds.

It will hurt for quite a while, but the pain does ease. You won't ever forget, but you will be ready to try again soon.

Hang in there. :hug:
 
i'm so sorry to hear that hunni hugew :hug: coming your way. hope your holding up ok. x
 
So sorry for your loss hun and no matter whether you were 6wks, 16wks or 26wks it's still as heartbreaking. We're all here for you if and when you need us x

:hug:
 
Hi Ladies. Thank you for your lovely messages.

Feeling a little brighter today. I try to tell myself it just wasn't meant to be this time.

I am pretty scared it will happen again but I guess my body will decide when the time is right.

Sending big :hug: to all of you and so sorry for all your losses.

Here's to moving forward. xxxx
