I'll try and keep this as brief as poss.
I got an early BFP on 19th Dec & 20th Dec. At this point I would have been approx 4 weeks based on my last LMP.
I didnt expect to fall pregnant as I had been diagnosed with PCOS and started on a low dose of Met. I started getting mild cramps and sickness which is unusal normally for me hence doing the test.
On 25th Dec, I started getting severe lower back pains and the odd severe stomach pain, this was no better on 26th Dec so I brought another preg test. It was a clearblue conception indicator one. It went positive but the indicatior put me at 1-2 weeks which was would have been less than I thought I should have been. However i didnt use FMU so dismissed it.
On 27th Dec I had brown discharge with bits of red in it, was referred to hosp where they did a urine test to rule out a water infection. They told me I was passing blood and that it could just be normal or a threatened miscarriage or an actual m/c.
On 31st Dec the discharge became more watery red, I went to A&E who couldnt really do anything but got me a scan at EPAU for 2nd Jan.
Went for the scan, all symptoms were the same with the odd pain/cramp but nothing too unbearable. A scan couldnt detect anything other than womb lining had started to thicken, internal scan ruled out an ectopic. They did a beta blood test which came back at 89 which is low considering I should have been approx 5-6 wks.
On 4th Jan I started to get dark red blood and needed a saniatary towel, the blood was thin and runny like fresh blood but not watery nor excessive, this continued and I was using about 3-4 towels a day to keep fresh rather than needing to keep changing. I had absolutely no pains.
5th Jan I went to EPAU for second blood test and told them about the bleeding. The level came back at just 13 - was told I was or had miscarried and that was being discharged now from EPAU. I asked how long I would bleed for and she said roughly a few days to a week.
The bleeding stopped on 6th Jan mid afternoon. That evening about 9pm I started to get horrific back and cramping pains, these lasted for about 4 hours.
7th Jan got up - still no blood, but a browny mucusy discharge like I had originally got and only when I wiped. No pains either. 10pm the horrifc pains and cramping came, I went to toilet and there was a bit of pinky/watery blood when I wiped and when I leaked. The pains were exactly the same as the previous night and went after about 4 hours.
I ve woken up this morning, no blood, but still have a light brown mucusy discharge and the odd twinge where my ovaries are.
Im concerned that I ve still not passed any clots or "material", does what I ve explained seem normal ??
If I dont pass anything should I see my GP or am I just worrying unnecessarily??
I dont really know when my m/c actually started as such, I presume if my beta levels were 13 on Mon then by now they must have dropped below 5 - does that mean once u get below 5 the m/c has ended ?? Just feel confused by it all and dont really know if whats happening is normal or when to expect it to stop, I just feel quite bloated and uncomfortable
Sorry this turned into a long one in the end x
