*updated * 8 weeks today and started with pains and bleeding ๐Ÿ˜”

I know itโ€™s really common to get cramps and bleeding early on in pregnancy, but for me in the past it has always signalled the start of a miscarriage. Iโ€™m so worried and hate feeling like this ๐Ÿ˜ข. I wish I could fast forward a few months to know Iโ€™m at less risk of losing our baby XX

Update - I went for my scan this morning and thank god all was well ๐Ÿ™ Our little jelly baby was measuring fine and doing really well, so I cried my eyes out. Theyโ€™re not sure weโ€™re the blood came from but thereโ€™s no signs of any more in there, so fingers crossed thatโ€™s it and no more scares. Just wanted to say thank you to all you lovely ladies for your kind words and positive thoughts. Wishing lots of luck to everyone ๐Ÿ’•xX

Ah bless you, I hope that everything works out ok for you Hun. I had lots of cramps for weeks & couldn't enjoy my pregnancy at all until I started to feel him move. It's so bloody hard after previous miscarriages x

Thank you Hun. I know you should try not to compare it when youโ€™ve had miscarriages in the past as it may be nothing, but itโ€™s so hard. Hopefully itโ€™s nothing to worry about x

in reply to Clover5

It is exceptionally hard, I had no idea how much I would struggle especially in the earlier weeks. I had 3 scans before 12 weeks & 100% expected bad news at all 3 of them. It was a horrendous time... Makes me sad now as it should have been a wonderful time. I'll keep my fingers crossed for a positive outcome for you xx

I donโ€™t blame you as itโ€™s so difficult to relax and enjoy be pregnant when youโ€™ve had past bad experiences. Iโ€™m glad all is well with your pregnancy now and really hope you have a healthy one ๐Ÿ’• thank you ๐Ÿ™ xx

As the others have said, try to stay positive, although I know itโ€™s easier said than done. I had a bleed at 8 weeks with my son and all was ok. My fingers are firmly crossed xxx

Thanks Hun. How long did it last for when you bled? Xx

Snez84 in reply to Clover5

Probably two days and it was when I wiped. I actually called my local NHS maternity clinic at the time and they had me in for a scan within a couple of hours to check all was ok. Pregnancy is such a rollercoaster isnโ€™t it. I hope the bleeding has started to settle for you xx

Thatโ€™s good they got you in so quickly. My clinic have been a bit rubbish actually and the first thing they said was have we signed you off. I told them I had been passed off to the midwife now but they said I could be scanned by them up to 10 weeks. Nobody has called me back after I left my details so I may try going through the nhs if it carries on. The bleeding isnโ€™t as bad now thankfully xx

Aaw hun, sorry to hear youโ€™re having pains. Please try not to worry too much, can you ring your clinic and have a chat to them about how youโ€™re feeling? They maybe able to offer you reassurance.

Try not to think about the past (far easier said than done I know).

Try and relax a little xxx

Clover5 in reply to Sherry07

Thanks Hun ๐Ÿ’• I thought the same with the 2nd sac and thought it could be that so hopefully it is. Iโ€™m in for a scan in the morning, so going to stay positive and try and get an early night xX
