So confused!!!

[Ariel2015]

Hello everyone

I am so confused! I have been bleeding and have period pains but this morning the test was positive!! Has this happened before? Is it a miscarriage!? Clinic hasn’t called me back yet but I am not sure how to feel?!

Any advice!?

Bleeding like a period or spotting? Red or brown? I had awful period cramps my whole first trimester and 5 trips to early pregnancy unit due to the pain and bleeding.

Bleeding like period!! Also crumps but not too bad!!! I now remember I had the same on my first pregnant but I had an ectopic pregnancy at the same time so I thought it was all due to that!!

Sometimes you can have bleeding from a hematoma that doesn't affect the pregnancy, I've seen several ladies on here with this. And cramps can just be your uterus stretching, I was crampy for quite a while before and after getting my BFP, so I hope this is what's going on with you. It'll be too early for a scan I imagine, but the clinic could offer you blood tests a couple of days apart to check hormone levels are rising. I really hope everything's alright there, keep us posted xxx

Hi Ariel. Oh dear, I can fully understand how anxious you are feeling. Lots of ladies do get an awful scare from clot formation, that does dissolve and all continues as it should. The cramps could just be your body getting rid of some excess blood, so just focus on the positive test, rest when you can, and hopefully all will settle down. thinking of you. Diane

I went for an ultrasound on Monday due to bleeding and pains i thought were period related and when they looked everything was fine. Just had a small hematoma. I'm still super anxious because I'm only 6 weeks, but keeping faith it'll all be fine. Sending prayers that yours is nothing serious Xx

The clinic said to do another test in a week!! But I am booked for a 6 week scan now!!

I have started doubting myself but I am sure that the test was perfectly timed
