Hi ladies,

I'd like to hear if someone experienced this before..

I'm on 13DPT and got a positive test since 7DPT, I started spotting since day 4 after transfer and it still didn't stop! I was thinking gonna be few days but it's gonna be around 10 days 🙄. I can see always vaginal bleeding when I wipe only but never blood flow on my underwear.

Please advise if that's normal? Did anyone faced this and had a healthy pregnancy?

Hi Hannah I’ve had this twice and I believe spotting in early pregnancy is actually quite common. Once for me was a chemical but the 2nd time I am currently 27weeks with (lots of info from others similar on my posts in case it helps) I would advise you phone your clinic and get repeat HCGs done to check out what’s going on. Wishing the best for you 🤗💕 xx

Thanks for responding twiglet2, unfortunately my clinic don't make blood test they only rely on the urine test and gonna have ultrasound check tomorrow. Hopefully all will be good 🤞

For how many days the spotting stayed with you?

Yes mine don’t do blood tests either but did because I was bleeding. The cause of mine was a subchorionic hematoma so the bleeding actually lasted to about 9-10weeks and got very heavy (they saw it on an ultrasound at just under 6 weeks) but there are many other reasons for spotting that can clear up quicker or don’t get heavier etc. And it’s quite common, especially in IVF pregnancies. Great they are doing an ultrasound for you 🤞🏽 Hopefully that will give you some answers 🤗 xx

I just called the clinic and I guess that I misunderstood them. My ultrasound appointment is next Tuesday not tomorrow.. So I need to wait the whole week stil 😢Today the blood became heavier but I still got a positive test.

I'm so worried..

I completely understand the worry, there isn’t much that anyone can to change whatever the outcome is at this stage so the best thing to do is rest up until your scan next week. They can’t really tell anything on the scan this early which is why they are maybe waiting another week. When I was having a chemical pregnancy the tests got lighter (weeks indicator went backwards) so I knew even before I went to the clinic but for this current pregnancy the tests stayed strong and weeks indicator progressed as it should despite the heavy bleeding (although in both occasions I became test obsessed so might be easier to not test, I couldn’t resist though). Rest up, I know it will be a long wait until the scan next week 😢 xx

Thank you for your response. I appreciate that.I'll just wait and see how the blood flow goes.

Finger crossed 🤞

Hi HanaHana, if the bleeding has become heavier you may want to ring the Early Pregnancy Unit (EPU). They could at least do urine tests and possibly a vaginal scan to try and identify the source of the bleed.

So sorry that you are having to put up with this additional worry. I really hope it’s not a miscarriage.

I actually meant to write that the EPU could do a blood test.

Please look after yourself, fingers crossed the bleeding stops and you go ahead to have a successful pregnancy xx
