*potentially sensitive* Bleeding at 5, 6 and 7 weeks

strawberriesandcream profile image

Hi all

I’ve posted about spotting as I have had this since 5 weeks pregnant. I am currently 7+4.

It has mainly been brown spotting on a pantyliner and when I wipe but I have had some incidents of bright red (one being last night during the night). I’ve experienced no pain but this bleeding has been on and off for 2.5 weeks so far.

I had my viability scan today and all was ok thankfully ❤️ There is basically a pool of blood in my uterus which is not by the baby. I will likely continue to bleed for this reason.

I wanted to share this as I was going out of mind (even after a reassurance scan with EPU) as I have previously miscarried and nothing on Dr Google explained that this might be a cause. So I hope that if someone is struggling with similar bleeding that this might provide some reassurance xxx

Was Saturdays scan all ok then? I could see my pool of blood on the ultrasound so that was helpful. Are they scanning again to find a reason? Xx

Can’t see photo but I’m guessing it’s of your little raspberry. They said the same to me that when I stop meds it might go away xx

I am glad to read that and very happy for you. I am prity much on the same situation ...I am spotting since day 5 post transfer and I am scared to death ... I didn't even had the courage to call and book an ultrasound scan until today when I had no choice ...one more week to go and we will know what is going on ... either good or bad 😬

No my bleed is outside of the sac so sounds like it’s something different. Sorry to hear you’re going through this. Good luck for the next scan, hopefully the change in medication will do what you need it to. Sending lots of love xx
