Congratulations on your pregnancy. This is implantation bleeding and it’s normal at this stage!

Thank you ❤️ Would I get implantation soo late on? My previous ivf I had a silent miscarriage 😢

Yes it could go on for weeks, unfortunately the only thing you can do is wait for your scan. I know it’s not easy!

Congratulations! It could be implantation bleeding but also it’s common with ivf pregnancies to bleed. Speak to your clinic too as they may do a blood test for you. Xx

I had a huge bleed after my BFp. Was so convinced it was over but it wasn’t. I just remember being told it’s common in ivf pregnancies. They don’t know why. It’s horrid being in this situation, but it really doesn’t mean it’s the end. Everything crossed for you xx

Try not to panic. I had a big bleed and thought it was game over, I was beside myself but everything turned out to be fine. Bleeding is more common with IVF pregnancies so it doesn't necessarily mean it's the end. Speak to your clinic and see if they can offer some reassurance with a blood test or a scan in another week or so. Keeping my fingers crossed for you. X

Thank you.. I’m glad all was fine with you.. ❤️ the clinic said it can happen and if it gets more red let them know.. my viable scan is on 10th June.. got my beta done last Monday 10dpt and it was 354, I got it repeated on Thursday so waiting the results.. thank you 🙏 you just worry about every single thing xx

Don’t worry at all. I know that is easier said than done! As long as it doesn’t fill a pad within an hour. You’re 1 in 4 woman who have spotting in early pregnancy. I’m now 7w1d and I had spotting until early 6w. Seems to have stopped now but the nurses said to not be surprised if I have more.

That’s very reassuring.. I only wiped the once and it was gone.. ooh really? Did you panic? Congratulations on your BFP hope your keeping well.. ❤️

Hi Kirstie, I bled for the first 3 months of my pregnancy and have a beautiful healthy son. Try not too worry (I know easier said then done). You will have your viability scan really soon.

Thank you for the reassurance.. congratulations on the birth of your son 💙 thankfully it’s just under 2 weeks.. this is soo hard 😢

Hey Kirstie, congratulations on your pregnancy. I started spotting after a BFP and, although my clinic don’t do normally bloods, they were happy for me to have them done in order to put my mind at ease. I had more bumps in the road along the way including a big bleed but now happy to say 19weeks. As someone has already said bleeding especially with IVF pregnancies seems to be very common. Hopefully yours will slow down Xx

That’s very good, sounds like it’s just a bit of implantation or spotting - and if it comes back try not to panic and remember loads of us have had it and it’s all been fine. Xx

Congratulations! I had some bleeding at around 7 weeks and everything was absolutely fine, I’m currently 15 weeks. Try not to worry - easier said than done I know! xx

Congrats lovely. It looks very light so try not to worry. Though if you need some reassurance phone your clinic or local early pregnancy unit. I had a bleed & cramping at 6 weeks but it faded after 24 hrs. We now have a beautiful 8 week old baby boy (with help from a donor too!). Try to keep calm. When I had my bleed I went to bed & watched Friends, it always makes me giggle. Take it very easy, keep your mood positive & happy, and get some rest. Xx

It sure is a worrying time. I was incredibly anxious throughout the pregnancy. I don’t think the hormones help either. Best of luck with your viability scan. Xx

I had a little bleeding for a couple days too, nothing heavy. If you’re using progesterone suppositories, it could also be irritation from that. They told me to rinse it under water and only insert up to my knuckle and after that the bleeding stopped.
