My head is a mess- possible impending miscarriage HELP

10 Replies

I’m 5 weeks pregnant today, Sunday morning I started having intense stomach cramps low in my stomach almost the same as period which continued until Tuesday at this point no bleed. I had a hcg Tuesday which would have made me 14dp5dt (fet) my level come back at 808 but literally as they put the phone down my cramps were followed by a bleed a slow bleed which has continued today much heavier. I had a 2nd hcg today preparing myself for them to say my levels have declined but they have increased to 1300 which taking away the bleed they would be happy with. I told myself Ive miscarried and prepared for the worst and now im in complete limbo. I have to have another test Monday which I’m almost certain won’t be good news but also hanging on to a glimmer of hope. Not that it matters but my test have been dye stealers since 13dpt.

Has anyone ever been in this situation? I don’t want to believe it’s over but I’m also a realist! 💔

Try to hang in there love. I know it must be so hard. It's obviously a good sign your hcg is rising and lots of women on here have bleeding very early. Sometimes a lot! And it doesn't always mean it's game over so try to stay calm and think positive until your next hcg. Don't lose hope yet xxx

Congrats on the dye stealing BFPS. 🌈🎉.

It is scary when we see blood, but hang in there. I had some bright red bleed on 6+6 weeks as well, however all was fine and am currently 10 weeks today.

If the Hcg is rising then all will be good. Wishing you the best. 🤗🤞❤️

Thank you, it’s so so so scary. My last CP was nothing like this as my test were so faint so i knew it was happening. It’s just seems so different this time. I’m starting to learn bleeding is way more common than I thought. Congratulations on your pregnancy 💗 xx

Hi try and think positive I know it’s hard, I had bleeding really bad cramps I just had a really bad water infection, I did bleed with my now 1 year old quite a bit and was so paranoid we were having a miscarriage. Like u I kept preparing myself for the worst but it all turned out good in the end, I did find it hard to enjoy my pregnancy try and not stress I know it’s so hard.

Sending u love xx

Thank you for your reply and I’m so glad it was all ok when you had it and this gives me reassurance it could work out for me too. 🙏 xxx

Awww I’m so sorry you are experiencing this! 🙁 Cramps can be normal and also some bleeding, bleeding can occur for a variety of reasons, it is not always related to miscarriage. I also bled at around 8 weeks and it was a small hematoma. Hcg should double in 48-72 hours at this stage, when did you have the second one done?

Hey, thank you for your reply and I’m really holding on the any bit of hope. I’ve heard about sch and I’m really hoping it’s this and not a loss. My pain has completely gone but I’m still having gushes of blood especially my first toilet today I guess as I’ve been led down for 8 hours with very dark what looks like clots. sorry tmi. My second hcg test was taken just under 48 hours apart. Xx

An agonising wait for monday, for sure... but thik how you'll feel if you get the news that everything is ok? You'll be kicking yourself for having put yourself through all that torment. Of course you'll worry, but keep the worry at bay, chin up, positive thoughts and stay strong. You've got this! Sending all the luck, well wishes & prayers your way x x x
