More bleeding and period pains 🙁

[Pebbles345]

Another post from me I'm afraid!

I really feel like my period is about to start as I have cramps and i've just been to the toilet to find more fresh blood. It had stopped for a day but now there is more again. It's not a lot of blood but it's fresh pink!

I have called and emailed my clinic today and nobody has got back to me. I'm so sad and stressed, I can't even go to work.

I think I know what's ahead but I just want some answers and if it is the worst then I want to be able to stop the medication and grieve.

I'm only 5+5 today so I doubt that I can have a scan but has anyone got any advice on what I can do/ should be asking for?

Thank you 😊 xx

I am so sorry to hear this Pebbles. Could you ask your clinic or your EPU for an HCG blood test? That might give you an idea about what is going on? Whilst you are there maybe they can try and scan you too, although it may be inconclusive x

thank you. I feel really let down by my clinic as they are so busy that they haven't called back.

I imagine that they won't see me until I am 6 weeks (Wednesday) but I just hope if it is a MC then it just happens quickly. I don't even know if I should take tablets for the period pains. It's amazing that we pay the clinics so much money but they don't really offer any service.

Thanks for repays always, it's really kind of you xx

my clinic said to me that if it was red blood and filled a pad within hour then to go to a&e which would then hopefully scan,

It's horrible place to be in, hope you're clinic gets back to you real soon,

thank you. I've just spoken to the clinic and they will make a referral to the early pregnancy clinic on Wednesday. For now I just need to rest and let nature take its course 😢.

Thanks for getting in touch. Take care xx

I had a bleed last Friday and went for a scan with EPU on Monday and have another SCH (I had one with my daughter too) they can cause bright red bleeding so please do not think the worst! Thinking of you x

Really sorry to hear what you’re going through. I’ve been in a similar situation and found the EPU really good. Supportive and caring even when it’s not the news you want. Paracetamol is definitely ok to take if you are pregnant but you could double check with your clinic if you were worried. I’m not surprised that you are not able to work, I was so anxious and stressed there is no way I could have done my job as well. I absolutely get what you say about stopping medication as I felt exactly the same. I just wanted to know and get past it. However, as I said in another post, lots of people posted when I was going through it to say they had had really bad bleeding with clots etc and that it had a positive outcome. Thinking of you. Xx

My dear let me correct you ...you don't know what is ahead of you 🤗... unfortunately we always fear the worse but is not always the case. I also had red fresh blood for over 2 weeks starting with day 5 of my transfer, at some point was so bad that it was just dripping into the toilet (just like period). This is not all, I had really bad cramps. I never thought for a second that my twin pregnancy will hit finish line after 9 months but here we go...my babies are now on my laps 🥰 I am sending you all my positivity and don't lose your hopes ♥️😍

that's a really lovely story, congratulations to you! That's just wonderful news ❤️❤️.

I really know that I still need to have hope as there are more stories like yours. I just think I'm scared to hope as it's so upsetting . You're right though, I need faith! xx

easier said than done but stay calm. I had bleeding early on (8 weeks) in my 2nd pregnancy I went to the gp immediately and they booked me in for an internal scan quite quickly. It turned out to be normal No reason to worry. Attachment bleeding etc..

I didn’t know if at the time but I have a heart shaped womb which can lead to miscarriage. Difficult births etc… my two boys literally came out of a heart ❤️ 👏🏻

If your worried see your gp if the clinic are busy. I can’t see why they wouldn’t step in.

Sending good thoughts your way.
