    Bleeding at 5 weeks, help?

    please feel free to move this if it hasn't been posted correctly.

    I found out today that I am preg, although I have felt that I am for a while. I had a bt done on friday, and my hcg was low, only 11. I only got a BFP today, so I assume my hcg went up a fair bit during that time. I am guessing that I am about 5 weeks, as I O'ed later than usual, by about a week, on the 12th of october, which puts me at 5 weeks tomorrow. About an hour ago I went to the toilet and when I wiped, there was some red blood mixed in with CM. I know it can be normal to bleed during early pregnancy, but i've already had two early losses, and I'm scared I will losses this one too I'm going to go to the doctors in the morning, and hopefully the bleeding doesn't get any worse. There aren't any clots or anything, but I am having cramps. Is this typical or should I be worried?

    Spotting coupled with a low HCG reading always meant miscarriage for me. Spotting coupled with a high HCG reading meant success. Perhaps you could go get another BT done & then you would have a better idea of what's going on. Good luck.

    So the bleeding and cramping became a lot worse overnight. I took another hpt, it was still positive but lighter than what it was. Went to the doctor first thing, took another hpt there, and still BFP but very light. Got some bloods drawn, will get the results this afternoon, but looks like an early miscarriage
