Bleeding During Pregnancy - Women's Stories Of Bleeding In Pregnancy #3

[seashell]

I have been reading through all your threads and i'm happy to find out that there still can be positives to bleeding in pregnancy. I would like to share my story too...

I've been trying for two years to fall pregnant, at the start had a very early chemical pregnancy and have nothing since so hence my fearfullness of bleeding during pregnancy.

Now I started bleeding when AF was due, so didn't think anything of it. It stopped about two days later, still didn't think anything of it. Started bleeding again 3 days later, for some reason decided to do a hpt (no symptoms or anything) and got a bfp to my surprise. I'm now about 6 and a half weeks, still bleeding (dark brown, occassionly some red streaks and very small bits/clots, sorry tmi), still getting bfps and still don't really have any symptoms. I have an appointment with my ob in 1 and half weeks...i'm hoping that everthing will be alright, however given my past experiences am not too positive.

Will let you know how I go, and good luck to others who are experiencing similar problems.

I had sex this afternoon and when I went to the toilet after, there was some pale pink on the toilet paper. I know that this is completely normal because of increased blood flow in the vagina etc

However.. about half an hour later I went and checked again, and the bleeding had become red and with a few small clots.

I immediately freaked out of course. I rang the midwives at the labour ward after hours number, and she said to just lie down and rest and if I get bad cramping or it gets heavy to phone back.

I laid down and slept for about 2 hours, and when I woke up there was still a bit dripping into the toilet, but when I wiped it was only kinda pale again, like it was watered down. And there's no extra on the pad, so it's not like it's flowing.


I know that almost half of all women experience bleeding during early pregnancy and it's all fine, but still - I'm not feeling great about it all.


Did anyone else have similar? I was fine with the pale pink on the toilet paper, but once I saw the clots and heavier blood I freaked.


Please stay alive little baby
