    Hi ladies. For now the bleeding seems to have eased a bit, cramps still pretty bad though. This morning when I took my tampon out (tmi) I got what you described sky, a rush of clots, not too big though (I've had ones the size of $20 bills before when m/c) probably the size of 5c pieces. Like I said, I guess there's just no real way to tell It would have been a very early loss, 10dpo. I'm just going to take it easy and see how I go. I've been to the ED with early m/c before so I've got no qualms about going again, but I think the worst of whatever *that* was is over now. Thanks ladies

    Sorry you are going through this . Please go and get yourself checked out though, even if just to see a GP. I don't want to cause worry, but I had the same experience (AF came 4 days early and I had awful cramping and clots) and it turned out to be an ectopic pregnancy. I think it's always worth seeing a health provider when you are experiencing clots and cramping.

    I hope it eases up for you soon .

    Oh sweety, that sounds awful!

    I totally agree with Trish though. Please go and get checked out by your doc. Those symptoms are not usual.
    FWIW a poas might still not come up if you are only 10dpo

    Went in to a weekend clinic (where luckily my gyno works on w/e) this morning for a blood test, she said she will call with the results either tonight or tomorrow. I passed a pretty big clot earlier, even df seems convinced that I am having another chem pregnancy as it is so similar to the one I have had before. Bleeding has eased off a lot now, my doc said so long as I don't develop a fever or start bleeding loads that things will just happen naturally. I feel a bit emotionally numb atm as I didn't even know I was pg...and after 15 months ttc another m/c, no matter how early, really stings. In a way I'm glad I didn't know before I m/c, as I would be completely devistated right now.

    ETA She called before, levels at 37. I have been bleeding for 3 days now, but not like last night, which is when I think the m/c happened, which would have made me around 12-13 dpo. Like I said, just a bit numb really. Thankyou all for your advice and for urging me to go see my doctor, I am glad I did.
