Anyone bleed like a period in early pregnancy, or am I cooked?

I’m 10dpo today. Yesterday I was getting faints. Today they’re darker, but all of a sudden last night I started bleeding dark red like a period… but my tests today are darker but not dark enough for a digital. I’m worried about ectopic. If this were chemical wouldn’t the tests be lighter?

Those tests look negative to me but if you have a line on those you’ll get a positive on the red ended digital clear blue.

Best of luck x

With it being so early in your pregnancy, I think it would mean you're possibly miscarrying if it's heavy like a period. If it's just spotting, could be implanting. I'd call your OB to confirm because they can order lab tests and trend it to see if it's going up or down but it's too early to do any ultrasound. When I first miscarried at 8 weeks, I bled heavily like clot heavy. My last pregnancy I thought I was miscarrying again at 8-9 weeks because of having the same bleeding and it was due to multiple hematomas. Per OB, lots of women bleed throughout and continue to have healthy pregnancies.

I can’t see anything on these tests. They look negative to me x

I was getting faint lines. Just enough for a positive digital and started bleeding 12 hours after. My OB told me it was likely enough pregnancy hormones for a test but that the egg didnt stay implanted. I would see a doctor if you can

I had 2x pregnancy's where light first time couple years ago was really light line with dark line next morning tummy was sore wiped with tissue after going to toilet started pink than turned into mid bleeding was confirmed a loss, second time I got confirmed pregnancy told all looked good bloods after light test than went for scan was horrible lady wouldn't let anyone in including my partner knew was bad few weeks later I went for follow up scan felt awkward holding pee struggled and had to race to toilet although bladder built back up knew something was wrong they said inwas going to lose my baby few days later I miscarried was so painful this time I ended up in and out of thr bath to even the point so exhausted I fell asleep in the bath than the bleeding started the following day.

happens differently for everyone. I hope you get your success soon if your trying.

I ended up with success after 2x miscarriages and pregnancy in 9 months hope makes u feel bit more hopeful Look after yourself.

Was another loss so when I fell she struggled with the idea but what if we lose the baby again. Remember your limits as well with trying I read so many stories women ruin themselves and keep trying and trying till nothing left. Hope all goes well on your journey wish you baby dust and success.

38 weeks!

Looking for some advice, was admitted for reduced movements on Friday but self discharged as everything was okay and movements picked up. Since last night I’ve been having light spotting and then this morning feel like again movements have dropped even after a couple of cold drinks. I do have a doppler scan today so is it worth mentioning something when I get there or call up before I go?

Moving to West Wales

Hi all,

I am pregnant and will be moving from South to West Wales. This means I will likely need to change hospitals even though I really don’t want to. I will like be consultant led so will be the hospital in Carmathen. I have read terrible things about the care there so I am nervous. Has anyone have experience of it? Has anyone moved but kept their original hospital - is this even possible when there is so much travel involved?
