Question

2 positive tests and now I'm bleeding. What's hppening???

I took tests on 12dpo and 13dpo. I started dark red spotting today, 17 dpo, and I'm not sure if this is a miscarriage or something normal. I've had healthy pregnancies and never experienced this :(. Has this happened to anyone and had a normal, healthy pregnancy?

Thank you all for your responses. Ugh... I had a feeling that was what it was. :'-( We were just so happy to see that pink line after months of trying.

So sorry :(. My last pregnancy was fraught with dark red to brown bleeding and I ended up miscarrying at 8 weeks. That said, I've heard a lot of stories that ended happier. A friend of mine is 8 weeks and experienced bright red bleeding last week, but u/s showed the baby was fine. I wish you all the very best.

Thanks for the glimmer of hope PaperHeart, I'm going to try to hold on to that. I guess I just wait a few days and take another test??? If it is a CP, will I bleed as long as a normal period?

I think it really just depends. I had a cp once with no bleeding in between it and conceiving my dd. It was only in hindsight that we realized I'd had two different pregnancies. If you are experiencing a cp and there's a bright side, it's that studies suggest an increase in fertility with the following cycle. In my case, I got a bfp one evening, but by morning was testing bfn. I felt pg and was sure nothing else could explain some very specific symptoms. However, a week or so following my bfp/bfn, I noticed fertile cm and thought I had nothing to lose by bd'ing just in case. I'm so very thankful that happened as that one bd resulted in a healthy pregnancy. I don't really know why I had no bleeding with that cp.

Wow, that's really interesting, thanks for sharing. I'll be sure to be on the lookout for fertility signs ð???. It's such a complex matter, I spend hours researching and feel like a detective trying to solve a mystery. Ahhhh... Well, here's to next month. ð???

Not all early pregnancy bleeding means you are miscarrying, I gushed bright red blood at 7 weeks then turned to brown until 11 weeks when I gushed more bright red blood and clots. Had an ultrasound and bubs was kicking around oblivious to everything! Turns out I had a sub chorionic hematoma which is caused from a small tear where the egg implants. I'm now 23 weeks and all is fine :) I've also had chemicals in the past and the lines on my hpts always got lighter instead on darker then I'd start bleeding. Goodluck and hope everything works out for you xx
