Is this the beginning of a miscarriage?
Hi all! This is my first time posting a question on here but I thought maybe someone would have advice and or an opinion on my current situation. My DH and I have had 2 mc in the past year. We were not trying this month but about a week before my scheduled af I tested because I was seeing symptoms. I had a very faint positive at 10 dpo. I tested this morning- (18dpo) the day after my af was scheduled to arrive and got a BFP! But unfortunately, about an hour later I started bleeding. Not heavily, but still enough red to concern me. Some have said bleeding this early can be normal but I am needing thoughts?? Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately, this is a wait n see situation. Bleeding can be very normal for some, for me, every time I have had any bleeding, I have lost the pregnancy. My bff had a regular monthly bleed, similar to a period (but not, obvs) til the day she gave birth. It really is different for everyone and every pregnancy that person has. Set up an appt with ur doctor and see if he/she will do some bloodwork to see where ur hCG levels are at and how fast they are rising. It wont guaranty anything, nothing will, but it will help relieve some of the anxiety.
Good luck & Congrats! =))

Have you considered trying progesterone? I had continuous spotting throughout my last pregnancy and eventually lost that baby at 8 weeks. I'm unexpectedly pg, now (only about 4 weeks), but have been on progesterone since October or so and I do feel like it's helping. Best wishes for you.

Thank you!! I will definitely be using progesterone next cycle if this turns out to be a chemical or miscarriage. Update: bleeding lasted for 2 full days, no heavy but not necessarily light either and no cramping. I've taken 5 pregnancy tests with fmu- all faint positive. I thought seeing the positive would be encouraging but shouldn't they be getting darker rather than lighter ? :( so confused. Have a dr apt Wednesday. So hard to be patient
