Hi everyone my head is all over the place and I have done the one thing i tell people not to do which is 'Google!'. I have found some interesting things but wondered if anyone else has had any or knows anyone who has experienced what I am going through. Sorry it's a long one and possibly tmi at times but worrying possibly over nothing - hopefully. I have been going through ivf, I had 2 good quality blastocysts transferred. I had implantation bleeding last sat29th/sun30th. I tested on Thursday 3rd in the morning and had a positive test using clear blue saying 1-2 weeks. I called the hospital and have a scan booked for 2 weeks time. They say I am 4 weeks now and will be 5 weeks on Monday. On Thursday I had a bit more brown discharge but not much, only when wiping. Yesterday (friday) I had brown discharge again only when wiping then it turned pink later in the day but still not much then later afternoon it seemed to go red and pink. At 230 I put a pad on just as a precaution by 8pm I had what felt like cramping in my abdomen and lower back ache. Around 815pm I passed what I felt was a large clot/tissue only the size of my thumb if that. Once I had passed it pain started to ease and since then I have passed 2 or 3 smaller/tiny clots/blood vessels. I am resting today and doing minimal things. I have only occassional dull aches in my abdomen and lower back but feel nausea and body temp still seems high which is what I have had for about a week anyway. I changed my pad at 630am as it was uncomfortable, it wasn't full, considering it had been there since 230pm Friday afternoon. I havent needed to change since and it's not even half full. Bleeding does seem to be coming to an end and is becoming lighter and not showing as much when I wee. I have read sometimes this can be common and people have still had a normal pregancy has anyone experienced this?? I'm going to re test on Tuesday and trying to stay positive. Thank you.
Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi sorry to hear this is all very stressful for you. Firstly congratulations xxx
I am 26 weeks pregnant today and I had bleeding/spotting from the first day of my missed period which was on and off until about 15/16 weeks. I know it's different circumstances but didn't want to read and run without mentioning what I have been through and baby is doing well now. My bleeding spotting was thick/heavy and brown at times and I had some mild discomfort and niggles. There was a few times I wiped and it was pink. Like yourself I googled the hell out of it but unfortunately there's not an awful lot you can do, it is out of our control. But you seem to be doing the right thing and resting. I was told by midwife/doctor it was a threatened miscarriage but this little one was definitely meant to be. I hope your little bean sticks not all bleeding ends in miscarriage so keep strong and take it easy xxx

Thank you for your response. Congratulations to You! So it must be a common thing for bleeding through early pregnancy. The bleeding is now starting to ease off a lot now and hardly any cramps and if i have any they are more like a stitch/quick sharp type feeling. Lower back pain is just a dull feeling. It seems to be more pink coloured than red but no clots for almost 12 hours but bleeding started around 26 hours now which makes me feel it's not a menstrual cycle. Do you think if it was a miscarriage I would be in pain and bleed heavier for longer perhaps?
I'm also not sure if because I had 2 embryos of good quality transferred perhaps they both implantated but 1 maybe not survived and my body is getting rid of that.
I feel like I have a cold coming and a sore throat as well as nausea. Headaches have eased now as well. I'm refusing to take any paracetamol as well.
I hope this little one does stick and I'm thinking positive especially after reading some posts. Just trying not to Google anything anymore!
It's definately a whole new thing to get your head around.
All the best with your little one. Xx
