Am i loosing our bean? (TMI) UPDATED
hi ladies, sorry to post a not so happy topic but i need some honest answers and know this is the place to find them! ill explain my story so far....
i found out i was pg 3 weeks ago, last wednesday i started bleeding, just spotting at first gradually getting heavier, but it kept stopping and starting, i was referred to EPAU for an early scan which i had on tuesday morning. At the scan the women said i am measuring 6weeks, she said the sac was in the right place, my overis looked good and that the bleeding WASNT coming from the sac but she didnt know where it was coming from, she said in her opinion it was just too early for heartbeat and to come back in 2 weeks. since then my bleeding has got heavier and there are now small clots. the clots are deep red and wen squished (sorry TMI) they are just blood. i have rung the EPAU and they were useless!
what i was wanting to know is does this sound like the start of a miscarrage? could i have these small clots and everything still be okay?could the clots just be a build up of blood? im just confused and want some straight answers tbh. if this is a miscarrage when will it all hapen?what will the sac look like?iv researched it on the internet but get so many different stories i dont know what to believe! also i already have 2 dd's and have never miscarried before, is this common?
thank you ladies xxxxxxxxxxxxx

first i just want to thank you all for your replies, it really helps and means alot! i rang the EPAU this morning and altho the women was nice they are not very helpful with moving the scan forward fom 12th august. the women said coz i was only scanned on tuesday that another scan wouldnt show anything diff at all, she said not to worry about the small clots unless they get bigger and i start to loose too much blood, then iv to go in not for the baby but for the risk to me. so stuck in limbo land until either something happens or my scan....xxxxx

When I bled I went straight to A+E, no questions asked, and they were lovely. If you are worried, dont wait but go to your local A+E. They will help. Hope all is ok hun xxx

Ive had 2 mc and 2 kids and the one i had heavy bleeding and cramps with was my oldest we boy who was fine, the other mc i had no symptoms at all.
We do always think the worst to protect ourselves but with this you really dont know
Keeping my fingers crossed for you

My brothers Fiance is currently 17 weeks pregnant and from 5-14 weeks she had bleeding most days! They are still unsure now what caused it but she was told like you that it was not coming from the sac, which of course does not stop you from worrying!
Her symptoms sounded very similar to yours and although everyone is different i thought it might put your mind at rest to know that she is ok now, bleeding stopped and little 'lumpy' doing well.
Take care

Im now 12+3 and had my scan on tuesday which was fine....but they did say I had a low lying placenta and this is probably why i had a bleed and it could cause me to bleed again, but all should be well if i do.
Really hope yours is something similar to mine but give them a call and see if you can go and see a doctor....big hugs and lots of luck xx
it was the clots that made me freak out i think i didnt realise these were "normal" xxxxx
