Cramping, bleeding and HCG of 55. Lost all hope

Chloe

Just looking for any miracle stories to cheer me up, even though I’m 99% sure of my outcome it doesn’t hurt to remain positive!

I had an early scan today, due to previous ectopic and 3 miscarriages. Date of conception puts me at about 5w 3d but I don’t temp, only use OPKs.

I started having brown discharge (tiny amount) when wiping early hours of Saturday morning after a HORRENDOUS 24 hour sickness bug. I spent all that time straining throwing up so wondered if that could have brought the spotting on as initially I had no pain.

Anyway, by last night, it had turned bright red and today it’s heavier/I’m cramping. It feels like a miscarriage.

Still went to my scan, told her everything, she couldn’t see anything in my womb apart from a small bleed (hematoma?) No surprise she couldn’t see anything else with how early I am. My lining had thickened though, but ‘not as much as they expect’. They took blood and HCG is 55 which I know is low. I have to go back on Wednesday to see how my numbers increase or decrease!

Anybody had a similar experience with a positive outcome?!

PS - my LMP puts me at 6 weeks tomorrow which is why my EPU scanned me today. I’m being guided by them. They have all my history. Just before anyone asks why I was scanned that early!
