Bleeding at 9 weeks

Bled bright red blood (like period blood) on week 8, 6 days. It took a few wipes to clear the blood. Freaked out and went to nuh a&e. Had my first scan and saw the foetus at the right place with a good heartbeat, and good size 🥹 gynae couldn’t tell the reason for bleeding. Prescribed me with progesterone. Now in week 9 and have been spotting consecutively for the past 5 days 😢 worried and hoping that everything is okay. Nervous everytime I need to use the toilet, and anxious for my Week 10 scan next week.

I had a similar experience, mostly heavy spotting. Didn’t know I am pregnant until I did the mandatory pregnancy test when I was at KKH for another issue. They prescribed dydrogesterone, a type of progesterone because the foetus was embedded quite low and it’ll also helped with reducing the bleeding. Been almost a month of taking it twice daily, the bleeding has reduced a lot.
