I'm Currently Feeling:  | Bleeding, 5wks, tampon?
Yesterday afternoon I tested with a first response and a clear blue digi and got bfp with both. Was to take a sample to the docs for testing this morning but I am now bleeding - it started light is getting heavier and is red although I only see it when I wipe it isn't transferring to my pants like it would with AF.
I am one week late and think I would only be 5 - 6 weeks preg.
Have phoned docs for some advice but they haven't phone back and I have to go to work soon. This seems like a v silly question but should I put a tampon in? I am trying not to worry and hope the bleeding stops and its not too late but it doesn't look good. I would wear a pad to work but only got panty liners. I am really gutted and not sure how I am gonna cope in work but kind of feel phonin in with an excuse will make everything worse.
Am crossing my fingers so tight that this is not the end. |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | No, dont put a tampon in, just wear panty liners, your doc will be able to take a swab should he need one.
You shouldent wear tampons when you are pregnant, so just stick with the panty liners. |

get yourself to the docs for a checkup, and do not take no for an answer.....if necessary, ask for a scan at your local hospitals early pregnancy unit......
