    Hi, I took a hpt and it was positive. Then 5 days later I got heavy
    Bleeding with chunks in it. My husband said that maybe I'm not pregnant and its just my period. But I have no pain. What do I do? I Have a doctors appointment Monday.

    Would this be about the time for your period? When you read the hpt, did you follow the directions exactly... reading the results in the time frame stated?

    If so, a positive is a positive... so it could be things are perfectly fine. Some wome will have some bleeding in early pregnancy.

    Unfortunately, it could also be a possible miscarriage. You won't always necessarily have pain. Many women will have an early miscarriage and never even know it; assuming it is just their period.

    When you go to the doctors they will do another urine test in office and likely order a blood test as well to confirm.

    Easier said than done, but try not to worry.

    Yes I followed them right I even watched it :-) and it's a week after I'm meant to have my period. I'm just worried my husband and I really want a baby.

    Thank you

    Try to think of a miscarriage that early (very common) as sometimes nature's way of doing the right thing. Worry isn't good for the whole process. Be patient. Think of all the women who get pregnant right after they stop trying and start adoption!
