Hello. If you haven't done so already, you will need to get your pregnancy confirmed by your ob-gyn. You will also need to let your doctor know about the bleeding and cramping. It is possible that you are having a miscarriage or have an ectopic pregnancy and such a situation needs immediate medical attention. Even if you did miscarry, your pregnancy test would remain positive until the pregnancy hormone is out of your system. So, call your ob-gyn now and tell them what is going on as you may need to go to urgent care.

If you have any questions, let me know.
