So here's the low down.
Thank the heavens the bleeding lasted hardly and hour and has so far vanished without a trace, we did head to minor injuries first thing in the morning as Mrs HT was right...
The sickness returned with a vengeance and I was convinced that some harm had come to baby from the hydration and caused the bleeding.

They done their tests, poked and prodded me and in fact I was very happy that this particular Dr was very thorough and found that everything seemed to be in order just a little low on sugar and sleep and very slightly dehydration. He upped my medication to something I don't swallow, as that was actually irritating my stomach he feels, its called prochlorperazine and I slip it between my lip and gum for 2hrs till it dissolves. I'm to mix water with other drinks such as milk, orange juice and decaffe cola as water alone was refusing to stay down even when sipped and eat 20 minutes before I try to drink anything.
So far its working... I think. Last night I drank plenty of watery cola and ate chicken and rice... and a sausage roll...and some crisps.
I lost a stone and a half in under a month in my missed miscarriage pregnancy and I feel it was because I didn't get help when ill and I eventually lost the baby. This week I already dropped from 133 to 127lbs.
I hate having to take meds while pregnant, unfortunately I've always been a very sickly person and I'm no stranger to antisickness tablets on a non morning sickness basis, but I can't take the risk of loosing this baby.
Normally at this time of day I'm sofa bound and trying to to be sick again, but I'm about to try some buttery crackers followed by a vitamin shake.

The Dr had also refereed me to a Early Pregnancy Unit to have an early scan to put my mind at rest but so far even though I have been chasing them they still haven't manged to book me a date and keep saying they will ring me back. If by Wednesday they still can't figure out how to make an appointment for me I'm just going to stick with the early private scan we arranged.

Thank you to all of you for your support and fingers crossed I have caught this early enough that this will not be a repeat of last year.

So glad to hear good news from you! I hope you're able to get in for that scan too, for some additional reassurance.

Thank you. All of you.
It's very reassuring to have a group of mums abd mums to be who have life experience to offer in these situations. Its difficult as my mother never suffered a moment of nausea and thinks I'm being rather silly but then my mother who I adore has never been very bright on the subject of life.
I'm eating and drinking well today so I'm hopeful this is the worst over with.

So happy you were able to be seen. Those symptoms can fool you and I pray you get your scan soon to reassure you mind. Decrease in weight is also common in trimester one due to nausea and with your situation it seems normal. You are in my prayers and I am looking out on word from you these next few days.
