What Causes Spotting Despite A Positive UPT?

I went to the ER on Jan 1st and was told i was pregnant on Jan 22 i started spotting and i continued to spot off and on until the 25th on the 25th i returned back to the ER because i was concerned about me spotting and the ER did two different kinds of ultrasounds and the guy who did the ultrasounds said from wht he could see is that the ER doctors had my due date wrong by two weeks but after i stopped spotting on the 25th the nausea has returned but this time im extremely nauseous, and i have clear discharge coming out of my vagina everytime i use the bathroom and wipe ...yesterday the ER called and told me he thought i probably had a miscarriage.....which has truly scared me because, i still feel pregnant....plus i haven't had my period in 2 months now .....please help .....my pregnancy tests they did on January 1st both came back postive but the urine they did on January 25th came back negative but could it had come back to be negative due to the fact i was spotting????? Please help ease my mind

if on USG, there is no fetal development there might be missed abortion which require termination of pregnancy. spotting is suggestive on ongoing abortion process in your case. u should hv reliable USG done to find out cause of spotting. if it is a threatend abortion, pregnancy can b saved with progesterone support.
