brown is normally fine as long as the red blood had stopped it doesnt sound like anything to worry about hun when i mc i had very bad back cramps and my boobs were no longer sore and the bleeding didnt stop i always passed a white clot which was the featus so yours sounds ok to me xx

Hi there. Sorry you're going through this. Bleeding of any kind in pregnancy is hideously scary. How far are you along? How much blood would you say you lost over those 2 hours? It sounds from your post like you've lost a little fresh blood (most likely from your cervix and probably safely away from the baby) which happens quite commonly in the first trimester. If it's already turned brown, it sounds less worrying, especially if it's stopped now.

Having said that, if you are even slightly concerned, give your EPU a call and they will book you in for a reassurance scan. My gut instinct says you would have had more blood loss which would have got heavier if it was anything too sinister, but you know your own body.

It's also worth mentioning that sex and sometimes bowel movements can cause a little cervical bleeding. Not sure if this applies, but thought I'd say it just in case. I hope everything settles down for you. X

Really sorry to hear that jaylee. Big hugs. I hope the physical bit is over quickly for you and you have plenty of support in RL. Be kind to yourself in the days and weeks to come.
