So I had some light bleeding 2 days ago only lasted one day then turned brown the next day and seemed to stop yesterday. I had an early scan this morning which showed Im around 5 weeks and that the sack is in the right place. They said they cant see anything, no blood in my uterus and that it may be implantation bleeding. No bleeding today, but now ive just been to the toilet and there pink blood again. Does implantation bleeding start then stop? Im so worried which is horrid as I came home from the scan feeling so reassured. Any stories welcome, thank you!

With my two year old I had implantation bleeding that lasted about ten days (so might have been more than just IB), then more bleeding a few weeks later. It was all ok.

Are you booked in for another scan?

Hi i had bleeding at 5 weeks which was like the kind you get at the end of your period along with light stomach cramps. It was brown so doctor wouldnt send me for a scan so i went private. Had scan at 6 weeks where heartbeat was seen. 3 weeks later i had the same type of bleeding but this time with pinkish tinge when wiping. Panic mode! Went for another scan and thankfully everything was ok again. The sonographer told me she couldnt see anywhere for the bleed to come from and that it was probably coming around the time my period normally does which was true. Happened once again but was lighter each time. I remember the complete terror and constant knicker checking! Your scan was positive which is great news and as difficult as it is try to keep positive. I really regret stressing so much throughout my pregnancy and wish i enjoyed it more especially when i look back and think there isnt much you can do either way. My dd is now 10 weeks btw :)

Hey user1473072700 just wondering how it went? I’m currently going through the same thing, I am exactly 5 weeks today. I noticed very light pink spotting last night and some this morning I’m hoping it’s nothing but I’m definitely very worried.

@CapricornAquarius95 just came across this thread and noticed it was really old so you might be best posting a new one to get more replies Smile I just wanted to reply to you to try and give a little bit of reassurance. I had all sorts of bleeding all the way through my pregnancy, from light to very heavy, starting at around 5 weeks. I’m not sure if the early bleeds were implantation or what but I was eventually diagnosed with a cervical ectropion and was told this is what most if not all of my bleeds will have been caused by. completely harmless to me & baby, just annoying really! I now have a perfectly healthy 14 week old. I remember the worry & it’s not nice, was very all consuming. if you feel it would benefit you try contacting your local epu to see if you can get an appointment there xx
