Hi ladies, wondering if anyone has been through the same. I started to experience very very small brownish discharge when going to the loo last night and today it has gotten a little heavier and darker. Has anyone experienced this before I have added images of last night and today? Sorry for the images if they are TMI. I am really worried have gotten blood test yesterday and will get more on Monday to check HCG. Maternity hosp can’t do anything as under 6 weeks.

Oh it's hard isn't it! Unhelpfully, my answer is possibly. I filled a tampon with brown blood in fifteen mins and thought I was def miscarrying but didn't. While a friend started off with brown bleeding at 10 weeks and then progressed to red and did miscarry. So there's still hope at the moment I'd say!

Thank you. I haven’t had any more blood since 11 this morning but have mild cramping and back pain. I don’t feel pregnancy symptoms anymore nausea or breast tenderness so I think it might be. I will no more when bloods come back. Fingers crossed I am like you 🤞🏼

I had this and my little one is now 3. I hope it all works out ok for you.

Honestly OP? It could go either way and there is no way of knowing.

Both of my miscarriages started like that, but other posters have gone on to have heathy babies after seeing brown blood.

I’m glad you’re having bloods done to hopefully get an answer either way. Fingers crossed for you x

Thanks so much ladies, I never experienced this on my first baby so just wanted to see has anyone been through similar. It’s so scary 🥺
