Brown spotting at 6 weeks

Hello all, I've been spotting really small amounts of brown blood since Sunday afternoon. I'm now 6+2 weeks. It's mostly only when I wipe and not every time, but there does seem to be more of it in the past couple of days. The dr sent me to the epu on Tuesday and we saw a heartbeat (yay) but I really just want the spotting to stop. I have another reassurance scan in a couple of weeks and it can't come soon enough. Just want to make sure everything is okay. Spoke to the doctor again today as i am a bit anxious of it going on for so long and she said that i just need to wait and see. Has anyone else had this that went on for some time?

Spotting is quite common in early pregnancy. Brown spotting is ok, bright red is more worrying. Try not to worry about it (easier said than done, I know!).

I had brown spotting at five and six weeks on 3 separate occasions and all has been fine. I am now 32 weeks.
