Spotting and pain at 6 weeks? Will 111 do anything??

Hello

I am 6 weeks pregnant with my 2nd child. I have had on and off period type cramps for weeks but assumed they where normal. I went to the toilet about an hour ago and when I wiped there was brown blood on the tissue. I put a pad in and since then I have very lightly spotted brown/red blood on it, its not heavy at all and no clots or anything. I am having these mild period cramps still though.

I had this in my last pregnancy (I have heavy bleeding but no pain, luckily I went through and had a healthy baby) When I phoned 111 last time they told me to come to the hospital where I spoke to a doctor about the bleeding etc and then I went home. They then booked me in for an internal scan the following day (as EPU was closed)

If I call 111 what are they likely to do? The same? Will they give me a scan now rather than making me wait until Monday? I am really concerned but do not want to waste my time.

In exactly the same position as you. 7 weeks 5 days. Period like pain and spotting. Mine has being going on from 10am, tbh I'm not v hopeful. Have epu scan Monday

Give them a call. At 4 weeks I had strong cramps and light bleeding. 111 sent me to Urgent care and a quick urine test diagnosed a UTI. Hadn't even crossed my mind! Hope you are ok Thanks
