Hi all,

Would really appreciate hearing some good experiences from people on here.

Got positive test on Saturday- was a bit of a surprise as I wasn't sure if my period had arrived- spotting for about a week before.

Took many a test and all positive.

But the spotting hasn't gone away. It's not a lot -nothing on a pad or on my pants but only when I wipe. Can be anything from brown to pink with the odd red thrown in the mix sometimes. Usually fin the morning then slowly lessens until there is nothing when I wipe at night.

I know it can happen and the advice is not to worry unless there is a lot of blood- which there isn't.

Not really had cramping just a weird "feeling" which could well be normal from what I have read.

I need to stop googling but this is my first and much wanted and am pretty terrified.

Have an early scan booked for a couple of weeks time when I will be 7+2.

Anyone going through something similar now or had experience of this in the past and gone on to have a healthy pregnancy??

Would love to hear from you.

Thanks for reading. Smile

Hi sj all was fine today. Feel so relieved and hopefully can stop worrying for at least a bit! Not long until Thursday now. Hope it goes quick for you and I'll be thinking of you xx

Seahawk that's great news ☺️ bet you're so pleased.

Only a few days for me to wait now. Hope I also get some good news.

Seahawk80 · 13/02/2017 19:00

I hope so too. How is it going? Are you still spotting? Don't worry too much if you are, I didn't stop spotting 100% until 10 weeks.

sj3rram1 · 13/02/2017 19:44

Yeh still happening. It's jut annoying me now and I just want to know one way or the other.

Obviously hoping I'm jut one of the strange ones who bleeds for no apparent or no serious reason.

Some times it seems to get a little heavier but then goes down to barely anything again. Colour varies red - pink - brown.

Hope you have an event and stress free next 20 ish weeks ☺️☺️

I remember that, it's so upsetting when you just want it to stop. I still check my knickers every time I go to the loo! Only one more full day to wait now then it's the day of your scan 😊

Seahawk80 · 16/02/2017 11:40

Good luck today sj

Thanks Seahawk Scan went really well. I have me down at 7+2 baby measuring at 7 exactly. Measuring exactly right for dates and saw the heart beating. So I'm so relieved right now it's untrue. I know it's no guarantee but the sonographer said she could see no reason for the bleeding nothing toward there and maybe just from still implanting. I'll take that. Right size and a heartbeat. That's all I need to know 😍

Seahawk80 · 16/02/2017 20:31

Amazing news! Congrats Grin you can start to get excited now! Once you see a
Heartbeat the risk of anything going wrong is massively reduced, I found that a real comfort.

sj3rram1 · 17/02/2017 07:12

Definitely a comfort. 😊 now I'm a bit obsessed with looking at he scan pic but you can't see much haha 😂

Thanks for all the advise and best wishes c
