Brown spotting - 4 weeks

Hi all,

I'm bang on 4 weeks pregnant - my period would have been due today.

Got my BFP a few days ago and the line has been getting steadily stronger each day, including this morning.

I've been to the loo (it's morning here) and noticed a smudge of brown discharge and then more the second time I went.

Is this totally normal or should I be concerned? I didn't have it with DS.

Either way there's not much I can do at this early stage right? 😕

Any advice/reassurance gratefully received...

Considered normal. General advice is don't be alarmed unless the blood is bright red and flowing. It's probably just implantation bleeding. Congratulations, by the way! :D

I had this. All was well. It's likely to be implantation bleeding. Don't worry unnecessarily.

And congratulations!

Thanks v much ladies,I really appreciate it! Hopefully it's nothing major. I'd forgotten how stressful these early weeks are!

I had this too and I think all fine, only lasted a few days and then went but some women have spotting all the way through pregnancy.
