Hi everyone,

I'm just looking to share experiences and see if there's anything I can do to get an answer about my spotting.

I've had brown spotting since I got my BFP at 4 weeks. I had an early scan at 7 weeks, everything fine no reason for the spotting. My consultant (desperate to the pregnancy - following surgery for endometriosis and a polyp removal 3 months ago) prescribed cyclogest pessaries. Actually they stopped the spotting for a few days.

Fast forward to this week, I had some pink spotting one evening, heavier than it's usually been. I went to the EPU the next day, heartbeat, baby bang on schedule 9 weeks 6 days. Came home, had more pink spotting that evening, again a bit heavier. Now it's settled to very light spotting.

I literally can't relax, nor can I stop googling. Anyone else had similar experiences?

Have you been tested for thrush or another infection? My spotting has been caused by thrush twice.

Thanks @Kellaree18 I haven't thought of that. Did you need to go to your GP?

I was tested the most recent time at the Antenatal unit but I don't see why a GP wouldn't be able to do it. Perhaps ring your MW for advice? I was swabbed and received my results a few days after in the post.

They gave me a pessary and cream and fingers crossed my spotting my stopped since :)
