Hi ladies I have been obsessed with reading these posts ever since I last fell pg and suffered a mmc back in December 2017. I have recently found out I am pg again at almost 6 weeks.. nearer to af due date I noticed a tiny spotting (light pink), BFP day after af due date then found brown bleeding after a possibly too heavy gym session. Since then a couple of instances of brown spotting after sex but nothing RED.

Experienced pretty bad cramping this morning almost to the point you break a sweat but only for, say, 10-15 seconds then it’s gone.. is this normal?? So paranoid due to previous first pg/mmc as if ignored the signs of cramping (with no bleeding at all) which were similar pains but these pains were same as period cramps in previous.. HELP!! Xx

Sorry about your miscarriage. Sad it may be everything settling down, implantation, I've been having spotting and cramps on off for 3 weeks now ended up having swabs taken and I've got an infection so think that's what's been causing mine. If you're really worried Is there any chance you could get referred to your epu? X

Hi Lmj25 congrats on the pregnancy, I hope all goes well with you!

I called epu the day I experienced the brown blood, they advised shouldn’t be too alarmed unless it’s red. Explained too early to tell and advised to wait until I’m around 6 weeks to take another test? (Not sure what this will achieve regardless as hcg levels are likely to be detected as they were in previous mc). Holding on until Tuesday to the doctor, hoping all is okay! Xx
