TMI PICS! Spotting?

Arrrgh, help is this spotting? I had this yesterday a couple of times in the evening, nothing all day - really dry in fact then this just now. I can’t decide if it’s pink. I think it looks pink/brown on the paper but not when on my finger. So far my discharge has been pretty white and creamy so this is different - more dirty looking (if that makes sense) Is this a cause for concern at 6 weeks? In other news my right boob was swollen until yesterday and hasn’t swollen again today - both boobs still do hurt. Panicking I’m going in to a mc. 😖 I didn’t have any bleeding with my first so massively stressing . Thanks all in adsvance sorry for the tmi pics. Xxx

Just looks within the realms of normal discharge to me. Might U have thrush or something?

From the completely untrained eye this doesn't look like anything to worry about. It could still be implantation bleeding or just a teeny amount of old bloody working it's way out. I had spotting from 4 weeks till 11 weeks and nothing untoward came of it - I'm 25 now. I think of something bad were happening you'd have more than that and it would be darker. That said, I know how terrifying any bit of blood can be.

What an appropriate nickname Fanny! Thank you. Lol. Can you have trush without itching? Aside from this it’s veen virtually dry as a bone down there today. If it was something worse than “normal” would it be continual? Xx

I had this on and off for about 3 weeks and it was red at times too. Back and forth to epu had 2 early scans heartbeat found, swabs taken doctor phoned a week later saying I have a slight infection so on a weeks course of antibiotics which I think may have been the cause of my spotting. Didn't have any symptoms of an infection so was abit out of the blue. X

Oh no Lmj25, I openit clearled up quickly.

I’m not sure I can go to an EPU yet even if I wanted to l. I have my booking appointment on Tuesday and I guess until I go to that I’m not in the systeM.

I’ve got a terrible cough at the moment and I feel it’s really causing strain all around my abdomen and low back - not sure if that could be causing it? All the jolting around.

I had this - happened after straining for a bowel movement. MW said nothing to worry about and turns out it was thrush - no itching or anything but had some swabs done. Must have had an irritable cervix.

It looks like thick discharge which is common in pregnancy.

Mine has been like that before, during, and after being treated for thrush while pregnant. Luckily all the other nasty thrush related symptoms went away.

I've probably gone through 3 years worth of panty liners whilst pregnant.

Yikes LeighaJ three years worth?! I don’t remember having this the first time around. I’ve also felt a lot more sick this time so I guess every time is different.

Thanks for all the reply’s everyone. I’m so nervous about it all. I don’t know how I’m going to last 9months.
