Hi, I wondered if anyone had any experience of this. Yesterday afternoon I started getting a small amount of brown discharge when I wiped after going to the bathroom. At one point later in the evening it was very pale pink. This morning and throughout the day I’ve had more brown, mucus-like discharge when I wipe. I called my EPU who were helpful but I still feel a bit unsettled about it all. The midwife I spoke to said bleeding is normal in early pregnancy and I didn’t need to come in unless I started bleeding heavily or with clots. She said as I’m pretty early a scan would be pointless and I’d have to wait until I’m 7 weeks. I just feel so worried as I’ve seen on other discussions that this can be an early symptom of miscarriage. I am trying to remind myself that the midwife did say it was normal, I just can’t help but feel worried! Has anyone else had anything like this?

I would go back to the midwife and say you are really concerned. The stress isn't good for you and until you speak to them or another professional your mind won't be put to rest
