I've had 2 miscarriages previously and have never gotten this far. At 5 weeks I started spotting brown discharge. This seems to be worse when I have been on my feet all day at work. It is only when I wipe, and not every time. Yesterday I had a bowel movement and was straining a bit, and I had red/pink when I wiped. This settled and nothing for the rest of the day until I opened my bowels later (not straining) and it was pink again with a drip in the toilet bowl. This morning it is brown again. I've had some mild cramping about 4 days ago but this has settled now. I have my early scan today, but just wondered if anyone else has had spotting for this length of time and not miscarried?
