Spotting at 6 weeks

Just wondered if any one early on is experiencing spotting? I am just starting to get myself in a bit of a state panicking about spotting. It's just been like a tiny bit nearly every day over the last couple of weeks, in my first pregnancy i did a little but I just got told to take it easy basically. Only to worry if it was to the extent of soaking a sanitary towel, it's really not but just pink everytime I wipe (sorry if tmi) like not even wetting knickers. Just wondered if anyone has experienced similar?

Hi,
I’ve had this during my current pregnancy, more with brown blood. Got sent for an early scan and everything was fine. I’m 13+ wks now and fingers crossed all still good.
I’d say call your midwife if you’re concerned, particularly if it gets heavier.
Good luck xx

Had a doctors appointment this morning as slightly heavier. Got an early scan booked for friday morning, not feeling optimistic x

Bleeding/spotting isn’t necessarily anything to worry about (particularly when there is no pain). I had spotting of varying degrees throughout my pregnancy and a huge bleed at one point. Baby was totally unaffected by any of it and is a healthy 5 month old now. I had a scan after most episodes of bleeding and found it really reassuring.

Hope all goes well at your scan. Stay positive!

Thanks @CluelessNewMama needed to hear that really struggling for any positivity at the moment as been bleeding all day.

Just saw this How are you getting on? Very similar to you I'm 6 weeks and have had bits of brown discharge since last Saturday. On Tuesday it was slightly worse and I saw a streak of red. Went to epu same day and saw the sac with yolk but they said too early to see a heartbeat. Still got brown discharge today. This is my second pregnancy. I did have similar with my daughter but don't remember it going on this long

Hey unfortunately I had a miscarriage, i was just 7 weeks. Good news that they saw a sac for you, fingers crossed all goes well. Do you have another appointment for another scan to see if theres a heartbeat?
