Should I be worried? Spotting brown / pink blood 4 weeks pregnant

Hey ladies
I took a clearable digital test on Sunday and it came back 1/2 weeks pregnant. I was super excited and I told my DH who was also thrilled but then later in the afternoon I started spotting brown blood really lightly but definitely there and all day and then today Ive had the same with some pink blood this evening. I took a normal clear blue test and the positive line was super super faint which freaked me out as I never had spotting in my first pregnancy and then I took a digital test this evening to make sure and it came back pregnant - I was massively relieved but Im still really concerned about the spotting.
I have a condition which makes it really hard to have children, my toddler is a total blessing and having two would just be amazing and so lucky but because I didn't have spotting before Im worried something is wrong. Did anyone else have spotting and things were ok?

@cygnet2 if it helps, I had brown and pink discharge all through week 5... very common, just old implantation blood x

Thanks @33muma it definitely does help to know because I never had it with my first and it's so difficult for us to fall pregnant I was worried I was losing this one. I'm going to keep taking tests every day for a bit to make sure I think but thanks for replying it makes me feel better knowing other ppl have it and things can be ok

@cygnet2 hope you’re ok. I’ve had it from both sides in my 1st pregnancy I had some brown spotting at 4 weeks which eventually turned to bright red and ended in an early miscarriage.
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and this time I had spotting at 7 weeks and absolutely terrified myself because of before but all was well.

@theresaplaceforus do you mind me asking if the red came shortly after the spotting for you? Or was it a couple of weeks later ? I'm sorry for your loss and congratulations on your current pregnancy x

@cygnet2 it was probably a couple of hours afterwards and then began to get heavier over the next day or two x
