Hi all

As the title says, I'm not 5 weeks and 5 days pregnant and have been spotting for over a week now. Before today is was just brown, this morning it was bright red. Not really getting cramps, it's not enough to cover a pad, and it's on and off all day. I have sore boobs and a very mild nausea but no other pregnancy symptoms.

I guess I'm panicking as I didn't have anything like this with my first (DS now 18 months old). No bleed and I was sick from before I even missed my period. I know every pregnancy is different but I am finding myself getting all in knots and anxious, and googling far too much.

Anyone got any tips on dealing with the anxiety? I do have a private scan booked for Wednesday but I think even if everything seems okay I will still be a complete nervous wreck until 12 weeks.
