Worried 2nd pregnancy symptoms

Apologies for tmi

I'm 11+4 (2nd pregnancy)
For the last 5 days I've started bleeding (old brown blood) not loads and not all day. Some times it's just pure brown and others it's grainy but no clots.

I've spoken to a midwife who didn't seem too concerned but advised to call my gp (closed) so called 111. To cut a long story short I've had a nightmare getting through to anyone and have pretty much given up trying to get an answer. I still have pregnancy symptoms and no fresh blood which I've heard is a good sign. My 12 week scan is only next week. (I had an early scan at 7 weeks and all was good then)
Has anyone had this or can offer some reassurance?
Thank you xx

Hey!
Congrats!
Yes I had brown blood when I wiped for a week!
2.5 year old currently tucked up in bed!
Brown blood is better than of course bright red, filling a pad.
It’s very common but like you I got a fright when it happened.

Hey, I had this, turned out it was SCH. All was fine. It was even bright red at one point.

Thank you that's already made me feel so much better.
I'm 34 so worried I've left this all a little late!

What is SCH?
