Brown/Pink Spotting

I am currently 5+2, and today my belly have felt stuffed especially my lower belly.

but I have had some pink spotting after a BM this morning and some brown spotting after a light walk into town. This is a IVF pregnancy and I am wondering if anyone have experienced the same?

I am so on edge all the time, my viability scan is booked for 16th November.

I done IVF too! Congrats Thanks
I had exactly the same, at the same time as you.
Everything was fine.
Pessaries can irritate the cervix causing some spotting.
Long as you aren't filling a pad and bright red.

I to have spotting after bowel movements , pretty much every time I go! Been having this since about 5 weeks and I'm now 8+. I had am early scan and all was fine, I think the cervic becomes very sensitive and easily iritated due to hormones etc

Brown spotting is also usually nothing to worry about I've been told , as it's usually left over blood 😊

And congratulations! Flowers

I had the same as you started at 5+6 after an internal scan at 5+5 had the browny/pink discharge for about a week and I had another scan 2 weeks later and all completely fine. Mine were while I was constipated so was straining myself. Read online when your straining for toilet everything pushes abit down there it’s probably just old blood leaving the uterus.

Mine last two pregnancies were not IVF however you can never be sure with bleeding but spotting can often be nothing and everything is fine. I had bleeding in both pregnancies, both more than just spotting and everything was conpletely fine. But i would say bleeding shouldnt be ignored and if you feel like you want to get checked out go.

From 5 weeks, for around 2 weeks, I had quite a bit of brown discharge. I have since also had a few bits of pink discharge. I had a scan in the early pregnancy unit after raising my concern with the doctor and the scan showed baby was fine and we saw the little heart beat. Turned out I had a very small subchorionic hematoma (bleed around the gestational sac) which I was told was nothing to worry about.
Maybe get it checked out to put your mind at rest!
Best wishes for your pregnancy xx
