Day 9 of spotting (6 weeks pregnant)

Hi all, my first post here so feeling a little nervous!

I started spotting brown/pink discharge a week last Friday. Occasionally I also had streaks of fresh red blood on the tissue. Not a lot, but enough to make me panic. I went for a scan at the EPU last Monday and they said I was measuring 6w0d which is exactly where I thought I was. They found a good heartbeat and CRL was a nice size. The lady scanning me said hopefully the bleeding settles but not to go in again unless I have heavier bleeding. She also said she could find no reason for the spotting, so likely implantation.

The spotting is still going on now.. can implantation last this long? The only way I can describe it now is when you have a cold and burst blood vessels in your nose. That's what it looks like! Bright red mixed in with clear discharge. This is my second pregnancy and I had nothing like this with my daughter. It seems to be worse in the mornings and tail off throughout the day.

Has anyone experienced anything similar?

Thank you xx

Me!
It's gone on 2 1/2 weeks and my epu said just monitor!

Didn't have this with my son so I'm very anxious. I'm 7 weeks now.

Have you any pregnancy symptoms? I have nothing!

It sounds like we are due around the same time then. I'm 7 weeks today! Have you managed to get a scan?

It's so nerve wracking isn't it. I'm trying to stay positive but it's so hard. Does yours seem heavier some days and lighter others?

I've had sore boobs since finding out and occasional nausea. Nothing too horrendous though.

I'm booking a private scan for this week or next as I have no sign apart from a bfp!

It's quite unnerving isn't it...

How old is your dd?

I had no bleeding / spotting in my first pregnancy either so very similar!

We are thinking of doing the same thing! Maybe getting a private scan towards the end of the week just to reassure. I'll end up having one every week at this rate🙈

Have you told anyone about your pregnancy yet? We are supposed to be telling my dh parents this weekend but I'm quite reluctant!

My dd is 19m. Looking back everything with her was plain sailing. Didn't realise how lucky I was! How old is your ds?
