6 weeks pregnant - what counts as spotting? :(

[catlovingbeth]

I’m 5/6 weeks pregnant and this afternoon have had some light bleeding. Not enough to show on a pad or in the toilet, but a small amount bright red when I wipe. Is this spotting? How heavy would it have to be to be more than spotting? Anyone had any good news after this?

I had a pinkish red when wiping. Turned out to be a haematoma (bruise) DS is asleep on my lap (10 months)

Try not to worry, hope everything will be fine.

Always worth getting any bleeding checked with your EPU, but I had bleeding throughout the first 13 weeks of both of my pregnancies and while it absolutely terrified me each time, there was no cause for concern 😊
But do get it checked to be safe!
