It's a lovely supportive thread xx

@DBS94 no cramping or pain just this xx

@xttcbabyno1x try not to worry, I had loads of this around 7-9 weeks with my second baby and was convinced it was all over but she is here now lying in my arms. It's so scary though I really feel for you. Sending lots of luck and positivity!

That looks like very very old bloody discharge. Not concerning lovely

@tootiefruitie6 thank you so much I really hope that's the case for me, honestly terrified xxx

@Mummyme87 thank you so much I really hope so xx

I had this around this time. A bit more in fact. It was just before I went for an early scan and I was terrified. Wasn't an issue though and all was fine. If it continues though get it checked.

@bookworm1982 thank you so much maybe it's more common than I realise I obviously saw it and panicked. I had an early scan 2 weeks ago and all was fine but was internal and wondering if that caused a slight bleed? I've panicked and booked another private ultrasound for this evening xxx

I had brown spotting for 2 weeks straight in the early stages of my pregnancy and my 8 month old is currently sat on my lap watching the Teletubbies!

@Jenhen89 thank you so much, there's nothing when I'm wiping now so praying that was it, but of course it's sent me into a panic. Thank you though that makes me feel a little less worried xxx

@xttcbabyno1x I had red spotting and heavier bleeds on and off from 6 weeks. He's 2 and half now and currently sat next to me on the sofa watching cocomelon.

Try not to worry. Easier said than done I know (I panicked every single time) but hopefully the scan this evening will be able to reassure you.

I'm the same, I'm 8+6 and on Wednesday I woke up and went to loo, it was very very light pink when I wiped. Then it started to get less and less (still panicking), on Thursday I woke up and still very light pink when I wiped, and I thought it was going, then at 3pm it was darker pink and more of it, then it went back to really really light pink again, and same this morning light pink - all of this only when I wipe and not on a liner/pad. I've been quite crampy and had pulling feelings for the last month, and nothing is different. The doctor has told me to just not do much at all and rest as much as possible. I'm PETRIFIED it is the start of a MC. I'm also really constipated (4/5 days now) so I don't know if that is also making me feel worse. I'm up and down feeling slightly nauseous - but nothing bad.

This is my first baby, and I don't know what is normal/not normal. Everything I read is 'this is totally normal, don't worry OR it could be really serious!'. I don't know how a miscarriage would start and I assume it's different for everyone. Any ideas? :( x

This sounds exactly like me!!

I've been really constipated and last Saturday I went and managed to go to the loo, straight away after wiping I noticed light pink (from the front) which continued for 2 days and turned brown. Then again last night went to the loo and had pink. I think it's irritation and if you're constipated you can be quite swollen down there which can effect the front xx

It is grim, isn't it! It's just on and off at the moment, and always been pink so far, I thought it was going yesterday until 3pm when it I got more pink again when I went to the loo. I'm taking sachets of stuff for constipation, but not working! Let me know how you get on x

Just for anyone who sees this, we went for a private scan to check everything and baby was fine

We heard the heart beat 169bpm and is measuring as it should! No signs of bleed so was old blood xx

So pleased 🥰 xx

Wonderful! See, we told you! 😘😘😘 congratulations xxxx

Thank you!! Had some more last night so got a bit freaked again but fingers crossed all okay as was brown again xx

Aww glad to read all is ok OP

I hhave been having this on and off and currently 17 weeks can feel some quickening now too hope that provides some hope, but i still get anxious every time it happens 😂

@blibbyblobb thank you so much! Gives me some reassurance! I didn't realise this part of pregnancy would be so scary! X

@xttcbabyno1x I'm so pleased your scan was OK xx. I've called my GP again and she's sending me for a scan, just waiting on when, but should be next couple fo days. Mine has definitely got a bit worse, it's been 6 days now. I just want to know :( xx
