6 weeks pale pink spotting?

[Potnoodlie]

I’m 6 weeks pregnant with my first pregnancy. I’ve been very constipated but starting eating prunes and orange juice and managed to have a BM this morning. When I wiped I noticed a little pale pink on the tissue and then again some brown discharge, which seems to have slowed down now. Definitely coming from the front! Is this normal? Could it be from straining?

Hi, I'm actually a few days earlier than you, 5+4, but have also had brown and pink discharge and a lot of cramping, however from research have been reassured that this can be completely normal at this stage. From previous pregnancy, I had ongoing brown spotting until about 10/11 weeks pregnant, and he's now 4. If you're 6 weeks have you considered a viability scan?

I am 4 weeks and have the same with bm if it is big (tmi)

Hi all - I’m 6 weeks today and have had exactly the same with a BM. I previously had a cervical ectropion before I was pregnant so hopefully it’s just this. I haven’t had any more bleeding but I do have dull period like cramps. I’ve got an early scan in 2 days. Hoping and praying everything’s fine. How did everyone get on?

@Avocado098 I’m 13 weeks now and had no more bleeding. I had period cramping on and off throughout the first trimester and still get it. I stopped taking pregnancare and took folic acid, vit d and vit c, this really helped my constipation which I think was caused by the iron.

@Potnoodlie thanks so much. Glad to hear you’re all good, fingers xd for the same :) thanks for replying. Take care xx

@Avocado098 i did have a scan at 6 weeks shortly after I first posted too and saw a heartbeat which was really reassuring, the EPU scanned me after I said I had some bleeding 🙂
