Hi
I've had a round of ivf and I am 5 weeks 4 days pregnant

A few days ago I noticed I started to get brown discharge
Sometimes it's light and some days it's dark and quite a bit there
It's day 3 now and it's still happening
I called my nurse who said it's nothing to worry about unless it's fresh blood

I'm really worried tho
My first scan is in 2 weeks and I know I should I keep doing pregnancy test.

Has anyone experience this?
How long does it last for?

Any advise very much welcomed
Thanks

The nurse is right, brown is old so it's just implantation and your body adjusting. I had this and scan confirmed all well at 6.5 weeks. And don't keep doing pregnancy tests, they are not indicative of progress (I was testing strong positive even after a miscarriage)

Thank you

Sorry bit personal

A few days. And yes it was brown, not red or pink.
