Any positive stories about spotting?

Any positive stories about spotting for a few days? I started spotting last week on and off just a light yellowy brown, it's still there sometimes when wiping, I'm around 7 weeks now and scan next Tuesday. I just can't help but worry xxx

Yep I had spotting for a few days at 6 weeks. 33 weeks now. it's very common. When I did have a MC, the spotting progressed to bleeding within a day.

I had spotting around the same time, rang 111 who sent me to a n e in the early hours of the morning. Everything was fine and my LO celebrates her 5th birthday next month.

My sister in law had spotting that turned to a heavy bleed, my niece is now 3!!

Yes, I had this, and that baby is now an adult!

I spotted all the say through pregnancy with DD1. She's off to school next week!

I had an early MC between DDs1 and 2 and that was very different, a proper gush of red.

I have had on off spotting accompanied by cramps. Had a scan at EPU at 6.5 weeks and all was fine and they could see a small area of bleeding below the fetus. Definitely see if you can get a scan at EPU for reassurance. I felt much better afterwards.

Yep! Had brown spotting which turned into some pink for about a week, DD is now 13 months and destroying the living room as we speak 💕

I had some light bleeding. It turns out it was a small haematoma. Baby is doing well and is four months old now.

Have you ever had to have a colposcopy?
I ask because I had some spotting early on and they said it was the scar tissue becoming irritated where the cervix was stretching and baby was fine.

I had spotting/bleeding with my youngest. Went to ED, scan five days later - he’s now nine and “helping” me pack for our upcoming holiday 😁

Yes loads of bleeding first trimester, she is now 5!

Yes a son that's about to turn 9 soon. It happened at least twice that I can remember. I hope all is ok for you

What date is your scan @BabyUxX?

I understand your worry, but bleeding and spotting in early pregnancy is very common.

It won't stop you panicking, of course. I was sure it was all over when I saw a little bleeding/spotting but it was fine. I was so happy and really surprised when there was a heartbeat.

You could see if the provider could move your scan a few days earlier to alleviate your worries.

I had spotting from 6-8 weeks. Started brown then turned red. Am now 18 weeks and everything ok. Not sure where the bleed come from.

I had bleeding from 11 weeks until 22 weeks

Now 24

I had a massive heavy bleed at 12 weeks, I had to use towels to go to A & E then on and off spotting until 22 weeks. My daughter is now 11.

Yes!

I had spotting and light bleeding in first trimester. Went to my obgyn for a scan and all looked good, but I was put on progesterone just in case.

It's very common to have some spotting, but always good to get it checked out if you want some reassurance.

Good luck

Yes, I had this and all was fine. I was told it was leftover blood from implantation

I spotted in 1/3 of my healthy pregnancies (my others weren't healthy). I think it's really really common though, OP.

Yes spotting bleeding lots a&e visits and scans when bright red blood first thing in morning so scary but son now 5 hope all okay x

Mother of 5, spotting in all pregnancies.

I had light brown bleeding from 6-10 weeks and all was fine. DD is 17 months now 😊

I had spotting at 6 weeks followed by a heavy bleed and again at 8 weeks my DC is fast asleep next to me x

Yes I had brown spotting on and off for most of my first trimester, I had a scan at the hospital and they couldn’t see a reason why. I also had a little red bleeding at 17 weeks. Really scary as I have miscarried before and in my last successful pregnancy I never bled once.

I think it’s just one og those things sometimes - I am now 20 weeks with a healthy baby girl in there x
