Light orange discharge at 6 weeks - pregnancy after loss

Hi everyone,

I lost my daughter at 20 weeks in February and I'm newly pregnant so I'm obviously really anxious.

I'm around 6 weeks and today I noticed some light orange discharge. I also have mild cramping although I do get that sometimes. I haven't had sex recently.

I have an early reassurance scan booked for next Friday and my GP says there is nothing to do but wait until then, unless my bleeding or cramping increase, or I have pain on one side of the abdomen. She says this could just be normal bleeding due to delicate veins or shifting hormones, or it could be the beginning of a miscarriage.

I guess what I'm looking for is some reassurance! Has anyone experienced this kind of orange discharge and been OK?
