Hey everyone, I’m 6w 4d today with my first pregnancy.
I rang the midwives and told them I have some light pink / brown discharge on the tissue when I wipe after peeing. Started happening last night and continuing this morning. I also have mild cramps but I’ve had them since I found out I was pregnant.
The midwife said she’s not too worried at the moment even though it can be worrying but she said it’s quite normal. Can’t go for an early scan because I’m still quite early on in the pregnancy. But if it gets heavy, she told me to go A&E or ring back if it gets to a point I have to wear a pad.
Just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat? Because I’m really trying not to panic or freak out.
Thank you 🤍🥺

If you can then book an private early pregnancy scan, will put your mind at ease!

I had the same thing when I was pregnant 5 weeks and it lasted for 4 days. Turned out it was implantation bleeding and went away on its own

I had this too, it’s hard not to worry but try to relax it can be very normal! If you are super worried get checked out just to ease your mind 😊

I’ve woken up to the same this morning - I’m 5 weeks 6 days. I’ve also had similar advice but can’t help but worry. I did have some bright red blood though which looks worse than what you’ve got - but it’s calmed down now and lighter?

I had this too! It was my 4th pregnancy after miscarriages so I was so scared. I rung up an got booked in for an early scan as I didn’t know how far along I was (5weeks+3) an it went away on its own within a day x
thanks Maddie, just booked in for tomorrow somewhere local to me. 🤞🏽x
thanks for replying Imelda, that’s reassuring to hear. I’m trying not to panic! X

I had heavy bleeding last week. Bright red and clots. Doctors were sure I was miscarrying even though it was just the once. They got me in for a scan today just to see what was going on. They could barely see anything, but they were able to confirm I was around 5 weeks and everything was okay and there was a small flutter for the heartbeat. Might be worth phoning your doctors and getting an appointment as it was my GP who referred me Monday for today's scan. I've got light pink bleeding today and they're not concerned too. Xx
honestly! I’m trying not to stress and freak out for the sake of the baby but can’t help it 🥴 booked an early private scan for tomorrow so hopefully 🤞🏽 everything goes well! X
It’s scary isn’t it. I’ve booked an early scan for tomorrow, maybe you can do the same when you’re at 6w? Luckily mines gotten lighter / kinda disappeared now! X
Thanks Kacey, that makes me feel a lot better. The spotting has seemed to calmed down now. I’ve booked an early scan anyway for tomorrow for my own reassurance. So sorry to hear about your previous MC’s. 🤍

Awh good! And it’s always better to be safe and to also put your mind at ease
💓💓
aw I’m so glad to hear everything is ok with you and baby! It’s super scary as soon as you see blood and so easy to panic yourself into a dark place 🥺. I’m booked in tomorrow for an early scan! Hopefully all is well 🤞🏽🤍 xx

I'm glad you managed to get in for a scan. Keeping my fingers crossed that all is good for you. Definitely scary and I've been in a dark place for sure. Thankfully have relief now. Hopefully the same for you too xx

Iv had pink spotting since Friday and I’m currently 6+6 Iv had a scan Monday and baby was fine with a little heart beat Iv been put on progesterone as Iv got a history of miscarriages to help support the pregnancy… Iv also been having cramps on and off since I found out like my period is coming xx

I have Pink discharge currently in the hospital due to something else and im getting an ultrasound to check as they see pink discharge in my urine.

Yes it is. I actually had an early scan yesterday, everything was ok and they even saw a flutter of the heartbeat - which is why I don’t understand why I woke up bleeding today. But it’s virtually stopped now and got lighter ? Not sure if that’s a good sign or not? Hope your scan goes well tomorrow, keep us posted. Xx

I had this too for about 4 days. I went to A&E and they arranged an early scan at 6 weeks. All was fine 😊 they suspected it was implantation bleeding even though I had known I was pregnant for a few days before it all started!

I've woken up exactly the same today, thinking of you xx

How are things today? Been thinking about you x
Oh, that’s so sweet, thank you. 🥺 my appointment is at 4pm so will definitely update once I get seen. 🤍🤍
Hey everyone. Just got back from my scan - Everything is ok! 🤍 nurse said the spotting is more thank likely just implantation bleeding which is normal at this stage because I’m actually a week earlier than expected! So I’m around 5-6 weeks not 7w tomorrow! I get to go back next week for a free heartbeat scan 🥰 I’m over the moon 🤍

That is amazing news!! I'm so glad it was good news for you! ❤️
thanks Emma! 🤍🥰
