Super common in early IVF pregnancies! Brown suggests old blood - my clinic said they wouldn’t be concerned unless it was full red flow that filled more than a standard pad in 24 hours. I bled at 5 weeks and everything was fine!

I bled from about 7 to 13 weeks, it was so so stressful, I was on edge basically the whole time. Some was brown, some bright red. It does happen in some pregnancies with no issues and is apparently more likely to happen in IVF pregnancies (no one warned me about this). I really hope this is what is happening with you. Brown blood usually means old so it could be implantation or something else, unfortunately only time will tell. I would always advise to contact your clinic with any concerns, they're more able to advise than people on peanut as each situation is going to be so different. Good luck 🤞🏻🥰
