10 weeks spotting. Worried

[Clayhugs]

hi! I’m 10 weeks 4 days with twins and just had some spotting when I wiped.

Can anyone offer any reassurance?. I’ll be booking a scan tomorrow I think or going to drs if it continues overnight

Worried sick now! Xx

update: for anyone searching in future. Scan went well. Both babies fine and wiggling away. Don’t know why I spotted but it stopped by end of the following day. 🤞 for no more scares.

Understand how worried you must be. Keep an eye on it - I was told if it turns red, or there's a lot or you get pains or a temperature then don't wait and get some medical advice - your GP or the EPU may be able to help. But if it stays as a little spotting it is also pretty common - I had it throughout my first pregnancy (a singleton) and it worried me sick but it was all fine. Hopefully others will reply and i'm absolutely not trivialising but as you're probably going to be too worried to sleep(!), have a search of the posts and answers on here and you'll find loads of helpful information as this gets asked a lot.

Thank you for your kind reply. Glad all was fine for your wee one. Thank you for sharing that,

I’ve read it’s more common with twins but it’s so hard not to go to worst case. Hopefully it’ll stop by am 🤞🤞🤞 thank you again xx

I had spotting around 6 weeks and around 10 weeks too (could be out slightly with dates, but around then). It was brown, slightly red tinged, not too much, but a bit more than just discharge. All was fine (I did have a small hematoma). Currently 29 weeks with twins x

Thank you for this. And congrats on the twins ❤️❤️ mine is similar to what you described and so far none overnight or this morning so I’m hoping that’s a good sign. 🤞

I had spotting at 10 weeks and rung the EPU, spoke with a lovely midwife who said to monitor it, and that if it soaked a pad to call back but if just spotting it was nothing to worry about and actually between 10-14 weeks is when the placenta implants and so it may well be implantation bleeding from that. It stopped after a couple of days ☺️
