Ring your local early pregnancy unit and ask for advice. I know they say spotting can be normal but it’s best to put your mind at rest! Wishing you all the best x x

Keep an eye on it over 48 hrs rest up and if it increases or you start getting pain ring them again there's nothing you can do apart from rest and keep an eye hun. Try not to worry it can be very normal 💗🤗😘

Another lady I talk to had this at your stage she's now 17 week xx

It's normal to worry hun. Everything will be fine. There's people out there that have full on fresh blood and clots and be fine. Your discharge is old blood and I remember my friend saying it's most likely the placenta taking it's full on roll now just imbedding more. Keep strong and if it gets too much ring them again or go hospital. Trusting everything will be fine lovely 💗🤗😘

Hey dear , no discharge today it’s stopped from yesterday evening around 7. But still am worried and thinking to go for private scan . It’s was only very tiny hint of colour but still it’s freaking me out .thanks for asking

I think I would do that too to be honest! I’ve already found a clinic near me that do them for £55 and then do a reassurance scan for £39. I’m hoping that it’s all fine and your little miracle is dancing and waving in there! Let us know how you get on x x x

Ya I am thinking to go for a reassurance scan , but my husband says I worry too much for nothing . I don’t know what do I do . May be I should go with out telling him ,😝. But the discharge has stopped from Saturday, it’s just a day I got for 3 times .

Hi luv2017. Only just read this. I'm wondering if you have been using progesterone pessaries vaginally, you can get some residue collect by your cervix. Wondering whether this is coming away with the normal liquid discharged by the cervix at this time in pregnancy. There is always a chance of mild infection or irritation, but it would be smelly if it was. We all know our own smells, so if you're worried, obviously speak to your midwife. Thinking of you. Diane

I don’t use any thing vaginally or I don’t get any smell. The discharge has stopped from Saturday evening, so it was just 3 times I saw a very very light brownish tint with white discharge. Hope it gets settled . Thanks

Hi luv2017. Just sounds like the effect of extra oestrogen produced by your cervix, which is quite OK. Diane

Hi luv2017. You said that it's now settled down, so no real need if all was well at the 12/40wks scan. Up to you. Diane

Hi luv2017. You're a third of the way through your pregnancy now, so try and enjoy it, bless you. You've been through a lot, so no wonder you're anxious, but all does seem to be OK to me. just check with your midwife if you are still worried. Diane
