Freaking out...

[silverlini]

So I got my BFP last Wednesday although the line was quite faint. It’s worried me ever since. My boobs have stopped hurting, no more hard bloated stomach...literally nothing. This morning I’ve started to get light brown spotting. I just have a horrible gut feeling it’s all over 😔 I’m going to see if anything else progresses today and then do another test tomorrow with my FMU. I feel so sad already 😔 I just want to know if anyone else has had this happen to them and still gone on to have a healthy pregnancy?

I know lots of ladies on here who have had spotting or bleeding and gone on to a successful pregnancy. My boob tenderness was up and down on different days so don’t read into it too much. Also, are you using progesterone pessaries because they can sometimes cause a bit of vaginal irritation and some spotting. Fingers crossed for you xxx

I swear I’ve driven myself more crazy since I’ve done the test than before waiting!! I use the progesterone the other way (back passage) so I don’t think it would irritate my cervix? I usually get some brown spotting before my period so that’s why it’s freaking me out more I suppose!xx

Oh sweet I’m sorry to hear you are going through such a difficult time.

At this point of the pregnancy your symptoms will come & go ( mine still do now & im 6 weeks) and that is normal. It is still early days.

The fact it’s only light brown brown blood sounds very promising; it’s probably where baby has fully implanted ( they partly implant & between weeks 4-5 fully implant)

I am someone who has suffered a chemical pregnancy. I had a bright red spotting the day after our test which continued into fresh heavy bleeding & losing huge blood clots. I knew I’d lost the baby. Light brown spotting isn’t anything to feel concerned about only if it’s bright red &heavy bleeding.

Lots of women spot in early pregnancy & go on to have healthy babies!

Rest up & I hope it calms down xozo😘

Thank you so much for my message, it’s made me feel a bit better 😘 I think it’s because I’m expecting symptoms and to just feel pregnant. And I don’t at all. Feel completely normal. I actually want to feel sick so I know it’s real! I’m going to try and distract myself at work today although I’m going to be seriously late already! Woops! I’ll just have to wait and see xx

Don't feel sad. I also spotted about a week after my positive test and went on to have a really great pregnancy, with no complications at all

My symptoms would also come and go. I think it's because hormones fluctuate so much during this time.

Keep the faith, look after yourself and I hope you get your little miracle!

Thank you for your message and reassurance! I really hope it’s the same for me too. Only time will tell! I’ll do a test tomorrow and I will ask for a blood test with my clinic xx

Hi, I can totally sympathise with you, I am 6+1 and have had all of these symptoms i had a bit of red bleeding too, symptoms have come and gone since last week but over the weekend has seemed a lot more positive so try not to worry (easier said than done). It might go soon. Good luck

Thank you, I really hope mine is nothing to worry about! ahh this whole thing really messes with your head like big time!x

I had brown spotting the day before otd for about 3 weeks including some bright red blood and clots but got my BFP and i'm currently 15 weeks. At my viability scan they said the spotting was from using the pessaries vaginally so I switched to rectally and part of my lining was a bit irritated. No more bleeding now though. X

Ah I see! I hope that is the case for me then! Although I am using the progesterone rectally anyway so I know that wouldn’t be causing the spotting. Hopefully just one of those delightful pregnancy symptoms!xx
