Lots of women on here experience spotting during the first trimester so hopefully one of them will offer you some reassurance soon. As a rule of thumb brown blood is old blood but should it turn red and/or be accompanied by severe cramping then please consult your gp xx

Thank you !! it's more annoying than anything else.. and worrisome. The Internet is the worst place to look at for information.

I had some brown spotting at 5 weeks, with like period cramps. I was so scared I ended up to EPU as an emergency! But everything was fine. They told me brown spotting is normal.. so try to keep calm and don’t panic (easier said than done). Anyway, if you’re still scared, call your nearest EPU, they’ll be happy to help! Xxx

Feel free to contact me anytime if you want support or you just need someone to talk with! Xxx

Thank you Terry !! you've been great through out this journey !

I thought it could be normal but first Prenatal appointment is next week and I am looking forward for this to be over , its been a couple days and it's annoying more than anything, and of course worrisome because I feel like I am new to this all over again. Thank you,,
