Brownish spotting at day 12

Hi ladies ,

Does anybody has the experience of browning discharge? I have my blood test tomorrow and last night when I was wiping I noticed kind of dark brown discharge and some cramping , I am panicking, since it’s too late to be considered as implantation discharge. Do you think that the cycle has failed 😔😔😔 has any body experience of this and positive result? ,last time I had light brown discharge at almost around the same time for my FET that leaded to chemical, but didnt look like the same colour , this time I did 3 days embryo transfer , fresh cycle and has symptom of severe OHSS which got really better , i am also using progesterone capsule ( vaginal ) . So anxious, thanks for advising 🙏🏼

Hi lovely, i had this first cycle on day 12 which unfortunately was unsuccessful. But a friend of mine had the EXACT same this cycle, day 11-13 of her IVF and it turned out to be a BFP! Shes currently 9 weeks pregnant.

Just goes to show everyone is so different. Sometimes it can be the embryo burying itself further in the lining. I really hope this is the case for you! Good luck! 🤞🏼 xx

Hi, I called to my doctor, she said it could be your period or implantation bleeding, or just old blood in uterus, we have to wait till tomorrow,

All the luck to you too xxx , fingers cross for both of us 🤲🏻🤞🏼

I had brown discharge when I was about 6 weeks pregnant and was so worried. Spoke to clinic and they said it was most likely the progesterone pessaries because they can irritate the cervix. It is likely the progesterone, I think it’s really common for it to cause some brown discharge. I was convinced I was going to lose the baby but everything was fine and now 22 weeks pregnant.

Good luck for your test 😊

Best of luck. Should have said, I had cramping before my test date too. It is such a hard journey but there are so many success story. After our first round (we didn’t even get to transfer) I thought we would never have success yet here we are. I think the positives get lost because people look for support more during the hard time and good times get lost. Have everything crossed for you xxx

Yes exactly it’s such a hard journey and 2ww I found it the hardest time in my life I had 3 negative transfer and it’s really hard to believe that it will work this time , but try to stay strong and positive, 🤞🏼Thanks :xx
