5 weeks 5 days pregnant brown discharge

[Natasha2012]

as above today I have brown when wiping , this has happened a few times today . I’m also cramping aswell which has come on out of nowhere . I don’t have my scan with the clinic until Tuesday for reassurance so if anyone has any experience of this please can you let me know ❤️ xxxx

I do! I’ve had lots of spotting in my successful 3 live births even fresh blood with clots ( I’ve also had a late loss as well as 6 early losses and currently 4 weeks pregnant) The midwife always said brown blood wasn’t a concern even a bit of red as long as not having severe abdominal pain. A few twinges and small cramps can be normal as things are stretching. I know it is scary. Yours definitely not out especially as it’s not full flow ( the difference I had with pregnancy spotting vs miscarriage is it was very painful and once the bleeding started it didn’t stop it got heavier till it had gone) I’m wishing you the best lots of women spot but have healthy babies xx

I had bleeding and cramping in the early stages. It is very common and i was told that the fact it is brown and you only noticed it when wiping means that it is old blood and shouldnt be too worried (easier said than done 🙄) For me it related to going to the toilet and even without straining it would cause the blood vessels in my cervix to burst. Get on the prunes just in case.

Hi Natasha, I had brown spotting with my first at 6wks and more of a bright red spotting early on with my second around 7wks.. my first is now 2yrs 7m and second is 11wks :)) it doesn’t ever stop getting scary when you see blood during pregnancy, but I was told that it was likely to be implantation bleeding and brown blood also means that it’s old blood. It’s always best to get any kind of bleeding checked out though. Try to keep yourself as busy and distracted as you can until Tuesday. Sending loads of love xx
