I'm Currently Feeling: | From what I've been reading some bleeding is common, not to say that it is normal per say tho. If the bleeding gets bad, or if you start getting pains I recommend going to the emergency department. Or... If you find that you are stressing about it, go get checked out, even just to put your mind at ease. They get paid to deal with us "crazy pregnant people" they can suck it up and reassure you. It's easier for them to tell you it's nothing than to tell you it's something because you waited too long to come get checked out.
Best wishes... Keep us posted please. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Hello
I agree with all - just make sure you look after yourself and if you are panicking, please go to A&E.

I'm Currently Feeling: | Any bleed is scary in pregnancy, I bled with both of mine, roundabout 4-5 weeks. I was told it could be implantation bleeding. Still, you should get it checked out, to help you to relax if nothing else. I was told the worrying is worse than the bleeding..... hope everything is ok... x |

| I have a question... I am really worried because a few times when I have gone to the bathroom today I have noticed a light brown tinge on the tp. I don't have any cramping and I called my doctor, he told me that unless I have cramping or heavier bleeding not to worry, just rest. I am freaking though. Has anyone had anything similar happen? I'm 8w5d. Thanks. | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | hi x
I have been having some spotting over the last few days and it has ranged in colours of bright red to a dull brownish ! I saw the mw today and she told me as many as 30% of early pregnancies will have some kind of bleed. I had a scan and all is looking ok at the minute but her advise was never do nothing even if it is the smallest amount get it checked even if its just to put your mind at rest x | | | | Status: Online

I'm Currently Feeling: | You are probably ok as long as the blood isn't getting redder and you're not having terrible cramps but see someone just in case. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Bleeding can be normal during pregnancy, but I would probably still have it checked out for my own peace of mind. When I went in for my first appointment my doctor told me (I had some light pink spotting at the time) that if I started cramping badly and/or if it was accompanied by bleeding to go to the hospital immediately to have everything checked out. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Hiya
I had abit of brownish blood at 4 weeks and the doctor said it was nothing to worry about because my cervix was tightly shut and it has not happened since take care of yourself and rest as much as you can

| I ended up going to the hospital because I was so worried and I am glad that I did. They ran some tests and did some ultrasounds and said my baby was fine and saw the heartbeat. They said sometimes they can't explain bleeding but usually everything is fine. Thank you so much to everyone for their support, it's so hard not to be worried anyways though...but I'll have to try. | | | | Status: Offline
