I'm Currently Feeling:  |  Brown spotting :(
By now ur prob thinking, god, all this girl does is moan!
But this time I'm quite concerned 
Went to the bathroom this mornin, and when i wiped there was some brown blood, and i'm quite itchy down there. Now the itchin Im assumin cud b thrush, but the brown blood is worrying Ive phoned NHS direct, who hav said that it cud jus b old blood, or still a bit of implantation bleeding (I had implantation bleedin 8th&9th Aug) but to take it easy, and see how i go over the next 12 hours. Sorry if TMI but we had  lastnite, cud this hav anythin to do with it?
Still cant help but worry  |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Try not to worry, as everyone says brown discharge isn't that unusual. I had brown discharge at 5 weeks which was on and off for 6 days and i'm 20 weeks now. As long as there is no cramping or associated symptoms just relax as much as you can. And yes, sex may well have brought it on. Jsut try not to worry-easier said than done i know- i was at the toilet every half hour examining the tissue for a little speck of whatever | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | Have been there and done that!!! Remember squishing my boobs repeatedly too just to make sure they still hurt-like thats a reliable indicator of anything and god knows what i looked like!!! Think this has been the most stressful 20 weeks of my life to be honest-every day there seems to be another thing to worry about but thats just because i want my baby to arrive safe and sound-i'm already a neurotic mum!!! | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Hi there, I have had this for the last week on and off, I am currently 7 weeks pregnant and had really bad cramping last weekend when it started...
I had a scan and saw a heartbeat so was appeased at the mo, the old blood is still there a little bit and I freak out every time i go to the bathroom.... I have my first prenatal on tuesday....
don't worry my doc said unless the bleeding was really heavy try not to worry.... (easier said than done eh?)
Best of luck, but I think it is quite common.....
take it easy and rest up/.......
