| What's going on? Hi all.
I am just 4wks and 3days pregant, just got my BFP on mon. Have made a docs appointment but couldn't fit me in until next week. My concern is today l have brown discharge, not in my underwear just when l wipe. ( sorry for wording!) I've heard of implantation bleeding but thought l'd of had that by now if l was going to get it.
Is this normal? Has anyone else had this? | | | | Status: Offline

| Hi there,
I've had it...it lasted for 3 days but has now stopped. I've just been checked out at the hospital as I was having some odd pains on my side and they were worried I could be ectopic. They've ruled that out pretty much now and have put it down to wind!!! because my tummy is so bloated.
Anyway if you're at all conerned call your GP as they were great with me and really took my concerns seriously. Even if you just call them to put your mind at rest... Just a point though, they didn't seem at all concerned about the brown discharge. I have to go for an early scan on Thursday to 100% rule out ectopic and to see if everything is progressing normally. | | | | Status: Offline
