5 weeks and 6 days ( pregnancy mentioned)
Hi everyone, just an update from me. My positivity is slowly slipping away despite the reassurance I am getting from everyone. I have been having brown spotting off and on for 1 week now. Cramping off and on since BFP. no other noticeable symptoms I am concerned about the spotting as the last 2 times it didn't end well for me.
I am speaking to my midwife today so that she can refer me to the EPU to get a scan so that I can know either way whats happening. Praying so hard that this is third time lucky for me and not history repeating itself.

I know you know in your head that it can be normal, but that doesn't make it any less terrifying. I went for nearly a week with pink and brown spotting and even some a little darker. I still.don't know that everything is ok, but my numbers look ok. I'm praying that this is just normal spotting for you!

I went through the same thing with my pregnancies. They always started out with brown spotting. It continued throughout my last pregnancy..everything turned out fine with my babies! But, I know how scared you are. I was terrified when it started happening with my last pregnancy because it was right after I had my miscarriage. It is hard to not be scared but know that it can be normal too! Thinking of you - keep us posted! I am sure that little bean is just fine :)

I gushed blood dark red blood and clots so badly at 6 weeks I ended up in the emergency room thinking I was having a miscarriage only to find out it was "normal" so keep faith! I know it's super hard but I'm praying for you that this time is different! Also my symptoms didn't start tell about 7 weeks

Thanks again everyone for there words of comfort means a lot to me.
Mill I spoke with the midwife and she really put my mind at ease. She has made an appointment with the epu but advised that I may be disappointed as it too early I might not see anything. She said all my symptoms are normal and if I can try to hold out for a scan till after 8 weeks. But go if I feel I really want it.
She made an appointment for me to go to see her as well the 2nd week in June. So I'm Alot more relaxed and happy about everything now. How ru feeling?
