FTM- spotting! Help!

emmziee13

So I'm about 4 1/2 weeks I believe and my levels have been rising slowly. Not quite doubling but I go in tomorrow toget a blood draw (was out of town for 4 days) and nervous. I've had a lot of spotting for a week and a half but it's basically only been when I wipe. It's mostly been light to dark brown a few times it was red, but now it's brownish with sone stringyness but STILL only when I wipe- not even on my pad. What is this? My doctors said I'm to early to know anything but I'm so confused!

I've been going through the same thing for 3 weeks now. (I am 8 weeks along.) The doctor says it is because of my low progesterone levels, which I am now on medication for. The spotting has slowed down but not stopped completely. The doctor also told me so long as there is no cramping and no heavy bleeding, then that's ok. My best advice is to take care of yourself and take it easy. I know the waiting game for doctors appointments and follow-ups is tough. Deep breaths!
