5 weeks and spotting

jrmahler

I woke up this morning and went to the bathroom but when I wiped there was brown blood but with bright red blood mixed in. I don't know what to do. I had a MC in august at 7 weeks so I'm freaking out

Spotting in early pregnancy is extremely common.. but if it persists and is causing you concern then call your OB.

@jrmahler My heart goes out to you! I miscarried in August as well so I can understand how worried you feel. I did have spotting at the beginning of this pregnancy too though! As other ladies have said, I would try not to worry even though it's easier said than done. When I miscarried there was tons of blood though and typically if it's not enough to fill up multiple pads a day then you should be fine. Also have you engaged in any intercourse lately? That has also made me spot this time around. Try to relax and call the doctor they'll probably have you in for a blood test and then have you follow up with another one a couple of days later to see if your levels are steady rising, at least that's what happened with me. Good luck, sweet mama!
