Pink blood on tissue

I have an ultrasound appointment later today so I’m trying not to freak out completely. I just went to the bathroom and when I wiped there was pinkish blood on the paper and I had a brief pinching cramp. Idk what to do right now. I’m at work and no one knows I’m pregnant. I’m 9w 6d. Anyone experienced this and everything was okay?!!!


Re: Pink blood on tissue

  • As long as there's no serious cramping (I wouldn't personally consider one small cramp anything to worry about since the uterus is stretching) or clots and your not filling a pad, it's not necessarily anything to worry about.  The cervix is delicate and easily irritated during pregnancy and a little spotting can be no big deal.  Plus the placenta is growing and embedding and can cause a little bleeding as it digs in.

    I've had spotting three times this pregnancy (once pink/red and the others brown) and it's always been my cervix being irritated.

    I hope your ultrasound goes well and eases your mind!

  • @LGOLDMAN88 my OB told me that if it’s pink or brown, not to worry. If it’s bright red, soaking through a pad an hour, with cramps, then it is time to worry. I have had pink, brown and red spotting throughout this pregnancy and at my first ultrasound everything looked good. Fingers crossed for you! 
  • With my first I remember I had some bleeding early on that I was convinced was the end, but everything turned out to be fine. It's terrifying, but definitely try to remain calm; it may very well be nothing!
  • Great news!  I'm glad everything was fine! :heart:
