Spotting at wk 6

Just started spotting this morning.  No red or pink, just gross brown stuff, but not much at all.  Who all spotted, and when and how long did it last?

TIA

I spotted from week 6 until week 9. It was once a day for the first few days, and then random afterwards. My spotting though was bright red! (Yes I freaked out). I ended up having an SCH, that went away without problems.

((Hugs)) Hopefully this is nothing for you hun, as spotting is very normal on both this board and in pregnancy!

I know it's difficult not to worry, but spotting is completely normal at this early stage in pg. 

I had light spotting (kind of brownish/pink) without cramping one or two times around 7 or 8 weeks.  I actually noticed it when I was in the bathroom at RE's office for an u/s.  So I was glad that it happened there.  I did end up have a small SCH that he saw on u/s and he thought that probably caused the spotting. 

But you can also have spotting without having a SCH and it's completely normal.

It's totally normal. I spotted around 5-6 weeks; RE's nurse said that as long as you're not filling a pad in an hour, it's OK. This is scary, but please try not to worry!

Thanks for reassuring me everything is normal.  I haven't had any spotting since yesterday afternoon, so I'm thinking things might be okay.  Still watching out every time I use the restroom though.
