BFP 8dp5dt...but spotting...please help!

Believer09 · August 2009

Hi everyone! I'm asking for any success stories you may have similar to what I'm going through.

About 11:30pm 5dp5dt I had just a little bit of tinged brown/pink coloring on my toilet paper after using the bathroom. This was just a little---had I not looked so closely at the toilet paper I would have missed it.

On 6dp5dt, the spotting started in the afternoon--but it was brown--and just a little (like little bitty streaks on the toilet paper). I was hoping it was implantation spotting. However, around 4pm on 6dp5dt, I went to the bathroom and my panties (sorry if TMI) were stained a little and I wiped and the spotting had increased. At that time it was more pink (maybe light red) than brown. However, that was the worst occasion--it went back to brown spotting and very little.

On 7dp5dt (yesterday), the spotting went to a minimum. Back to very little---I thought it was going to be the last day of it.

At 4:30 am this morning (8dp5dt), I got a bfp! I wasn't spotting at all during that time this morning--nothing when I wiped. However, when I woke this morning about 10am, there was a quarter sized spot in my underwear and it was pink/light red. Now, it's back to just a little bitty streaks/spotting only when I wipe. I'm scared that this isn't just implantation spotting. I'm scared my bfp is going to turn to a bfn. I'm scared. Can someone here offer me some hope or similar success stories. My beta is 8/18 and I don't think they'll have me come in early for one (maybe one day early--but that's it).

TIA! I really truly hope and pray that I can come over here for good. I'll miss my girls on TTTC, but coming over here will be a dream come true. Oh, with my previous miscarriage--there was no spotting--I've never experienced this for this long (with my first bfp, I *think* I did have implantation spotting but it was literally probably a 5 minute deal). I don't have a luteal phase length problem either.

With my first BFP I started spotting the day after my first positive HPT. I was sure I was miscarrying but my first beta was great, second more than doubled and everything progressed normally for the most part (experienced second trimester loss but not at all related to spotting, I went into PTL).

I spotted/bled my entire first tri with DS1. It didnt go away until about 14 weeks. I had so many u/s and they were never able to tell my why or where it was coming from. But he is here and healthy. As long as it is just spotting it can be very normal. Good luck to you!!!

I didn't spot that early but I had about 3-4 days of on and off spotting... I have had u/s and everything is fine. There are so many things that cause spotting and it isn't necessarily bad! I know how hard it is to stay positive about it though! For me it was brown and pink too...never a dark brown or red though. I hope it turns out to be nothing for you too!!! Good luck!!!
