Success with pink/red spotting?

in Pregnant after IF

Hi ladies, I've been getting positives on HPTs since Tuesday (beta is today) but last night I starting spotting pink/red when I wipe (the red was after BMs, sorry if TMI). I'm freaked out. Unfortunately I have been down this road before with a previous c/p, missed m/c and most recently an ectopic. I know I just have to wait and see how the betas go, but any reassurance or similar stories would help. I am on Lovenox this time and thought that might have something to do with it, but not sure.

TIA!

Dx: High FSH, stage IV endo, homozygous C677T MTHFR and PAI-1
Early loss 10/08
Lap 1/09
IVF #1 "natural IVF" - 1 egg retrieved, missed m/c
Tried several mini-stim cycles with no response
Switched clinics - dx'd as carrier for Fragile X
IVF #2 MDL protocol Jan/Feb converted to IUI, BFN
IVF #2 take 2: Antagonist, one embie, BFN
IVF #3: Antagonist, no fertilization
One last ditch effort at OE IVF (antagonist with Clomid) cancelled
DE cycle #1 Jan/Feb 2011, BFP, ectopic
DE cycle #2 June/July 2011 - BFP
10/28/11 Baby girl lost at 17 weeks due to pre-term labor. We love and miss you.
DE cycle #3 June/July 2012 - BFP, twins, both heartbeats stopped, D&C
2 frosties but don't know what's next
FET Dec 2012: BFP! Praying this one sticks for the long haul!

    Oh hon....I am sooo hoping this is your sticky baby! I had spotting, even an episode of all out bleeding, and all was fine. It can be any number of things not threatening the pregnancy, but it is terrifying. Sending you hugs and all the luck in the world! When are your betas? (NM....saw the date for beta in your siggy. Good luck! Let us know how they go!)

    Best of luck to you, dear.  I hope everything works out!

    I had a lot of red spotting/bleeding around 6 weeks.  Made me think for sure that I lost the babies.  Every one has stuck around though.

    I'm sorry you're spotting but hopefully it's nothing!!

    I spotted pink at 4weeks 5 days - my first beta day. I was terrified, but I got a great beta that doubled by 2 days later and we just saw a littl heartbeat on Tuesday. Spotting is pretty common. Especially if you're on vaginal progesterone!

    Hi there! Congrats on your BFP! I had pink and red spotting/light bleeding at 5 weeks and thought for sure it was over but it turned out to be implantation bleeding. I hope this is the case for you too, hon!!

    I'm pretty sure it's common anyway. Something about blood flow increasing to the cervix. And as Etoyama said, implantation bleeding!! I Really hope it works out hon. I'll be thinking about you.

    I had some pink/reddish spotting when I was 5 weeks. I hope yours will turn out to be nothing!!

    After 2 1/2 years TTC, 3 IUI's, endo, and a lap, a surprise BFP brought us Alexandra Marie!

    I must have missed your BFP post!  Congratulations!  I hope this is your sticky baby.  There is so much increased blood flow that even a little irritation could be causing spotting.  Hoping everything is okay and this is IT for you!  Good luck, hon!
