I found out last week that IVF was successful and I am now 5 weeks pregnant. I've had occasional cramping/pinching/bloating, but this morning I had my first spotting. It was light pink, then light brown, and while I've read that can be normal, of course I'm scared. I have fibroids and endometriosis so me RE thought achieving pregnancy would be difficult, so I'm really on guard about this. I have an ultrasound tomorrow morning so thankfully I don't have to wait too long but this will be the longest day ever.
Can anyone else share their experience with spotting?

Re: New to Board/Concern about Spotting
Congrats and welcome. I experienced pink spotting and some blood at 6w and again at almost 7w. I called my RE immediately the first time and they had me come in the next morning. Nothing could be found and the spotting stopped a few hours after it began. If you are nervous I would call your RE just to be safe.
Good luck!

Congrats and welcome!!
I had pink spotting that turned into brown spotting at 6 weeks and 8 weeks both times I had a u/s that day and they couldn't find a reason for the spotting. I had bright red blood at 10 weeks and again they couldn't find a reason for the bleeding when they did an u/s. Recently I had bright red bleeding again at 32 weeks, and again the u/s showed nothing.
Anytime I have had or have bleeding, I always try to get in that same day. My OB always tells me that some people just bleed, but that never makes me feel any better.
After 4 years, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs our surprise miracle is here!
