Spotting making me nervous

coralreefzz · June 2015

I'm 7 weeks pregnant and spotting mainly brown and not too heavy but it's really freaking me out. Been going on for a few days now. I haven't felt sick or anything and my first sonogram is a week away. Nurse said I should be fine but I'm getting first time mom jitters anyone else have this ? I was going to get an earlier sonogram but would be a pain and not at my regular dr.

I had spotting in the early weeks of m first pregnancy so hopefully it's nothing to be worried about, but if the spotting picks up, it might be worth getting an early sonogram to put your mind at ease.

Normal. Spotting happens in 20% of normal, healthy pregnancies.

Happened to me from weeks 5 to 7 and the baby was fine. It's pretty common and as long as it's not heavy and you don't have bad cramping, I wouldn't worry too much.

I'm with you. I'm also a FTM and began experiencing slight bleeding (more than spotting) last week. I went for an u/s and everything was fine (showing up 7 wks). I went yesterday for my f/u after on/off bleeding all week and baby's HB increased and the gestational sac and yolk sack looked good.

My Dr. told me as long as I don't fill a pad, have super bright blood, or cramping, then I should be good.

All this to say, take a breath and try to relax a bit. Easier said then done, for sure.

I'm 7 weeks right now and woke up with some light pink spotting this morning. The doctor said not to worry, but they did move my 1st u/s up from July 13th to this Thursday the 2nd just to be safe. I wish you the best of luck as well, hopefully this is normal like they say!

@coralreefzz - I'm so sorry for your loss! It's so hard when they convince you that a little spotting isn't a problem, then to find out it was. Prayers for healing.

So sorry to hear this, Coral! Thinking of you right now during this time.

My thoughts and prayers are with you, so sorry for your loss. We lost our baby last year at 16 weeks so I know how heartbreaking it is. Take care of yourself.
