Spotting/Anxiety

lilylover27 · February 2016

First off I am sorry, I am sure this already a post but I can't seem to find it. Had some brown spotting starting yesterday evening, only when wiping after the bathroom. DH and I had sex on Sunday, first time since BFP, and I had very minimal pink spotting a couple hours later but only happened during one trip to the bathroom. Yesterday I was fine all day till evening when I had some brown when wiping and then nothing. Have since had some additional brown spotting but less than last night. No real cramps just feeling bloated. I am assuming it is just left over from having sex on Sunday? I took a test this morning and got a BFP, not as dark as the one I took two weeks ago but I know that can mean nothing. Basically just want to know what you ladies think or have experienced. I was going to call my doctor but a lot of the things I am reading says to not worry unless it is red spotting. Once again sorry if this is a duplicate post but in my self brought on anxiety search I couldn't find the other board. Also sorry if any of the above is TMI!

I had brown spotting with my first pregnancy for several weeks. It was really scary but ended up being nothing. At the end of it I passed a decent sized brown clot and then that was the end of it. Don't be shy to at least call the doctor and let them know. Even if the answer is that it's common and not to worry I think you will feel better.

I hope it stops on its own first though!

I'm having spotting too, I'd suggest telling your doctor. Mine has scheduled me for an early ultrasound and to get my hcg levels monitored to check everything is ok. Fingers crossed it's all ok for you:)

I would definitely check with your doctor. They should be able to see something on ultrasound by now, so maybe they would be willing to do that to calm your nerves.

Thanks ladies for your answers! Seems like the spotting is mostly gone now. I think I will monitor it the rest of the day and if it comes back I will give my OB/GYN a call and see if I should do anything. I have my first appointment already set up but it is not until 3/3 so still a while away.

Actually ladies I took your advice and called just the doctor just to be sure, they are moving me up to get in this Thursday for an ultrasound to make sure everything is looking ok. I will update you all after then!
