Hello, this is my second pregnancy after 9 years. After a long process of IVF procedures got pregnant with one of my frozen embryos. I am 8 weeks and couple days pregnant and last night I started sppoting light brown, very watery. Today in the morning i saw light pink discharge and got frick out. This never happen to me before and this is kind of scary. I called the nurse and they told me it could be because of the progesterone vaginal suppository. Now I dont see anything in my patties but I see light red when I wipe. Have any of you experienced this before and had a successful pregnancy?

Spotting is common in early pregnancy. Some women notice it around the time the placenta is implanting (which is about where you are now), or it could easily be due to the suppository - your cervix is extra sensitive when you are pregnant, so if the suppository was to brush the cervix it could easily bleed. Many women have spotting after a transvaginal ultrasound, cervical check, or sex throughout pregnancy for that reason.
If the nurse said not to worry, try not to worry- though if you start to see actual red flow, definitely call back and insist on going in. try to avoid the ER unless you are REALLY bleeding - they're not great with this kind of thing, and basically just diagnose every bleeding incident as "threatened miscarriage" without any resolution until you can see your OBGYN or RE.
