    4w5ish? Days today and have a little bit of pink spotting. Last night had a small streak of brown after going to the bathroom. Nothing when I first got up, but now, clear CM mixed with a bit of pink. 

    This can most likely be normal, right? Implantation bleeding or even cervical irritation from some intimate time with hubby yesterday? I have been pretty crampy for the last week or so, but each day seems to be a little less. I think now I’m feeling crampy because I am so anxious. 

    I’m trying so hard not to panic. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

    @becks105 spotting is normal. Usually spotting and cramping together is not the best scenario but at this point, just try as best you can to relax. I’d say not likely implantation bleeding unless it was brown.

    Would your OB get you in for betas?

    I’m definitely going to call if it continues or progresses. Last night I had a tiny bit of brown. Cramping hasn’t been back. I’ve got some pain in my left side that kind of bounces around, so I don’t think it’s related. I’m trying to take it easy today. Yesterday was out running errands and putting up Christmas decorations at home, so I’m trying to rest some more today. It was so minor, I’m not sure I would have even noticed if I wasn’t so anxious about everything and checking constantly. I’ve been dealing with some health-anxiety for some time… this definitely isn’t helping lol

    I had lots of spotting and some bleeding with my second pregnancy and none with my first. It freaked me out! But everything was fine and progressed normally. Being intimate definitely makes you spot a bit too. Resting never hurts! Hope you're doing better.

    Thanks, gals! Doing better. Haven’t had any more since those two small instances, so I put off calling or messaging my OB. If anything concerning happens, I will :) I appreciate the support in my moment of crisis!!

    I didn’t want to post here. But tonight I started bleeding, bright red blood, quite a lot. At the hospital now waiting to be checked. I’ve had a previous loss in June 2017, my mind just keeps going back to that place :(

    I’m spotting this morning. It’s brown, so I know, I know. Fairly normal but *TW* with our first being a miscarriage, I’m nervous. 

    I know I’m in the same situation as a lot of moms and it sounds the same, but really praying for the best. My appointment isn’t until Tuesday, so I’m going to call today to see if they can get me in, just to ease my mind.

    @dimeadozen I'm sorry you're going through that. Even if it's "normal" it's still really scary. I hope they can see you sooner and give you a little reassurance. Thinking of you.

    @amberrmariee20 I had one of those at 10.5 weeks with my daughter and she is a perfectly healthy and normal 2.5 year old! It was terrifying when it happened though. It was like several gushes. I was so distraught. I’m really happy your numbers are doubling and you have a heartbeat! Take it easy for a few days, mama
