Brown Spotting

[peaseblossom55]

I've had some brown spotting when I went to the bathroom twice today. I called my RE they said it's normal but offered for me to come in tomorrow for a u/s.  If it continues I will go in for a u/s tomorrow to check all is well. I still have all of my pregnancy symptoms but I feel some cramps. I'm really trying not to freak out and I keep telling myself spotting is normal.  Ugh I really don't want this pregnancy to end.  I now want to go home and sleep and not be at work.

I'm sorry that's happening and it's making you nervous. Have you had your progesterone checked at all? I had brown spotting during my pregnancy with my DD and found out it was due to low progesterone. Also, it could just be nothing. Sometimes your cervix gets irritated and bleeds a little. I hope you get some reassuring news tomorrow!

My progesterone looked fine. I hope it stops and I get some good new tomorrow. Thanks.

I'm sure everything is fine and normal but I would feel the same in your shoes. Logic doesn't seem to meet up with our concerns during pregnancy and especially after experiencing a loss. Big hugs lady!

I'm so sorry you're dealing with spotting. FX it stops. ((Hugs))

So I'm actually right there with you, I have had brown spotting on and off since Sunday. I had my first appointment yesterday and my doctor did not seem too concerned, but it is hard not to let your brain wander.
Anecdotally, this happened to me in my last pregnancy and everything was fine. That's what I keep reminding myself of this time.

I'm sorry peaseblossom55, I hope it stops soon. I agree with everyone else it could easily be nothing but I understand,((hugs)).

Hugs peaseblossom55, sorry you're going through this. I hope it stops and you get reassurance tomorrow. Hopefully it's nothing to worry about, but it's natural to worry. ..

FX for a good appointment tomorrow... Thinking of you

peaseblossom55 sorry this is happening, I know the worrying feeling all too well. I will be thinking about you and send all the good vibes your way for a good appointment.

[peaseblossom55]

As of 3 I've had no more spotting some cramps on and off though. I think I'm going to wait until my appointment on Monday to go in. Especially considering it has stopped and how little spotting there was overall.

Fingers crossed that it all settles down.

Fx it stays away and your appt goes really well Monday!! Thinking of you

Thanks so much for checking in! All is fine, no spotting no cramps either, just normal pregnancy symptoms.

I had brown spotting throughout my last pregnancy with DD. At first the reason was unkown, but that it was coming from the cervix not uterus. It was always after sex, after a long walk or running, lifting something heavy, etc. Towards the end, I just expected it.

When I went into labor, the bleeding got pretty heavy and during some exams in labor, it was found that it was do to a polyp on my cervix.

I've already got the same after-sex bleeding this pregnancy! Dark brown, fairly light, and lasts for about 30sh min after sex. I also had some when straining to poo :-). TMI.

That being said, I think it's normal.

I had spotting with two of my babies, it was just a little bleeding in my uterus the tech said, baby was totally fine both times. And it was red, not brown. It definitely happens and can be totally normal, but I definitely get why you're nervous. Fx for you!
