    Thanks Heather for your reply

    I did have a scan last Thursday but nothing could be seen except a sac, which they said was normal for this far along. There was a 5 day diff between my dates and their date but they said this is pretty normal too since it was just a tummy scan and apparently things change every single day at this early stage. I have an appt with the GP on Tues and am supposed to be getting a referral to the OB then.

    I am trying not to stress too much but it's hard because I've been trying to find some more info about the watery discharge and it's all so conflicting. If it continues overnight, I'll give the Dr a call in the morning and see what she says.

    I bled often through my pregnancy and it was bloody/muddy as you say. It's most likely normal discharge but if it would makeyou feel more peaceful, go and get it checked out. It's important for you to feel relaxed and informed asmuch as humanly possible.

    Hey starangelk hope you are doing okay.

    I had spotting with my ds at 16 weeks which totally freaked me out at the time but everything was completely fine.

    As heather said, getting your hcg levels checked is a good way to check how things are going. If you have your bloodtest they can usually give you the results the next day.

    Hi, thats what I'm getting and each test I am expecting bad news??? But so far everyhting is going along well, I would say try not too worry but I know it' not possible, will talk more in the due date group I'm sure .... like the others say get BT done, it helps ease your mind for a day or two until you get another one done.that all will be okay.

    Thanks guys

    I really appreciate your responses. I have a Dr's appointment in the morning. Today things have been a bit worse, bright red watery blood a couple of times and also bright red blood in mucous. But it's pretty much only when I wipe and not alot. Just keeping my fingers and toes crossed. Will let you know. xx

    As hard as it might be, try not to stress out.

    As the other ladies here have said, to put your mind at ease a BT is your best way. All three of my pregnancies have had bleeding. During my first pregnancy I had early bleeding at about 8 weeks, and the second pregnancy at about 6 weeks. Everything turned out fine and lost them to different circumstances.

    I hope everything's okay and will be thinking of you!

    Starangelk, I had this exact thing with both pregs (and it wasn't the reason I lost Jayvan so don't panic!)
    Def keep those fingers and toes crossed but while it's so light with no cramps I would say that everything is ok. I'll be keeping my toes and fingers crossed too! xx
