Thanks for your thoughts and messages. The bleeding has started as brown and I know that is better than 'fresh blood', but I have had some fresh blood as well. Not enough to warrant a pad, but I know it is there. I just keep thinking that because I would be less along in weeks to when I m/s last year I might not experience as much bleeding! Not sure, but thanks Tara, it's nice to know that someone else has experienced the same thing. Just hope mine ends up as positive as your outcome. Will keep you posted.
