I am new to this thread.....havent announced my pregnancy as i wanted to wait and be sure. i am 7 weeks pregnant,had my first ultrasound on wednesday that showed us the heartbeat. since friday i am having brown mucus discharge when i wipe with the tissue. i am freaking out and really stressed. i dont have any pain ,but the brown mucus had been there for the last 3 days. i was feeling sick for the last week on and off and today i am not feeling sick at all. that is making me more stressed.
i am going to see my doc and having a scan tomorrow,but right now i am terribly stressed,i tried to stay calm all weekend but now it getting on to me....
plssss....has anyone else had anything like this? we had fertility treatment to conceive and have gone thru a lot of stressful times......just want to talk to someone
Old blood (brown blood) happens to many...it is more likely than not not cause for worry although your worry is understandable. Smart of you to make an appointment for tomorrow but try not to worry too much and to get a good night's sleep. Oh - and I've also been told that it's more common with ivf than with a natural pregnancy but nobody has ever explained why this is.
Hi, with all 3 of my pregnancies I had brown discharge from around 8-11 weeks, different with each pregnancy. I was very nervous and worried myself but sometimes it's just your body getting rid of the old blood.
I know you said you have your scan tomorrow so I agree with buliej and get a goods night rest!
Welcome to BB. Like the others have said, brown blood is supposed to mean old blood. I can totally relate to your fear, I had bleeding throughout my pregnancy and it was extremely frightening. I would go to bed and rest as much as possible, it might help you to relax and also make tomorrow come faster. Seeing a heartbeat is supposed to super increase the chances of a successful pregnancy so the fact that you have seen that is a really good sign in my opinion.
I had the same as Loula for my first, it got worse after each ultrasound, so we tried to keep them to a minimum and my gp and ob were careful when looking at my belly. It also happened whenever Af would have been due, I wasn't able to bend or lift from early on either.
Only had a little bit of bleeding with dd2, again mostly when af was due. I haven't had any this tine.
i did search subchorionic heamorhage in google and heaps of info as expected.my spotting has stopped thankgod....but i am getting a scan again in 2 weeks to see if the shadow still appears in the scan. feels good to hear this is very common without any consequences.
black_rose,Loula.....good luck i realised both of you are very close to your due date.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
