Freakin' out @ 7wks... help

[Emmykate82]

Hi All,

So i am so stoked to have gotten my on Monday afternoon, especially since DH and I were going to GP's for a referral for fertility testing!!!

Trying to stay calm, praying that this one will stick... even though i did have one day of some very light brown discharge last week Doctor seemed to think this was fine as my hCG levels matched my dates. Today i am 7wk 1day (silly ticker is American and so a day behind...am i being petty allowing that to bother me ?).

This morning when i went to the loo i had this tiny amount of creamy/light brown discharge. It is totally freakin me out. Especially since we lost the last one at 6-7wks. It isn't red, isn't really brown either (not like old blood), just slightly darker than normal creamy discharge. Sorry if tmi. Not alot of it, but every time i wipe there is a little bit.

I don't have cramps or anything, no change in symptoms... but don't know if i am reading too much into this or not? I think last time it started brown before i lost our angel, but darker..like old blood... but now i am paranoid.

Doctor doesn't want to see me for another 2 weeks and won't send me for U/S til i'm 11wks for NT scan and hospital don't want a bar of me until 16wks!

Has anyone had anything like this??? Can reassure me???

Please don't stress. there is quite likely nothing wrong. I have had the thick darker then normal discharge with this pg too. I am sure your bubs is tucked up nice and safely and just waiting for you to have a chance to see them at the 11week scan.

Congrats on your BFP

I had this with this pg too. I think I had it until 8 or 9 weeks. It did bother me quite a bit. Everything is going fine now. Try to relax and enjoy your pg

Hi Emmykate
Try not to worry Hun. It is very common to get a change in the colour, amount and texture of your discharge. For some women it is only a slight change but for others it can be quite noticeable.

Thanks for the advice guys, i feel quite reassured. Maybe i am worked up over nothing. It is so light i'm sure noone else would even notice. For peace of mind i might just get a quantitative hCG at work on Monday as i have a friend in the biochem lab at the hospital, just to check it is going up!

Thanks everyone,
xx
