Bleeding During Pregnancy - Women's Stories Of Bleeding In Pregnancy #3

Thanks Sami. I haven't really had anymore since then. I hope it doesn't come back! It's pretty scary.
I've booked an appointment to see my GP on tuesday coz she doesn't work until then. But if it gets worse before then I'll see someone else!!

SaraJane, I know it's hard not to worry when you have some spotting, but brown spotting is usually old blood and nothing to worry about. Definitely talk to your dr about it, but I just wanted to put your mind at ease, especially over the weekend .

Thanks Trish. It's still there this morning. Looks like a light brown colour and not enough to go on my undies, TMI sorry!!
I'm so worried, I hope nothing is wrong. I am trying to be positive and think that it happened right on 8 wks, might just be breakthrough bleeding coz it would be when AF would be due.
I hope it goes away soon
I don't have any cramps or anything. And I still have sore bbs and I hadn't had any morning sickness but it seems to have started over the last couple of days. I'm just praying that these are all good signs.

It sounds like you are right about the breakthrough bleeding SJ, it makes sense with the timing and the fact that you aren't cramping, etc is all good. Can you get into another GP today just for peace of mind? I'm praying for you

Oh Sara having sore BBs and nausea started recently is a good good thing! As long as the bleeding isn't red it *should* be ok.... I am so hard for you that all is OK. Try and stay strong as hard as that would be.... must be very scary for you. You've waited so long for this pregnancy you deserve a healthy strong bub.

Thanks girls. DH had to go to work today so I have no car to go anywhere. But if it gets worse I will ring him and he will come home and we'll get it checked out. I am just that it stops. I'm trying not to worry but its so hard. DH is being positive which helps. Wish he didn't have to go to work but he really had to, don't want to get him in trouble for not going.
Thanks for being there, it's better to have ppl to talk to about it.
Anyway, DH got me some dvd's before he left so I am going to go lie down and watch one now!

hey SaraJane,

I hope everything is going ok for you. I had both brown spotting and bright red bleeding in my first trimester (from 5.5 through to nearly 9 weeks). At times I was convinced I was m/c'ing, and was stressed out of my scone. I did end up being advised to reduce my activity right down (wasn't allowed to go to work for ~ 3 weeks), but got through it fine (apart from going more than a little stir-crazy at times!). So hang in there, look after yourself and take it easy! It doesn't necessarily mean things will go wrong, and maybe it's just nature's way of saying "hey, be lazy for a while". Also, I totally agree that the sore bbs and lack of pain is a good sign. I'm thinking of you and sofa-land and sending a big

Pls let us know how you're going!
