    worried it's happening again

    Theoretically I am 7 weeks along today but I woke up to brown spotting. I didn't have AF between the D&C and this pregnancy so logicially I know this could be breakthough bleeding of some sort. Still it is upsetting.
    What makes it worse this time is I had a scan last Friday and there was a heartbeat. At least last time I had a blighted ovum, so I could console myself that there was never an embryo from the start.....

    Oh hun you poor thing.
    I do want to offer some hope though my first pregnancy was a blighted ovum and I had a D&C.
    I fell pregnant again and freaked out a few weeks later when I had a bleed again. BUT it was just a bleed and I went on to have a healthy pregnancy and a healthy son. I have bleed early on in all my pregnancies now so fingers crossed this is the case with you too.

    Best of luck xxx

    Thanks girls - I am seeing my GP in the next few days and will get a referral for another scan then, so I made a pre-emptive appointment for an ultrasound at 10.30am on Saturday. Fingers crossed.

    Spotting is so worrying . It can also be normal too - the fact that it's brown (old blood) and that you saw a heartbeat last week are all pointing to a positive outcome.

    My sister had lots of spotting when pg with her DD and her bub was born happy and healthy.

    I'm praying that your bub holds on tight .

    Rory I am so hoping its just breakthrough bleeding hun, I had a missed mc in 07 with no signs or bleeding whatsoever, then got pg with DS 6 months later and had intermittent spotting on and off for the first 6 months! Talk about a roller coaster ride! But all was fine, so it can be ok, Sending you lots of sticky vibes. xx
