Does anyone have or had this? It started as orange-ish looking CM on 11DPO, then light pink spotting when I wipe on 12DPO, then today brown spotting at 13DPO, and after I had bm, I saw some red in the toilet and on the toilet paper. It’s not a lot, but it’s looking red.

I had similar experience when I was pregnant last year, spotting of all colors ranging from pink/orange/brown, to sometimes red, which started at 14DPO and lasted about a week. Obgyn told me it’s okay to spot as long as it’s not as heavy as my normal period. He called it implantation spotting, but I thought it was too late for that…

So anyway, same story this time. Does anyone else have this? Please help me stay sane.

I just called dr.'s office. They told me to stay off my feet and take it easy, that's the only thing I can do right now. And call them back if the bleeding gets very heavy.

take a deep breath *ahhh* you will be okay! I think every newcomer has asked this question It's not too late for IB as well as your cervix is super sensitive right now so anything can aggrevate it (i.e, straining alittle to have a BM and having some blood is normal the whole pregnancy). As long as you are not having lots of cramps and tons of red blood, it's all normal pregnancy stuff! Congrats, by the way!

We talked about this privately before but i did.... which i later found out was because of the bicornuate uterus

I had a lot of bleeding early on and even went to the ER at five weeks when I felt a huge gush of blood. Everything turned out okay and I had bleeding on and off for quite awhile. Lyz gave great advice! Will keep your little bean in my T&P though!

I also had a lot of spotting early on. I think i spotted for about 2 weeks after my BFP. I also got some random ones throughout my pregnancy. Sometimes it was after going #2 - just the pressure of the pushing it out.

Hope all is well!!

I had tons of spotting. I even thought I had started AF so I delayed taking another FRER. Turns out I was pregnant. I spotted on and off throughout the entire first trimester and was a nervous wreck. But, in the end I have a healthy baby boy to show for it. I'm sure everything's fine. As long as its not real heavy try not to worry about it. I know it's easier said than done though.

Thank you ladies for your insight. I'm trying to rest as much as possible and keep any physical activity to a minimum. The bleeding has turned to spotting today, so I'm feeling a bit better.

Count me in as someone else who had spotting. It freaked me out! I had implantation spotting before I found out I was pregnant, and then around 8 weeks I started having some brown spotting one day, which turned pink the next, which led to streaks of red mixed in with clear CM the day after that. I called my doctor who said it was probably implantation bleeding (at 8 weeks?!), from having a BM, from DTD, or from heavy lifting. It went away after those few days (it tapered off to brown). I was told if I wasn't having rhythmic cramping or heavy bleeding that I shouldn't be concerned.

Now I have pink CM every time we DTD, it's so frustrating.
