5weeks and spotting

[jessss22]

Hi I have just found out on the weekend that I am 5 weeks and 5 days pregnant. Today I had a light brown spotting. (very minimal) I have had light cramps the last few days. Is this normal, or could I be having a miscarriage?

Thanks everyone. I feel a lot better about it now. Can't wait to have the first scan it still doesn't feel real enough yet. So excited.

I agree with other girls. Had it for over 3 weeks went in for a US perfectly healthy baby. Stay away from intercourse until it goes away for a week. My doc says completely normal. Unless it gets heavier. Try to relax. :)

Most likely normal. I had spotting like that from 6-10 weeks. If you start having heavy bright red bleeding with cramps then that is cause for concern.

Brown blood is old blood so it's probably just left over. The cramps are also normal. Growing pains. :) congrats!
