Yup the ladies are right brown means old blood  implantation bleeding  uterus stretching placenta forming that what doc told me as I'm experiencing it now has been going on since 7 weeks and I'm now almost 11 weeks baby if fine growing as should with strong heartbeat don't worry unless it turns bright red with clots   Yup you should be able to hear and see the baby heart beat a 8 weeks every pregnancy is different this my third and never bleed with the other two  so good luck try not to stress so much

she is right^^^ every pregnancy is different we cant say when it will go away i had it for three days straight but spotting it was not a consistent bleeding like when you get your period. After that every once in a while but again spotting here and there sometimes after sex. Every time though I call my doctor and tell her even if I'm over reacting you can never be too sure.

Contact your doctor but I wouldn't stress about it too much. the color indicates old blood and like ^^^ said if its bright red and consistent than get yourself to a hospital. the cramping is also normal especially for first time moms, that is just our bodies moving and prepping for baby its common. I had alot of cramping the first 4 months. But just so that you can feel better call your doctor or go to there office and have them tell you your fine.

I've had spotting with no cramps with both of my pregnancies. One time turned out to be nothing and one time I lost the baby. Bleeding in the first trimester is fairly common, but I would still contact your Dr. you're so early there may not be anything they can do but check your HCG levels to check on the baby. You're probably fine but it's always better to be safe.

Brown blood indicates old blood which is not a problem. Spotting is common during early pregnancy and so are cramps. You're worrying a lot over nothing.
Worry if you start experiencing bleeding like a period (brigt red) and cramping
