Reddish/brown

I'm about 5 weeks now. I only see
reddish/brown stuff when I wipe after
using the bathroom; and it comes and goes.
Somedays it's more and somedays there's
nothing. My doctor knows about it and i've
seen him 3 times already and he told me to
take it easy.  I
guess i'm just getting worried since I had
a mc last sept. Any advise would be
greatly appreciated.

Implantation bleeding is just that -
bleeding while the egg is implanting in
the uterus. This occurs a couple weeks
before you even miss your period, so what
she's experiencing isn't implantation
bleeding.
Just take your doctor's advice and take it
easy for a little while. Are you
experiencing any cramping with this
discharge? If not, then you probably have
nothing to worry about. Many women
experience spotting during early
pregnancy. Congrats!

Actually, during early pregnancy up
through about six weeks along the embryo
continues to implant deeper into the
uterine lining. Spotting in early
pregnancy is common and doesn't always
mean something bad. Just take it easy and
if anything changes contact your doctor.

There is no cramping at all; just the
reddish/brown discharge (but it's not as
thick as discharge?). I've been taking my
vitamins and eating right (as much as I
can) so hopefully everything will be
fine.
I was at my dr. last Sat. and he was able
to see the sac has doubled in size but he
wasn't able to see anything inside the
sac. My HCG level went up but wasn't as
high as he thought it would be.
Thanks for all your advise. I'm going
back to my dr. this Sat. hopefully I'll
have some good news for you guys. I hope
he sees something inside the sac this
time.

I went to see my dr. on Sat. and so far so
good. We saw the baby's heart beat.
The discharge/spotting has stopped, just
hope that it will continue to stay away.

implantation bleeding does not occur a
couple weeks before you miss your period,
and neither does it occur once you are
pregnant.
you typically ovulate about 14 days before
your period is due.
this is when the sperm can fertilise the
egg.
the fertilised egg then continues it's
journey down the fallopian tubes.
this typically takes about 10 days.
so for an average person with a typical
cycle implantation bleeding (which si not
common and definately not experienced by
everyone) happens around 4 days before
your missed period.

Hi everyone. Everything was going pretty
well until I went to the bathroom this
morning; when I wiped I saw light brown
discharge. I just went to the bathroom a
little while ago and I saw some more. I'm
going to see the dr. tomorrow. In the
mean time any advise?

Hey there, my name is Shannah and I am
10wks along and I have had brown spotting
all through this pregnancy. It first
started at 6wks so my doctor sent me for
blood work to check my HCG levels. At one
point they actually dropped so she was
concerned and sent me for an emergency
ultrasound and more blood work because she
thought that I was having a mc. At around
7 wks my hcg levels went back up and the
ultrasound showed my baby with a nice
strong heartbeat and it was the right
size. My doctor says that somethings are
just a mystery and that they haven't any
medical explanation for them.
So try not to worry I have made it to 10
wks and I still have brown spotting. It
seems much lighter then what it was in the
beginning. When it first started it was so
dark it looked like chocolate.(tmi) It
doesn't happen everyday it just comes and
goes.
So stay positive and don't think the
worst.
Good luck
