Should I be worried about brown blood during pg
Hi
I should be 5 wks pg tomorrow, and notice inside i have brown blood. Should I be worried about this or is it just red blood I need to worry about?
I know I am probably too early for a scan and I have not yet seen the midwife (as I am waiting for her call to meet up in 2 weeks time) - should I call her?
If you have spotted during pg, what colour is it and what was the reason for it when you reported it to the specialist or got it checked out?
Please help, Im desperate. I've already had a mc before

I have had brown blood twice now and when i got to the epu they told me brown blood was nothing to worry about if it was in small amounts its when you have red blood that they think something is wrong.
I started with it when i was just 6 weeks i rang the midwife and they said it could be implantation in the womb causeing the blood but i wasnt happy with this and went to my doc who refered me to the epu i had a scan and they told me i had a haematoma (basically a small bruise) and it can be caused by anything.
I think you have to wait untill you are 6 weeks untill you can be seen at the epu but i would ring your midwife just to be on the safe side.
I hope everything is ok let me know what the midwife says x x x
My brown blood hasn't came on my pants yet, it has only been on my finger - which probably means it is still very light.
Is it best to rest until I find out?
however i went for scan a week later and all was well and im now 22 weeks! The only reason i got for bleeding was that it could be cervical erosion due to being on the pill in past which isnt harmful but may explain the brown blood, but they wern't really sure.
I wish you lots of luck for the scan but if it isnt getting any heavier or turning red i would say its probably fine but i know you will worry until thursday anyway as anyone would. Take care and rest if you can and let us know what happens xxx
Is it worth asking them to check my hcg levels when I am there as well as a scan, or is a scan sufficient on its own?
Good luck and i hope all is well xxx
