Bleeding, but no cramping!!?

[JennaLynn]

Hello ladies!!
I am very newly preggo, just found out a few days ago!! I'm 4 weeks and 3 days ( but my periods are very irregular so I could be a little more). I had no idea I was pregnant because I thought I had my "period"..very very light, no clotting and no cramping at all...but it has come and gone for the past week or so!! There is still no cramping, maybe barely...and it's not heavy (just enough to barely need a pad) and there when I wipe...I am so scared this isn't normal!! It's very dark red, just about brown..but not heavy at all.

Anyone have any ideas??!!

Hi JennaLynn,

could be implantation bleeding which is quite common around the time your period should be due, that is usually described as spotting and light. Or it could be old blood, I've seen a few posts where ladies have had this and everything's been fine.

I'd keep an eye on it and visit your doctor. It will be too early to tell how the pregnancy is progressing but hoping the best for you

I have been going through the same thing. Go to the DR they can order an HCG test and monitor it. So far my numbers are doubling and thats a good thing. Wishing you the best.

I am currently pregnant although I think they believe I'm further along than I actually am, looking back on dates & all. Anyways, I've been spotting for well over 2 weeks. Sometimes red, brown & sometimes even a yellowish color. I had my first appt. & the night before was when I first started spotting, it was very minimal I mentioned it and he had me go across town to get blood work done (they have two offices, ones in a hospital) They tested me for numerous things and for my blood type, I wasn't a negative so they weren't so worried, they tested me for multiple other things too. Anyways I called them back two days later & they said everything looked ok, so they scheduled my appt for two weeks later well the spotting got worse so on Sunday I called the doctor worried because it was the first incident of bright red, and he told me to call early in the morning and have them fit me in for monday the next day. He said unless I was hemmoraging then I don't really need to go to the ER. So anyways, I went to the doctors monday and spoke to him he did an exam and told me my cervix was still closed- THANK GOD. I WAS SO NERVOUS IN THE WAITING ROOM. Now, last visit he could see where the amniotic fluid was and where the sac was to form & this time he basically saw the same thing idk if its because the appt was set at an earlier date, BUT IM NERVOUS. He said he didn't want to bother with a vaginal US to just test the hormone levels & then come back Wed. for hormone levels again. So I went this morning for my blood to be drawn and I find out tomorrow if the levels are going up & then I can schedule my next appointment. It's so nerve racking waiting!! But on the brightside the spotting had almost COMPLETELY stopped today... but as of a few minutes ago it is red again. when does it end? Crossing my fingers for good news tomorrow.
