First pregnancy and worried...

[Cocoa44]

I just joined this site, though I've been reading the threads.

I have been having cramps since I got my first positive test on Sunday (10DPO). My cramps are light, but uncomfortable and I've had them every single day.

For the past 2 days, I've also had light brown spotting, only when I wipe and even then not all of the time.

I had blood drawn yesterday and I get the results back today, then I go back in tomorrow to see if my levels are rising normally. At the doctor's office I told them I was cramping and spotting but they told me not to worry unless the cramping got heavy or I started seeing red blood.

Anyone else have light cramping and spotting but end up being just fine? I'm trying to just relax and realize there's nothing I can do either way right now but stay calm.

Light cramps and spotting brown or light pink is normal hun, dont worry everything will be okay. xo

This is my first time discovering what pregnancy is all about, too. I'm realizing that a MAJOR part of it is keeping the worries from taking over. It seems like once one worry is totally appeased there is another to take its place. You seem to have the right attitude about staying calm, but I understand how hard it can be.

I had cramps before my bfp and was sure af was coming. Then, when I found out I was pregnant, the mild cramps persisted. I called it "the baby re-arranging furniture to get comfie in the new home". Later, at 6weeks 5 days, I started seeing brown when I wiped and even had some red blood once. I am now coming up on 13 weeks and both my babies are fine and strong! Feel peace. All my love to you and wishes for a healthy pregnancy. XOXO
