Is this baby ever going to let me relax?

So, I went for a scan today at 10+6 (the point at which I miscarried last time). The scan was great - saw little one moving around - very active and strong heartbeat. Was absolutely ecstatic and thought now I can relax until the 12 week scan. Came home and took a nap....got up and went to the toilet...and there was brown on the toilet paper. I mean - what the f***??!!

My sensible head says nothing could have possibly gone wrong in the 2 hours since the scan. My emotional head just wants to scream and say 'why can't I just have a nice relaxing pregnancy and enjoy it?'

Urgh, just wanted to rant and get that off my chest! I don't think I will do anything unless it gets worse, as it is so soon since I saw that everything was ok. I do feel like crying right now though!

Did you have a trans-vaginal scan? Cause that could cause spotting since the area is now more suffused with blood. But then on the other hand the brown suggests old blood so that would mean from before your scan.

No, it was just an abdominal scan, so shouldn't have caused any irritation

I would call your OB Ali and mention it to them just in case but brown discharge can happen all throught pregnancy and is usually nothing to worry about.

Hi
glad your scan went well today, give your doc or midwife a call but i am sure everything is fine. Bubs prob just wants to keep you on your toes.
Look after yourself. X
