Spotting for the first trimester

5-6 weeks here but I’ve been having light spotting (brown) every other day. V v light cramps but not often also. Not sure if i should bring forward my gynae appt scheduled at 7 weeks. Is it common?

i did had a second spotting apart from the implantation spotting that came v timely around 14-15 days post ovulation! I did a safety check with gynae and was prescribed hormonal balancing meds for 1-2 weeks to stabilise things :)

yes it’s very common and brown is normal. as long as it’s not bright red and filling a whole pad. i had it during mine too. light cramps is due to uterus expanding.

Probably implantation cramps. Completely normal. But if you’re concerned, please see a doctor. Take care mummy.

Same here.. Had light brown water discharge and random light cramps. Doctor just ask me to monitor.

brown n light red spotting is normal :)
