small spotting @ 17 weeks, 1 day

just got back from A&E! glad all is okay - baby moved, heatbeat seen and heard. the brown blood/diacharge apparently was due to old blood, however gynae couldn't find an answer to why it's happening. but anyway all well, and it's normal for brown discharge to occur. advised me to also come back should there be cramps and fresh blood on a full pad at every hour. so here's just an update for you worries mummies as well! however if you need to have a peace of mind, i would still advise you to see a gynae :)
