Brown Spotting?

[Mz_Nettlez]

I'm about 5 weeks. I'm concerned because when I go to the bathroom and wipe there is brown blood on the tissue.  Is this normal? I'm not having  a miscarriage am I?

It's better that you made an appointment.  Spotting can be for different reasons and should be evaluated.  I've had two miscarriages myself. One was typical- cramping, spotting then heavier bleeding.  The second one I had no cramping or spotting- it's called a missed miscarriage. And you can have symptoms anywhere in between.  Odds are that a little light brown spottingb
is okay,  but better to be safe. Good luck and keep us posted!

Okay thanks ladies. Making appointment now...  I have no cramping though.

It could be implantation bleeding. I had it at 2 weeks.  You should call the doctor anyway. But what I said is usually true. I've had 3 miscarriages been through the whole gammit! Dr. Always told me a little spotting is no big worry. But cramping and spotting is.

I should note,  my period was supposed to come on the 1st.  I've tested positive for pregnancy as of the 6th with clear blue... That should put me at 4 to 5 weeks...  Could this be implantation bleeding?

You're right better safe than sorry...

Well it's sorta that kind of brown when you go off your period and it's ending.... It was light brown red a day ago and only when wiping, but now the spotting is that end if your period brown, it's not heavy but it hasn't stopped...  Going for 3 days now...  I don't even have to wear a liner cause it's not flowing to my panties... I only see it when I wipe.

That's not true numerous women on her had no cramping...with brown blood and they had a miscarriage. ..no one can tell you if you are a or not...you need to go to a doctor to make sure you are okay

It's possible. But usually you will see bright red blood right away even if just a little.  It could be a urinary tract infection or something too. If you don't feel any cramping,  the baby is probably okay.
