5 weeks bleeding

[kaylinq]

I started spotting and it scared me. So I went to the er and they did a an ultrasound/sonagram  (whatever they're called!) My blood was brownish pink and brownish red. I'm having slight cramps but nothing terribly painful (knock on wood!) They said everything looks normal it's just the implantation taking place and it's common for this to happen.

Has this happened to anybody else? My slight cramps are manageable. Any remedies for that pain?         Thank you

You can drink 80ozs of water a day or more.  That will help.  Brown blood is old blood and quite normal. Hang in there!  Congratulations

I had the spotting part for about a day I think it was pinkish, pain wise I use a hot water bottle and get into bed, paracetamol doesn't seem to do a lot :( I just don't have the bottle too hot and make sure I have clothing on plus a cover on the bottle, only thing that helps me. Congratulations on your pregnancy :)
