I had bright red bleedung my first pregnancy at 6 weeks and my son is now two and healthy. My doc said it was implantation bleeding.

I agree with all of these ladies. Brown is old and could be from implantation or a past period. I would not worry unless u were having bright red bleeding. Bloating will probably happen off and on until ur uterus grows and u actually start showing.

Brown usually means old blood which could be from implantation.  I also had cramping with my pregnancy early that reminded me of period cramping along with bloating.  I could have sworn the pregnancy test was wrong and AF was on her way.  For me it last pretty much my entire first trimester.  Good luck and congratulations!!!!

Implantation bleeding is very very light. Like only a few dropd amd is very rare. Pretty sure it occurs 6 to 12 days after concieving. So it'd be time for you, mosy of the time implantation bleeding is new blood though. Brown blood os old blood and most likely was trapped in your body and became dislodged. It's perfectly normal to spot during pregnancy.
