brown spotting almost 6 weeks

Has anyone else had very pale clear brown spotting in week 5-6 along with cramps and gone on to have a healthy pregnancy? Fyi I have been cramping since a week after ovulation so the cramping isn't new. Had light spotting last night and again tonight and I am really scared. TMI photograph attached.

Had a little more spotting today in the morning. Darker brown and only when I wipe but certainly more than the day before. Now I'm really worried! Tmi photo attached. Should I be scared? A lot of horror stories online of miscarriages starting with brown spotting.

Yes it did look like mine. But like I said don't freak out! Just go to the er and have them do the blood work and do the fallow up!

I'm going through the same thing have an appointment on Friday call my doc and she told me it was normal as long as I don't see bright red blood then things are fine

Update, Pretty much no spotting today. No cramps. Just some mild nausea. I saw my OB/GYN and she did an exam. She saw no spotting from my cervix or anywhere and my cervix was closed. I felt much better but she still ordered two Hcg blood tests but in case. Here's hoping it was just some old implantation spotting working its way out! 6 weeks exactly today :)
