Spotting?

Question

So ladies here’s an emotional rollercoaster all over again..
So Iv had my bfp after my transfer and I started spotting.. not much at all if I’m honest 
(Tmi sorry kinda like streaky bloody snot! ) 
I thought it would be a little late for implantation! 
Tests still super positive and darkening 
Has anyone had this and it’s been ok ?  
Please comment good or bad 🙏

Answer

Hi Gemini 💛 
Arg, so sorry you’re going through this. It’s an emotional rollercoaster! 
I’ve been on both sides of this … had spotting and ended in an early MC and again had bleeding around the same time and now almost 20w. 
When is your US? Hang in there. Sending you strength! It’s soooo hard 💛

Answer

Hey Gemini, My prior experience was not an IVF pregnancy but I had spotting from 4 - 12 weeks (and now have a healthy 2 yr old). I was on the vaginal progesterone too. I was told on scans that they saw a small subchorionic hematoma and that was believed to be the reason for the bleeding. I was also suspicious my cervix was irritated from the progesterone though. Sorry I know it’s so stressful 😥 Your clinic doesn’t do a blood HCG test at all? Where are you if you don’t mind me asking?

Answer

I had spotting from week 6-12, sometimes more than spotting (gushes of blood) sometimes red, sometimes brown. Mine was a sub chorionic hemorrhage and the only thing that made it go away was time.  I checked the toilet paper every single time I peed until I delivered, I was stressed my entire pregnancy because of it. That being said I have a very happy and healthy little boy. 
Best of luck!

Answer

I’m 11 weeks. I’ve been spotting on and off since 9 weeks. It’s driving me nuts. Doc said it happens, nothing to do and wait and see. I know the feeling. I’m with you!

Answer

I also had some spotting. I had a hematoma that went away around 10 weeks. I'm about 23 weeks now and still paranoid.

Answer

Are you on vaginal progesterone? I had this with my first FET and she’s now a healthy 19 month old. They said it was likely due to irritation from the progesterone and my doctor wasn’t concerned since the spotting was light and more pinkish/brownish in color and not bright red, however I totally understand the anxiety and I requested to have another beta to ease my mind. Maybe that’s an option for you and would help make you feel better? I’m sorry I know it’s an emotional roller coaster the first few weeks (and if I’m truthful it was for me until I hit 36 weeks- ivf is traumatizing).
