Got a BFP on Friday...but a little scared today.

Hello everyone. I got a BFP on Friday, and I think I am 4 weeks. I am still in shock but extremely happy and excited.

I do not want to tell some friends/family yet.

Anyway, when I went to the bathroom this morning, I wiped and saw some brown like I was getting my period. It's kind of going away, but still faintly there. I took another preg test and it's still positive.
Should I be concerned?
Thanks!

congratulations!

have you called your dr yet to make your appt for your first checkup? if not, then do so and tell them that theres some brown spotting. if you have already, i would call them again and let them know cause maybe they'll want to see you earlier.

spotting early on is completely normal so i wouldnt freak, easier said than done i know. i had some brown spotting in week 5 also but as soon as i hit week 6 it stopped.

First off Congrats!!!

spotting throughout pregnancy especially early on is normal...i would still call my doc to make an appointment and let them know you were spotting.

Congratulations on your BFP.

As others have said, I would call your doc to be on the safe side. Mine said that while spotting is common, especially early on, it's never "normal" and should always be checked out.

Hoping it all works out for you - {{{{{{{{{sticky vibes}}}}}}}}}}

Congrats!!!

I actually had the brown discharge and thought I GOT my period. When that discharge only lasted 2 days, I got curious and that's when I started my pregnancy tests. I think I took 4 before I actually believed it!! Call your doc, but I definitely would not worry too much.

Congrats! I never had any experiences with spotting, but from what I hear, it's pretty common.

Congrats! I had some light brown spotting at around 5 weeks, it lasted for 3 days and was mostly noticeable when I wiped...I called md and they had me go in, it turned out to be nothing. I would call md and see what they say.
