Spotting and Cramps... normal?

[NothingButBlueSkys]

So i just found out i'm pregnant and i was due to get my period the 18th but since the 16th i've been having what started out as just cramps but now along with brown spotting/brown discharge. It is mostly when i wipe but sometimes i'll see a drop on the liner i put on. I was supposed to have ovulated the 3rd so i feel like this would be late for implantation.. I've tried to google it and all i could find was "20 percent of pregnancy's experience some sort of bleeding and half of those will go on to have miscarriages which worries me.. Anyone experience this and have a normal pregnancy? Thanks.

no sorry i havent but i hope everything is ok - i think spotting without cramps would be better - the fact your having cramps too worries me as i had cramps when i had my miscarriage. I will keep my fingers crossed for you that this is not the case though and that you go on to have a healthy pregnancy

It "can" be normal but it can also mean miscarriage maybe take a preg test

Yes I had spotting with my third and fourth pregnancys at 5, and 9 weeks. With cramping. However, I still went to the hospital to get checked out and I always thing that is a good idea.
