Q: Brown Spotting....

So about an hour ago I went to the bathroom at my college, and I had some brown spotting on my underwear, although when I wiped i didnt see anything else on the toilet paper. I have been trying to get ahold of the nurse at my doctors to talk to her about it. I was scheduled for an ultrasound on friday morning but luckily I was able to move it up to today at 3 since i havent got ahold of my doctor. By my last ultrasound I should be 7 weeks tomorrow......

Has this happened to anyone around this time??? If so what was your outcome?? I am trying not to freak out but its kinda hard....

By the way I havent had any cramping or anything.

Brown spotting is old blood from your lining. It is usually nothing to worry about when pregnant or not. What you should be alarmed about is bright red blood and cramping.
