Its very common in early pregnancy for some women to have some form of spotting. This some times scares moms but doctors normally don't worry about spotting unless there is cramping along with it. Did you have spotting in your early pregnancy? I have had spottin in both of my pregnancy of course this time around I didnt worry about spotting since I've had it happen before. Although with prolonged spotting you should call your doctor incase something is up because some medication if your in any can make bleeding longer. I have learned that bleeding in early pregnancy is always due to the factor of the egg implating in to the uterus lining and it diggs it's way in some times it does Cause some discomfort like a tummy ach but not like a cramp associated with a little bit of bleeding whitch can be light like a start or end of a period or a little bit heavy bleeding from time to time because of the lining. Horomons can help Implation if a women's hormone levels are low.

When the egg implants there can be a small amount of blood in a pregnant ladies knickers. If the lady gets bad cramping and bleeding she should speak to her midwife or doctor. Spotting in early pregnancy is common. Some ladies have hormone problems and can be assisted.

Yep and when a women has any question or concern they should always call. If there is bleeding and no cramps then wait a day or so before calling to see the doctor some times it clears up on there own.

Although common spotting can be a sign of an issue and should be checked on by a doctor. Most times though it is from the stretching and changing of the cervix. I had spotting with every pregnancy until the third month of each that was 5 pregnancies.

Most women think it's there period and pays not attention to since sitting always happens between week 1 and 4. Most all women's don't know they are pregnant till after they are don't spotting later on Ina pregnancy spotty giant good if there is no cramping there isn't anything to be worried about. I spotted twp with my daughter when I was 7 weeks and I had spotting that was my period a month before I found out about being pregnant. I would have thought the same thing with this baby of I hadn't took a test before my period even came or was suppose to come.
