This is normal.....yes???
i know - we see these posts so frequently...but i need to be told that it's normal....
i am spotting today - lightly, nothing major - but i went to the bathroom twice today and had spotting....had a pain at one point 'down there' - but cramps haven't been bad AT ALL today....
this is normal, right???
i keep saying that to myself...but it's not helping...i'm a worrier by nature.
i'm 9 weeks, 3 days...

I spotted twice early on in my pregnancy. But, if you feel uncomfortable call your doctor.

I think it is normal, I have been having slight spotting also lately, I am 10 weeks 1 day. I was thinking about calling my obgyn tommorrow just to make sure.

From what I've heard, it's normal. I would definitely touch base with your doctor though.

Re: This is normal.....yes???
Spotting is normal...
What color is the blood...????
From what I heard (and Im not even sure Im right..)
dark brown=old blood
Red/pink- is usually fresh and COULD indicate a problem...

Re: This is normal.....yes???
the color - i don't remember exactly....to be frank.
i want to say reddish/brown...
i've gone to the bathroom maybe 13-15 times in the past few hours - it was there 2 times...
i'm in the middle of doctors. My RE released me and my OB appt. isn't until the 18th..
I COULD call my RE and they could have me go in tomorrow - i'll wait and see if there's more blood tonight and do that if there is.

Jess I would definitely call the RE just to give you piece of mind. I am sure it is nothing but just to make yourself feel better, I would call.

I really think you are fine... but I would probably call just to be sure

Re: This is normal.....yes???
Spotting probably normal, but call if it will help you relax. My paperwork from my doctor said some spotting is normal, but if it becomes constant or heavy, call, or if you are passing larger clots in the spotting, to save them to bring to the office.

Hey sweety!
I'm sure it's completely normal but like the other ladies have said, I would just give your RE a call tomorrow just to touch base. Besides, it will feel even better when THEY tell you it's normal and not to be concerned.

I spotted a few times in my first tri. Probably normal but you can get your hcg checked for reassurance

Definitely call. My Ob told me that anytime I had spotting he wanted to know....he didn't care what color it was.

Re: This is normal.....yes???
i haven't had another instance - i am going to call in the morning - without a doubt - and just let them know that it happened. I will call the RE.
If i see even the TINYEST bit again tonight - i will call the RE's 24 hour service.

This sounds like a good plan Jess. I'm sure you're fine!
