Spotting question

I had cramping on Saturday and Sunday. Actually Saturday, they were def. contractions, but got better on Sunday. Then today, I actually felt pretty good. Very, very mild cramping, nothing that I have had for the past 2 days.

I went to the bathroom before, and there was a little bit of red blood on the toilet paper. Sorry if TMI, but it wasn't thick or anything, just on the paper. It happened twice. Now, I was standing waiting for our dinner for an hour (trust me, I never would have waited an hour, they told us 30 minutes at most...of course it turned into an hour) Do you think this could have caused it? (Please tell me yes!)

Re: Spotting question

Anything is possible.... have you started to/lost your MP yet? It could be the very beginning or end of that... but your best bet is to call your OB. I know they say you shouldn't stand for extended periods of time when PG but I always thought that was to reduce the swelling of legs and feet..... who knows. Seems like everyday we can/can not do something else! Feel better!!!

Re: Spotting question

Not sure how far along you are - but my OB told me (I have placenta previa) that often times, cramping will come with spotting because blood irritates the uterus and causes some cramping- I bet you standing for a long time could definately cause that to happen - make sure you're hydrated too !!!
