Any time you have blood you need to notice your doctor. It is very common to have spotting during pregnancy but it is also can be dangerpus. And instead of thinking about it, just go check if everything is alright. See that everything going on normal will help your mind a lot. It helps me any way. Trust your body also. You can feel if something going wrong or not.

It os very common for a women to spot the first couple of months in your pregnancy. I spotted in all my pregnancy, it is scary to see blood when ur pregnant but u also have to remember if ur body hasnt been thru something like this before...being pregnant then it's going to go thru alot of changes, and bleeding is one...Im 34 weeks 4 days along now and for the first 2 months i bled for weeks at a time and had little clots..with No pain. I have had miscarriages and i dont care what anyone says they are very very painful...only one exception when ur baby doesnt make it and ur body doesnt understand and i had one of those, but there is no pain and no blood thats why a DnC is required....hope this helps and good luck

Try to relax and not nervous.  Call your doctor and describe what you have and feel. Most likely they will do blood test or sonogram to be sure that everything is ok. But not exercise,  lift or have sex before you see you doctor. What you need, is calm down. Stress can only make it worth. But it is very possible you are fine. Happened the same to me. Good luck!

Best bet is to go and get checked out let your doctor tell you if it's normal or not with my first pregnancy I had brown spotting and I ended up miscarring so in my case it was not normal but some women have spotting and go on to have healthy pregnancies good luck mama

With a miscarriage you can have spotting or heavy bleeding. I barely spotted with the baby I lost at 13 weeks. I went to the er and they could not get a heartbeat. A second ultrasound confirmed the baby had died. I had to have a D&C because my body would not pass it. With the baby I lost at four weeks I thought I was bleeding to death. If your really worried just go to the ER and they can do an ultrasound. It will ease your mind.

There's nothing they can do at eight weeks for preventing miscarriage. I miscarried at eight weeks, no spotting before hand. Just tissue clot

No, they led to two healthy babies. I've had two miscarriages though and with one I bled very heavy with huge clots. The other I spotted. You never can be too sure. Sometimes its just hormone changes. Lots of women have spotting though. Try not to worry but if it doesn't go away get checked. I would let the doctor know anyways.

I spotted with two of my pregnancies during the time I would normally have my period for the first three months. It was very light though and only lasted about half a day. If it increases or is bright red go to the ER.
