Spotting for more than 5 days

[astrid06]

I just found out I am pregnant and based on HCG blood test the result showed it's 3rd wk pregnancy (28nov) however if it's based on LMP it should be 4th wk.
Since 23nov I experienced some spotting which I thought was the beginning of my period cause the date just match. But period never came till I checked and found out I am pregnant.
On 30 nov I didn't notice any spotting. But on 1 dec till today the spotting returns.
I don't feel cramps yet just sometimes uncomfortable feeling in my stomach but I think it's not a cramp.
Just visited OB yesterday and done Transv sonogram although not clear showed but he suspected 1 tiny dot as the embryo. Still uncertain and need to wait untill the next visit (10dec)
Currently he advised me to rest and not worry so much.
May I know your experience? Is it normal to have this spotting more than 5 days?
What should I do to stop it?
Thanks a lot for yor answers

today bleeding like a period.went to dr and he can see anything on the uterus. he gave medicine through anal and ask me to come back to see him again on saturday or if the bleeding becoming worst.
i think this pregnancy wont last and i just wish that if it does then make it quick and hopefully with no more pain and no more additional procedure.

Angela, thanks for your calming advise. I did ask for another HCG test but my doctor said not necessary, maybe because I just had one 5 days before I met him :)
I just wish this spotting go away soon so I don't need to just lay down in bed and stop my activities :(
This is my second pregnancy and my first was a lot easier. Don't feel anything all smooth and worryfree, so completely different than this one.
Is there any medicine that ease spotting?
Doctor gave me duphaston 10mg (3x/day) other than that I also have folic acid and other pregnancy vitamins
Thanks again for yor advise

There are some people that spot/bleed in early pregnancy.  Have you had multiple HCG tests to make sure your numbers are increasing?  If they are, then I wouldn't worry.  When I got my BFP, I went and had a couple blood tests done over the course of a week to make sure everything was doing what it should.
Also, you probably won't get a good ultrasound, even transvaginal, until about 8 weeks along - that is when I had my first one (transvaginal) - the earliest my doctor would do it - and we could then clearly see a baby taking shape with little arm and leg buds.  
I personally never had bleeding, but I know other people that did and everything turned out OK - best of luck to you! :-)
