Spotting?

It's possible that the embryo is burrowing deeper into your uterine lining and causing some bleeding... it could just be spotting for no reason. I spotted for a few weeks in my pregnancy. It was very light though. My doctor told me it was OK as long as I didn't bleed through an entire pad. You may also spot if you've had intercourse because of the extra blood down there.

If it's just spotting and it doesn't go on for too long, I think you're OK. However, if it keeps up, if it's accompanied with cramps, if it's heavy or gets heavier, you definitely need to call your doctor.

It wouldn't hurt to call your doctor anyway, to put your mind at ease.

I initially thought you were pregnant but am not sure now. If you are pregnant, I will tell you that I spotted nearly most of both of my pregnancy. The first one they took me off exercise and had me lay around. The result was that I guess I am a bleeder. I had a couple of heavy spots with both pregnancies and I knew when that happened to back off any major efforts as precautionary. However a small amount of blood wasn't a real issue. I kept my doctor informed but I ran 3 miles a day for the 1st seven months of my second pregnancy after I figured it out. My doctor and I discussed it and as long as the running wasn't effecting the spotting I was fine. It did bother me though. Talk with your doctor to figure out how to handle it. Some people have full times of the month after being pregnant from what I have seen.

While I was pregnant with my first son I spotted alittle bit too. Everything was ok but just to make me feel better I did contact my dr. and was seen. You will probably feel alot better once you get comfirmation from your dr. that everything is ok. Take Care

You posted that you were pregnant again the other day right? If so, yes its normal. If it persists or seems like an actual period then go see your doctor but what you describe is normal. If youre in your early stages sometimes you spot when the placenta that your body is forming attaches itself to the uterine wall. Its normal, dont worry and congratulations!!
