Spotting week 7-8

Katie

Has anyone else experience consistent spotting in their pregnancy?! My HCG numbers were lower in the beginning than what my doc thought was normal but regardless of that we got a heartbeat of 114 at 6-7 weeks and now he thinks all is great with the baby!

I started spotting last Tuesday at 7 weeks 5 days and I’m STILL spotting today! Last week on Thursday it was a good amount in the morning- I’d had an ultrasound scheduled for that afternoon and the heartbeat was stronger than the week before (140). It’s always pink or brown and never red and never accompanied by cramps but it has me feeling SO uneasy! I feel like I’m constantly just waiting to miscarry this baby and can’t ever just relax even though my OB tells me everything looks good! He’s also told me I don’t need to quit exercising or to stop having sex.

To be clear- I spot whether I workout or don’t or whether I have sex or I don’t. It doesn’t really matter. This is my fourth pregnancy and by far the most nerve racking of them all! I have 3 children and have never miscarried. I will be 9 weeks this Thursday.
