Is this normal?

Question

1st pregnancy here, I am 5 weeks 2 days and got a tiny speck of bright red blood. I didn’t have implantation bleeding so I’m a little worried. Any ideas?

Answer

I would be concerned about a speck of blood. I had that around implantation but remember at five weeks even though you’ve already gone through initial implantation there is still an implantation process that goes on for a while and sometimes there can be a tiny bit of blood as the placenta is beginning to develop as well. Everything is super sensitive in there and there’s a lot of things going on in your uterine lining! If it’s more than a spot of blood or you start getting heavier bleeding or see tissue coming out then I would call your doctor but other than that just take this time to rest your body and try not to worry!￼
