I’m 7 weeks pregnant today, is this normal?

Question

Answer

Light bleeding or spotting in early pregnancy can be very normal. Always get checked if you’re concerned. If you’ve recently had an internal of any kind this is also a normal symptom due to increased cardiac output and increased blood volume.

Answer

I had this recently for maybe 7-8 consecutive days and I would spot for maybe an hour or two each day, with cramping as well. It never got bright red and was usually just when I wiped. I contacted my doctor who ordered blood tests 48 hours apart to measure progesterone and hcg. Results indicated that everything was fine and the bleeding stopped around the time of the second blood test and hasn’t returned. This is my fourth pregnancy (miscarried the first) and I didn’t have this with either of my successful pregnancies, so I was worried. I also experienced implantation bleeding this time around for about 2 hours at 12dpo. First ultrasound is about a week from now, so we will see for sure then! Contact your doctor and get some reassurance. Hoping you have a safe and healthy pregnancy!!

Answer

Heya my understanding that light bleeding on its own can be normal or abnormal - if it’s paired with significant cramp and/or gets heavier it’s reason for concern. Not here in having a chat with your GP for monitoring
