Spotting AFTER uterus stretching

I had cramping all day Saturday. I wasn't worried because I had just seen the baby on an abdominal ultrasound Friday morning (not transvag this time so that can't be the reason for the spotting). I'll take the cramping as uterine stretching. But then this morning I had dark brown all over the tissue (quite a bit) when I wiped. Has this happen to anyone? Obviously it wasn't spotting and cramping at the same time but they were hours apart.
