Did you spot in your first trimester and go on to have a healthy pregnancy?

Question

My friend is 6 weeks pregnant and started spotting this morning. I know it’s considered normal, but we’re both concerned. I was wanting to know of other girls who went through it and had healthy pregnancies to put our minds at ease. (Since it’s Saturday she can’t get in to see her OB)

Answer

I spotted with two healthy pregnancies and did not spot with my missed miscarriage. It’s always best to have her contact and see her doctor to see what the cause is because it’s not always  considered normal.

Answer

At 9.5 weeks I had what seemed like the start of a full on period - I was terrified. It lasted about three hours and baby was completely fine, I had no other complications that pregnancy.

Answer

I spotted from 6 weeks until 13-15 weeks. I had a hematoma that caused spotting, but cleared up by 20 weeks!

Answer

Very hard to say. I’m pregnant now and spotted dark brown and haven’t since and I’m 12 weeks currently and everything is fine. But right before this pregnancy I spotted dark brown which after a week turned red and I had a miscarriage. Prayers to you.

Answer

Spotting in pregnancy is never “normal” but it can be common. There are many women that spot and go on to have healthy pregnancies.

Answer

I've had it both ways. With my chemical pregnancy it started as light brown spotting and slowly got heavier, darker, and redder over about 5 days or so until I was bleeding like a full-on period. When I was pregnant with my son I started spotting light brown around 6 weeks and thought I would miscarry again. I had two times where it was a little heavier and a little darker but it didn't get progressively worse. I spotted from week 6 to week 10 and I had no complications during my pregnancy. I now have a perfectly healthy 3 month old. 😊 Tell her to keep an eye on it and not to worry unless it gets worse. I know how it feels!

Answer

I spotted multiple times throughout both of my pregnancies. One is a healthy 2 year old and the other was born healthy yesterday. My OB said some women just tend to spot.
