Q: Spotting During Pregnacy

My fiance is spotting during her pregnacy, she is 8 weeks, and it has us both worried, she's not going to go to the doctor unless it continues or gets worse, is this a common thing? I read a pregnacy book, which now has me scared of a miscarriage. Am I just being a worry wart?

Spotting is okay as long as it's not getting heavier. Pain may also accompany a miscarriage.

Her back is killing her right now. This is her second child and my first. And she had no problems with the first (no morning sickness, no pains, she never knew she was pregnant until the third month) but this time she new in the first two weeks

and if it's bright red it's more cause to worry, as opposed to a brownish-red blood. But spotting can be very normal but better safe than sorry. If it continues have her call her doctor. Miscarriages are most common up to 12 weeks. Good luck.

thank you both, I may be ab;le to sleep tonight!!! :d
this first time it happened it was a normal red, but very little, and the last few times she checked it was a pink color, I just talked to her and she said the rest of the day she checked it was gone

Some women can spot during pregnancy and it is normal for some. Ex. After sex, after an exam and etc. As long as she isnt having pain or excessive bleeding with it
