I bled for 5 weeks bright red worse than a period during my pregnancy and had everything continue in a normal manner. When you got your ultrasound did they give you a reason for the bleeding? Or if you bd last night that can cause spotting as well.
Sometimes spotting can not be explained. I had it for one day right before I turned 12wks. I went to the ER, because I had already had a mc that had tons of spotting/bleeding so I was absolutely terrifed. Anyway they said they could see the bleeding but did not know where it was coming from. So they put me on bedrest for a week. After we left the ER, my spotting had almost ended immediatly. I still stayed home for that week, with my legs propped up and drank lots of water. I am now 23wks and the spotting never came back (knock on wood). I would just inform your doctor and try to take it easy.
I am sure that if it stopped once already by itself then it probably will again. I wish you the best and I know your little bean will stay right were it is!!!
I had some brown/purple spotting this morning at 20 weeks and was freaking out. I had two miscarriages last spring and have a blood issue I take baby aspirin for. They told me to come in and have an u/s to check on things. Everything was fine. I was told that the cervix is really vascular and it could have been many different things - one being intercourse (which didn't happen). I did have blood in my urine, but the spotting stopped pretty quick and I haven't seen anything since. They said to take it easy over the weekend, no intercourse for a few days. I have a regularly scheduled appt on Tues and the dr will check my cervix at that point. So in the meantime - I'll spend as much time as I can sitting still. Good luck.
