Spotting while PG

Hi Ladies - it's been awhile since I've posted here.........After 5 IUI's, 2 IVF's and 2 miscarriages, we are finally PG.  And the funny thing is that it all happend naturally - whoa!!!!!!  Anyway, my question is that with this PG I am spotting a little, which I never had with any of my other PG's.  It's really only a small tint of color when I go to the restroom, but its still concerning.  When I went to my specialist last week my progesterone had dropped from 42 to 38 so they started me on progesterone shots every other day.  I'm wondering if this is enough?  Has anyone experienced spotting before and not had any future complications?  Just curious what to expect..........thanks.

I have been spotting on and off since 6 weeks or so.  I have even had 2 episodes of bright red bleeding that scared me half to death!  I am almost 11 weeks now, and everything is fine with baby.  I heard his/her heartbeat on doppler today and it was 157, which is perfect for this stage.  2 ultrasounds have showed everything is just fine as well.  No one can tell me why I am spotting and bleeding, but whatever it is, it doesn't seem to be affecting my pregnancy.  I know it's worriesome, but try not to.  The statistics are the 30% of women will experience some form of trimester bleeding, and most will go on to have normal healthy pregnancies.  Best of luck to you!!

I had severe bleeding at 9 weeks, 10 weeks and 12 weeks.  I'm talking bright red, with huge clots.  It was scarey.  Come to find out I had 2 cervical polpys in my cervix.  A lot of woman experience bleeding during there pregnancies and turn out to be fine.  Adgal is experiencing some bleeding and spotting and she is not 10 weeks and still going strong.  I would make your doctor aware.  Good Luck to you.

I was bled at 9 weeks... everyone said it's normal but I was afraid.. Went to see doctor next day and she put me bed rest until 12 weeks... I also on prometrium 100mg since 6 weeks until 11 weeks...

After bed rest... I do not have any spotting... Today I am 12 weeks 4 days.  Funny thing about me is that I got pregnant naturallly... on my own.. no fertility medicine.

So if you do have spotting.. take it easy and bed rest as much as you can... it's worth it...

I guess there is miracle...

Good luck and take care..
