I am also 5 weeks pregnant. Age 41. Just found this forum. It's so nice to have other women to talk to who are in similar situations.
Thank you I was told to take it easy to.
Thank you so much this really helps me. I am not as young as I use to be. Lol
I was spotting as well, told no exercise period which was a bummer. I've tried light walks around my square twice since (I thought I might be better), and spotted within 12 hrs after both times. Talk to your doc and cut out all exercise and lifting in the meantime. Might just be old blood from implantation or your uterus starting to expand :)
I'm pretty sure you shouldn't be doing an work outs pregnant. Maybe not all that safe. I would ask the dr what exercises are safe during pregnancy so it doesn't happen again.
My baby is just fine at 15 weeks.
I had occassional spotting up until week 10. I was told it's normal.
