spotting 7 weeks

Im 7 weeks today and have noticed very light spotting when going to the bathroom. I have no cramps but very worried considering i lost a baby just this past may. With my other child i didnt have any spotting, bleeding or cramping. So is this normal? Has one one had the same thing happen? Any suggestions or ideas?

Spotting with my first and now spotting with my second.. Three miscarriages in between and the bleeding is completely different.. This spotting is light and dull.. Brown sometimes.. Miscarriage bleeding was dark red and heavy.. Go to the dr if need be but i say keeping off your feet is the best idea...

as long as its not heavy bleeding or really like a dark red color then everything should be ok but if you're really concern call your doctor or go to the emergency room so they could do an ultrasound to make sure everything's okay sometimes it could be the uterus or the placenta

I had bleeding at 9th week with cramps...
They did scan. Baby was perfectly fine. After having my check up for few day I had brown discharge. Dr said its completely normal.. It could be your old blood.  Now I am 31+5 days pregnant and everything is normal so far.
I would say don't take stress. Go to the hospital for the safer side.

It CAN be normal for some women. Check in with your dr anyway just to be sure if you are concerned.  Best of luck

I'm 9 weeks, and just yesterday started experiencing the same thing. I spotted all throughout my last pregnancy and she was born full term and healthy. But like you I am also worried because I suffered a miscarriage just before I got pregnant with my last one. For the time being I am staying off my feet until I can go see a Dr. But if it gets worse I'm going to the er. I hope your situation turns out OK. I know that it is common for women to spot during the first trimester, but only about 50% go on to deliver full term babies. So hopefully it's just one of those things, but I'll be praying for you.
