Hey nicole... I'm pregnant with my 5th child. I've had 5 miscarriages as well so I'm hoping my answer will help. With my miscarriages I would start off with spotting that within a couple of hours turned Into heavy bleeding/ miscarriage. When I was pregnant with my oldest who is now 7 I started spotting as well. I started to think it was another miscarriage but with that pregnancy it was normal. I would spot on and off for three to four weeks till it fully stopped. Went to the doctors even ER and baby would have a heartbeat and my levels would continue to rise. Just take it easy (yes I know easier said then done when you have other kids at home) and no sex till bleeding fully stops. Keep an eye on the spotting.. if the bleeding gets heavy and if there is clots call doctor and let them know. Best of luck and will be praying for you and baby #3

But keep a close eye and don't ignore any cramping or increase in bleeding.

I had this issue, for me it was because I was still sexually active. When your pregnant, your blood vessels become much larger even in the cervix and surrounding areas, it can cause some minor bleeding.
