Question abt spotting in pregnancy

Hi all,
I am 5 weeks pregnant and my HCG at 4weeks is 325 and progesterone is 28.9. All was well until today morning. I noticed spotting very light. like 2-3 drops(sorry TMI). I am scared to death now. is this normal in early pregnancy. I am so scared because I already have a history of 2 miscarriages. Any answer will be a great help. I have another blood work done today.

Spotting is common during pregnancy so i wouldnt worry to much and your figures look like they are right for how far you are.

You're levels at 4 weeks look okay to me.. from what I understand they can vary quite a bit.. at 3w5d, my HCG was 175.. so if my levels doubled every 48-72 hours like they say they should, they would be over 300, so I think you're on track.. I am now almost 14 weeks. and I had some light pink spotting at 10 1/2 weeks and everything was fine.. Goodluck with your results let us know!

Everyone's body is different..... I wouldn't worry too much about the spotting unless you start cramping or bleeding... My level's were very low with my first one and he's 5! Spotting can happen early in pregnancy. The hormone changes can cause irritation in the cervix.. Causing you to spot....

At 5 weeks your hcg should be aroung 11,000 or so. WHen I was 4 weeks prego my hcg was almost 2000 already and at 4 1/2 weeks was over 10,000. Hope this helps
