amniotic sac

I just had an ultrasound where the doc said that I have a little blood around the amniotic sac and he said that its normal. Has anyone had this before?

Yes last week they saw a small one too, told me not to worry about it but just in case if I did have any bleeding to go to the er, just to make sure the baby is alright.

Yeah its actually quite common. A lot of times in pregnancy you'll get a cut behind the sac which will cause bleeding. Don't be surprised if you see blood on your underwear since depending on the size of the cut it could cause you to bleed externally. I had kinda a large one and ended up bleeding almost every day for 5 weeks worse than a period and I'm now 37 weeks. Usually they will resolve on their own before the 20th week and in no way will it affect the baby or cause you to miscarry.
