Needing a bit of reassurance

[vtdiamond]

I was told to call for any spotting, so I would probably call.

((hugs)) hoping it's nothing and stops soon.

I hope everything is okay!

I would put in a call to your doc just to let them know and see what they say. FWIW 3 days after my NT I had a bleeding episode and it was an SCH that resolved on it's own after a few weeks so it's possible something can come out of nowhere. Try to take it easy in the meantime.

I would call.

That said, I had a fair amount of red blood @ 5w2d which turned brown the next day, then I also had some brown spotting after a pap smear @ 10w (did not go in after that since they warned me it could happen). And I'm sitting here at 24w with baby kicking me in the bladder. So although worrisome, it definitely happens.

Hopefully it's nothing, but call your doctor for peace of mind.

Some spotting is totally common. Call your OB to check in for peace of mind. Thinking of you.

I agree that I would call. I had some spotting (although mine was brown) the other day and calling reminded me that hello, my placenta is low, 99% likely to be the cause! It made me feel better to talk to someone and to know they weren't overly concerned about it. I hope it's nothing!

[jennistarr1]

Definitely call

I also suggest calling...even if it's not a lot of blood, and you don't have cramping they could tell you it's completely normal and not to worry, or they might want you to come in tomorrow if it keeps up.

Either way, I think calling and getting an official answer from the OB would ease my mind I'm sure they're used to tons of questions and don't mind talking to you about it

((Hugs)) @pennypie. Spotting sucks, I would call in the morning, hopefully it's nothing.

Glad it seems to have subsided. I started spotting tonight for a bit and it's stopped already. Very nerve wracking for sure! I will call the doc in the morning but I am not concerned. Hugs.

Rest tomorrow as much as you can. Hopefully it stays away now. At my NT scan they pressed really hard on me. To the point I was uncomfortable.

[blushing]

Could anything have irritated your cervix? Was the NT scan vaginat? Or have you had sex recently? All those things can make you spot. No cramps is a good sign though. I am glad you are calling your doctor.

The only time I had spotting was the day after my NT scan. They used the "other" more invasive ultrasound to measure my cervix during the appt.

[azurely]

That's a really good sign if the spotting has stopped, but I'm glad you're going in anyway. Hope you get some peace of mind going into the weekend!

All is well. No UTI, heartbeat sounds good, cervix looks good. They gave me an early rhogam shot since I'm A-, but just out of an abundance of caution.

Everything is a-okay!

Thanks ladies!

Damn spotting can be such a scary thing. Glad everything is OK!

[Bonita]

Yay, glad to hear everything is great! :-)

[zarapipe]

good luck!
