You ladies were right. I went in for an examination due to light (brown) spotting. Unless it's "bright red and heavier than a period", there is no need to panic - even accompanied by mild cramping. Peri did a pelvic exam as well as a u/s. My cervix is in long and hard (?). The reason for the spotting is the location of Baby A's placenta laying on the cervix.
Thanks for the encouragment and support!
