Pregnant after a Loss

Spotting question

How much is too much? When to call?

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but my loss was due to no heartbeat and I haven't dealt with spotting before. I haven't even been to my OB yet :(

    I always call with any spotting (I know others don't). IMO that's why the doctor is there. Sorry you are dealing with spotting- it is so scary!

    Sending good thoughts! Definitely call. You might get brought in for a checkup or blood tests that can help.

    Yep, what everyone else said - call your doctor. 

    I had spotting last week, and it was even expected, and I still called. I'd rather be overcautious than not cautious enough.

    Thanks all - I called and spoke to the nurse and she conferenced with my dr. and have me in a "wait and see" for the next 24 hours. She said if it was worrisome I'd be bleeding more than I described, so hoping it is nothing to worry about.  I see the dr. on Monday - even more nervous now.

    Be sure to tell the doctor if you're Rh negative if/when you call about spotting. They won't necessarily check your file, as that's a pretty routine call for them. (I'm a broken record on this topic. :) )

    Hope all is well! I had a fair bit of spotting with this pregnancy.

    @mingaling2‌ try not to stress. A lady I worked with spotted off and on throughout her entire pregnancy, did not get put on bed rest, went full term and delivered a perfectly health baby! Some women spotting is normal. T&P

    Glad to see that you called your doctor. I spotted week 6 and week 9. I'm 16 weeks now and haven't experienced it again. It is super scary. Hang in there. -hugs-
