Hi Everybody, I am currently 18.4 weeks pregnant with twins , mine is ivf pregnancy. I had spotting in first trimester did couple of scaning and everything came up fine. Since then i observe keenly weather i am getting anything or not. Most of the days 2,3 times i can see very light spot of dry blood, it's not even visible ,i observe very keenly that's why i can see it. But sometimes i can very light spot of pink spot. Day before yesterday i had an apponinment dr said everything is fine and we heard babies heart beats... But i am really really worrying abt that light spoting.. i am scared that it may be sign of preterm labour or any cervical problem. Plz give me an anser and help me.

Especially eHealthy

spotting during pregnancy is extremely common

if its brown or pink blood then its okay
however if its ever red or you start cramping you need to go to the dr

Go see your doctor and get it checked out. They are the only ones who will be able to tell you for sure. If your doctor says you shouldnt worry about it then I wouldnt worry about it.
