I also told them I only noticed the spotting twice and nothing since. Because I was pretty pale, he came to the conclusion that I was dehydrated. I'm to rest, drink lots of water and keep as cool as I can. Sadly keeping cool is proving to be difficult. Our A/C Unit for the house is really old and the vent work in the house is terrible. So cool rags and fans for me. So far so good. Thank you everyone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/light-colored-spotting#post-2775021 Fri, 22 Sep 2017 21:32:08 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2775021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Gigglefits: Hope everything is ok!! You're a few days ahead of me but I just had the tiniest amount of brown and the doctor checked me just to be sure. Everything was/is fine. Hope you're doing ok!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/light-colored-spotting#post-2774921 Fri, 22 Sep 2017 12:27:54 +0000 Alba4 2774921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely check things out with your Dr. I had bleeding, both light and heavy, during DS2's pregnancy. I also had a complete placenta previa. Regardless, the doctors like to know. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/light-colored-spotting#post-2774842 Fri, 22 Sep 2017 05:29:39 +0000 NeonPink1234 2774842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely check with your Dr, just to be super safe. But I actually had a lot of full bleeding with my now 18 month old. First second and third trimesters. It was like a period and would stop after 3-5 days. No one ever knew why, but she's perfectly healthy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/light-colored-spotting#post-2774815 Thu, 21 Sep 2017 19:41:29 +0000 MaryM 2774815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Gigglefits: it could be from dehydration if you've been in the heat. Hopefully that's it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/light-colored-spotting#post-2774793 Thu, 21 Sep 2017 18:19:28 +0000 Gigglefits 2774793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaryM: Will do. My fiance thinks it may be due to the heat, I'm not sure about that though. It's been in the 90's in my area for the past three days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/light-colored-spotting#post-2774792 Thu, 21 Sep 2017 18:14:50 +0000 MaryM 2774792@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Until you can see the doctor, make sure to stay really hydrated and take it easy. Hopefully it's nothing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/light-colored-spotting#post-2774791 Thu, 21 Sep 2017 18:05:06 +0000 Gigglefits 2774791@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Clementine12: Thank you so much for the reassurance, it's a huge help. The the answer to your question is no on all accounts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/light-colored-spotting#post-2774789 Thu, 21 Sep 2017 18:03:12 +0000 Gigglefits 2774789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaryM: Nope today I just had a fetal reading and measurement. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/light-colored-spotting#post-2774787 Thu, 21 Sep 2017 17:53:14 +0000 Clementine12 2774787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hi - Pregnancy nightmares are the worst! I had some light spotting when I was pregnant with my now 4 month old in the second trimester - it was very scary to me at the time. Did they do any internal examinations at your appointment? Recent sex and/or exercise can also cause this.</p> <p>Since I had my baby, I have had 3 other pregnant friends mention that they're having light bleeding - some in the first trimester and some in the second. It is a lot more normal than I ever thought.</p> <p>Hope this helps :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/light-colored-spotting#post-2774786 Thu, 21 Sep 2017 17:52:11 +0000 MaryM 2774786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did you have an internal exam at the check up today? It could just be that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/light-colored-spotting#post-2774781 Thu, 21 Sep 2017 17:26:06 +0000 Gigglefits 2774781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Today I noticed some spotting when using the restroom. As of right now it's not enough to show on a pad, but I am worried. This is my first and I'm 25+6 weeks along. I had my appointment today and everything was fine until I got home around 3p.m. That's when I first noticed. There is no pain or abnormal discomfort. I will be keeping a close eye on things as well as making a phone to my ob/gyn in the morning. What's really got me worried though is that around two this morning I had a nightmare where I was bleeding uncontrollably and thought I was having a miscarriage. Man I hate nightmares. </p>
