Second tri spotting normal? Or should it be checked?
Im having some reddish pinkish spotting with no cramps yet im not too worried because hes being quite active and ive had a few kicks today but should i get it checked? I have my blood work for my iron in 2 weeks so maybe its my low iron levels?
Thanks.
I had spotting with this pregnancy, 3 times between 18 and 21 weeks-ish and each time I noticed it was after a bowel movement , so it was an innocent bleed.
I hope it clears up and is nothing to worry about.
Yes you should get the spotting checked out by your doctor. Spotting is not considered "normal" during pregnancy although it can occur for various reasons. It can be from you sensitive cervix after intercourse or a strenuous day or from something more serious. I've experienced it with this pregnancy(spotting and bleeding) and was relieved after going to the doctor and "knew" baby was fine. I also got an explanation which eased my mind. I believe it's always better to be safe than sorry. The fact that you're not cramping is good but check it out anyway. Keep us posted and best wishes.
I would get checked out as well, as the other have suggested it can happen after sex and it is great that you are feeling lots of movements but check it out, also the placenta can hit a blood vessel and cause a slight amount of spotting. Good luck I am sure it will be fine.
