Spot t i ng dur i ng pr egnanc y is an issue faced by many women.
Spotting can occur during any stage of pregnancy.One should not
confuse spotting with normal vagi nal bl eedi ng .Spotting will be
experienced as a very light blood flow lasting for a day or two and will
have a color ranging f r om pi nk t o l i ght br ow n.
Spotting during early pregnancy can be a due to many reasons.It can
be implantation spotting caused by the implantation of the fertilized
egg on to your uterine wall. This is not at all a cause of concern and is
experienced by al most 80 per c ent of pr egnant w omen.
But sometimes spotting may be due to r easons l i k e ec t opi c pr egnanc y or molar pregnancy.
Spotting during early pregnancy can also symbol a miscarriage.If that is the case, then the spotting
will turn into heavy bleeding accompanied by the passage of fetal tissue.
But this neednt be the case always as spotting dur i ng t he f i r st t r i mest er can also be a symbol
of threatened miscarriage. In such cases ,miscarriage wont occur and the pregnant lady can go on to
have a healthy and normal pregnancy, provided adequate rest and care is taken.
