It's a good sign that you're not bleeding any more. And if you are not having cramps then that's even better news, but if you really are worried then ask to speak to your midwife again, I've read that some women can have a bleed anywhere between six to fourteen weeks. And I think that we all panic at some point whilst pregnant, I do, if you're still worried or anything changes again you could also contact Nhs direct, they've been very helpfully to me in the pass, best wishes

The first few weeks the body is adapting to the hormonal changes and the new life. However,

I agree with thirdtimelucky that if you see more bleeding, call your health care provider again. Sometimes, you have to be a bit pushy... I happen to think that's okay. You are advocating for you and your baby. They can test to ease your worries.

I hope everything is ok. if it's any comfort, I had bleeding at 5 weeks and had to wait til 8 weeks for a scan but all is ok. I had no cramps and only that one instance of bleeding.

Please try not to worry too much, call the midwife and hopefully she can put your mind at ease.

Hi Lindsay298

I am in the same boat : apparently it’s not uncommon to have spotting or bleeding during the first trimester hence why many women don’t notice they are pregnant. Please see below and discuss with your doctor.
