I had spotting with my son until 13 weeks. It was always brown and he is perfect!

I calculate 60 hours doubling time for the first time slot and the second wasn't clear-either 40 or 80 depending on if you meant from Monday to Tuesday or Monday to Wednesday. The range should be between 48 and 72. Did the doctor say anything? 60 hours is still within the range. If it bumped up to 40 I would say that is a good sign. If it went to 80 be mindful of cramping or other symptoms. Hoping it sticks!

American preganncy association state the statistics for 'bleeding'..so surely better outcomes for just spotting..
"Brown or bright red bleeding with or without cramps (20-30% of all pregnancies can experience some bleeding in early pregnancy, with about 50% of those resulting in normal pregnancies)"

This is their site

Hi Katherine, I responded in ur previous post and I see u asked how I am doing..well, I had spotting twice last week and then I had pinkish-light brown spotting today.. I have no cramps...so trying not to worry to much..but easier said..i am 8 weeks today

I am curious - did they say in ur ultrasound that you had a retroverted uterus? that is what they told me and I was wondering whether that might be causing the sporadic spotting..

If you don't have any cramping - just try and think positive..btw , do you gave any pregnancy symptoms?

Wishing us both the best :)) God willing:))
