What Causes Spotting During Pregnancy?
I m 7 to 8 weeks pregnant and last night when I went to the bathroom there was some blood in my underwear, it was already mostly dry so I dont know what color it was to begin with. It was only a little and I haven t bled any since, but I m still worried. Im trying to get medicaid but haven t yet been approved and I cant afford to go to somewhere for an emergency visit. I have my first appointment tomorrow evening. Do you think its alright for me to wait to have it checked out then? What should I do?

Hi,
Spotting at 7-8 weeks of pregnancy could be due to threatened miscarraige ,or due to collection of blood behind the fetus called haematoma.
It is best that you get an ultrasound scan done the coming morning to know the cause.
