my wife is 8 weeks pregnant, we had an internal exam/ultrasound on monday, today she called me from work, crying, that she had some spotting (blood on her underwear and toilet paper) ...is this normal? from what I have just read online, that it is common following an internal exam, but it's 3 days later! we saw the heartbeat and everything looked fine..dr said she may spot after intercourse, which we haven't had recently, but again, I did read she could spot after an ultrasound and this could be old blood that is just making it's way out now..my wife is very concerned b/c we have been trying for 12 months, her cousin has been trying for 2 yrs and miscarried after 8 weeks and another co-worker just miscarried after in vitro---any suggestions how to calm her down, myself as well, now?!?!
