A member asked:

Had a csection 6months ago. pregnant again this time spotting light pink brownish color. could this be due to my uterus still healing from the csectio?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Doubtful: The uterus heals pretty quickly so i don't think this is the case. Implantation of the embryo can lead to light spotting - this is very common.
