A member asked:
Im 5 days late and took a hpt and it was positive.... now having small cramps and brown spotting... what could it be? and it's it normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can be normal: Cramping and spotting can certainly be normal when you are initially pregnant due to implantation of the embryo into the lining of your uterus. Heavier bleeding, like a period, can be a bit more concerning and might suggest a miscarriage. Your family doctor or OB can help assess these issues easily in the office.
