Spotting in early pregnancy can be normal and happens more frequently than one would suspect. Check with your ob-gyn if you have not already, Avoid heavy lifting and any new exercise. As to exactly why? I'm not sure
No, spotting after straining on the toilet is not normal in the first trimester. Any spotting or bleeding during pregnancy is not considered to be normal. While it could be implantation bleeding, it would be wise to get examined by your doctor or obstetrician.
An ultrasound machine would require an ultrasound transducer. These are required as they are the part of the machine that delivers the image to the machine.
One option would be The Academy of Health Care Professions in Austin, TX. The average salary of a ultrasound technician is $51,000.
No it is not normal to have your period while pregnant. I have heard of some small spotting while pregnant but if you have your full period while you think you are pregnant, you thought wrong. You would not be pregnant.
the cervix is very sensitive at this time. Any pressure on it at all could cause burst vessels and make spotting. Brown spotting is dead blood and is said to be not much concern unless it starts to become clotted and bright red. Call your doctor, have an u/s and get an internal to make sure your cervix is still closed tight.
Minor spotting doesn't always mean you have miscarried. Your best to check things out with your doctor, but if your baby showed a normal heart-rate just 2 hours previously, the chances are everything will be fine. But get checked out just in case.
I also am having some spotting at 7 weeks but only when I wipe and it's like a dark brownish reddish color. I had a transvaginal ultrasound about 3 days ago and the spotting started after that and hasn't stopped yet. I have no cramping or back pain and we saw a heart beat of 130 bpm and was told the baby is measuring right on target. My doc told me that spotting after the ultrasound is normal but I thought it would have stopped by now and I am freaked out. I have had 5 miscarriages all before 5 weeks (chemical pregnancies) and this is the first time we have seen a heart beat. Everything makes me so nervous. Please let me know what happens with you.
spotting occurs 6-12 days after your ovulation day
most likely that you are pregnant, there could be other reasons. if you are pregnant and spotting, i would get to a doctor right away. it could mean infection or miscarriage
Yes its absolutely normal to feel period like systems in the first trimester. Don't panic, relax...its your uterus stretching.
No, by that stage in a pregnancy, the baby would be ready to be delievered and would definitely show up on an ultrasound.
