    I am somewhere around 5-6 weeks along and I've been spotting for about a week now. I am scared and have been searching the internet for any reassurance. This u/s of your gestational sac looks exactly like mine! This picture, and your amazing documentation of your pregnancy has been an incredible help to me. Although I am not out of the woods, your site offered me some very needed comfort. Thank you so much!

      I am glad that this could ease a little of your concern.  Let me tell you that I did more ultrasounds that I can count in the 1st trimester for spotting. I would say that 90% of the time things are perfectly normal. It is just your body's way of adjusting to the pregnancy.  It is very common and I hope is just fine.  My baby is 3 months old now and AMAZING! Congratulations!
