I am 4 weeks and 3 days pregnant and noticed that after i had a BM (after straining quite a bit due to constipation), I had light pink spotting on the toilet paper. I am super nervous, has anyone ever had this before???

I think you're probably ok as long as it wasn't red or accompanied by cramping. You could always call your doctor and just ask them what they think. They probably get calls like that often and it might make you feel better!

Other thought, maybe it was from the back and not the front...especially if you've been constipated! :oops:

I had a bit of spotting around 17 weeks and was just fine. My best friend had spotting every single day for a long time, and bright red too, and her precious girl will be turning 1 in a few weeks! I agree with Ash though, if you are worried call your doc and they will set your mind at ease. I actually went in to hear the HB after my spotting to make sure everything was fine!
