Hi..you should adhere to the advice of your doctor and follow the same..the only modification i would like to suggest is to get a transvaginal ultrasound for viability and site of pregnancy as soon as possible instead of 20 days later, as spotting might be normal but may also be a sign of threatened miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy..so better would be an early detection of the same if it's there in any case..
