What Causes Spotting During Pregnancy?
Went to the doctor I was 9 wks n 2 days but im 10 wks now but I’ve been spotting and the doctor told me that i had twins but one sac collapsed and the other baby was okay so do you think everything is okay with the one baby. Do you think I’m going to miscarriage with this whole pregnancy if the one baby is doing fine.. and is it normal to still be spotting only when I wipe. I also have no cramping at all...

Hi there, I have understood your concern and I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.
First of all do not panic.
In case of twins pregnancy, where one fetus is perishing during early pregnancy before 12 weeks, usually the surviving baby is not affected. This can happen if there are w different gestational sacs or two different placenta.
In such situations, the perishing pregnancy gets compressed by the growing, healthy pregnancy and gets thinned out. It usually does not harm the growing pregnancy and delivery at term
As per your query, you need to look after your spotting issue.
I will suggest you to take bed rest. Please seek prescription support from your treating doctor for Natural micronized Progesterone hormone tablet, 200 mg 3 times a day for 10 to 20 days. Get USG done at around 12 weeks to know about the growth and development of the pregnancy and also for chromosomal anomaly scan.
I will suggest you to opt for a healthy diet and regular exercise regimen after your bleeding or spotting stops. Take Folic acid and vitamin B 12 supplements regularly. This helps to prevent various complications during pregnancy and delivery.
I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
