I am a clerk and should work 8 hours a day

AnswerAtefeh,
If you are only spotting twice a week, I would say, no you do not need to be on bedrest. If however, your bleeding increases, you should go to the hospital and you may be put on bed rest after that. A low-lying placenta usually will move out of the way as your uterus grows and stretches. If you feel cramping, you should call your doctor because he or she might want to place you on bedrest for a while. I hope this has helped you. Good luck!
