Well the best thing is that you go to the doctor.

Welcome. I wouldn't worry about it, but do get it checked out with the doctor, it is surprisingly common for some women to have early pregnancy bleeding and many times no cause is found. Take a look at this page.

welcome to Yahoo answers! With both of my pregnancies I had mild spotting at least once a month for about the first 6 months. My doctor told me (each time!) that it was nothing to worry about unless it is accompanied by strong cramping or is heavy like a period. There are apparently many things that can cause you to spot in pregnancy…especially the beginning and the very end. I do suggest however that you follow through with calling the doctor when it happens though because there are certain occasions when spotting should be looked into. Your specific doctor should be able to tell you the specifications tonight at your appt. Good luck and congratulations!

Hi,
I don't think you need to worry but your doctor will confim this later, he may send you to your local EPU for an early scan. From what i know the time to be worried is when you have bright red blood and pain.
When i was 6 weeks pregnant I started bleeding bright red blood. It wasnt very heavy but obviously i was terrified. I went straight to see my doctor who made me an appointment at the EPU 4 days later. It was the longest 4 days of my life! Thankfully everything was fine and they told me that 20% of women bleed during pregnancy and 10% of them go on to have normal pregnancies. As the blood you have is pale i really dont think you need to be too concerned. Good luck later, I'm sure all will be fine xxx

It could go either way as you are still early and the risk is high. You are doing the right thing by seeing your doctor. I do hope all is well with baby. Good luck xxx

i wouldnt worry about it until you know why its happening.
im 21 weeks pregannt and during my preganncy ive had bleeding (we are talking bright red blood here) at 5,6,8,9,11,14+18 weeks and my baby is healthy.
i had a scan at 6 weeks and it showed my baby was fine and they told me it was likely that it was just my baby bedding itself into the womb whihcb can cause bleeding and can take a couple weeks to calm down.
if your not in any pain and the bleeding isnt heavy im sure everything will be fine.
good luck with everything!
