Don't worry if it was just a little bit it's okay. I had that w/ my second several times through the pregnancy the DR said it was just things moving around to accomadte the baby growing inside. I know some ppl have lots of spotting for the first trimester.
If it gets to be a lot though put a call in to the DR.

Vaginal bleeding can occur frequently in the first trimester of pregnancy and may not be a sign of problems. But bleeding that occurs in the second and third trimester of pregnancy can often be a sign of a possible complication. Bleeding can be caused by a number of reasons.
Some basic things to know about bleeding are:
If you are bleeding, you should always wear a pad or panty liner so that you can monitor how much you are bleeding and what type of bleeding you are experiencing.
You should never wear a tampon or introduce anything else into the vaginal area such as douche or sexual intercourse if you are currently experiencing bleeding.
If you are also experiencing any of the other symptoms mentioned below in connection with a possible complication, you should contact your health care provider immediately.
First Half of Pregnancy:
Miscarriage:
Bleeding can be a sign of miscarriage but does not mean that miscarriage is imminent. Studies show that anywhere from 20-30% of women experience some degree of bleeding in early pregnancy. Approximately half of pregnant women who bleed do not have miscarriages. Approximately 15-20% of all pregnancies result in a miscarriage, and the majority occur during the first 12 weeks.
Signs of Miscarriage include:
Vaginal bleeding
Cramping pain felt low in the stomach ( stronger than menstrual cramps)
Tissue passing through the vagina
Most miscarriages cannot be prevented. They are often the body's way of dealing with an unhealthy pregnancy that was not developing. A miscarriage does not mean that you can not have a future healthy pregnancy or that you yourself are not healthy.
you need to go and see a doctor asap.

Sometimes there is break through bleeding that is not an indication of miscarriage, however, you should call your doctor and get it checked right away.
I had that happen at 7 weeks and unfortunately was the end of the pregnancy.
Good luck and I hope everything is OK.

Better safe than sorry. I say call your doctor or go the ER immediately. It doesn't sound too bad since there is no pain associated with it, but it certainly doesn't sound normal. It could be extra lining of your uterus shedding, but still go and have it seen about.

I don't know what that was but you should see a obgyn soon. could be a sign of miscarriage... or it could be nothing but you still need to see a dr.
When i was pregnant with my 3rd child i had a medium size blood clot come out with no cramps or bleeding... it was nothing to worry about but i still needed to be seen by a dr.

it sounds like a little break through bleeding (perfectly normal) and it happens sometimes...especially in first pregnancies.
I would call your doctor or call the emergency room (call the local hospital and they will put you through) just to make sure.
the doctor may want you to go in for a quick physical anyway, just to be sure that you and the baby are doing "fine."
good luck

You might have been spotting. Which is normal. But, if it worries you you should call your Dr. ASAP! I had the same thing happen to me. The Dr. just told me to rest with your feet up. Take it easy.
