Possibly: You can sometimes get spotting in early pregnancy, but that can also be a sign of threatening miscarriage and also can be a sign of other abnormalities related to your cervix or uterus. Have your gynecologist order a quantitative blood pregnancy test and make an appointment to see him or her. For more info www.Askyourgynecologist.Org.
