Yes: Vaginal bleeding during the first trimester of pregnancy can be a sign of threatened abortion. It can be more serious if you are having abdominal/pelvic pain. Call your OB on call or if you do not have one, go to an emergency room for an ultrasound.

Threatened abortion.: Bleeding in the first trimester is called threatened abortion. It is not that uncommon and typically has to do with subchorionic hematomas that develop as your placenta invades the uterine vessels - to grow. Bed rest and pelvic rest (i.e. No intercourse) are advisable, as well as avoidance of all nsaids including Aspirin (tylenol (acetaminophen) ok). Take Folic Acid >1 mg daily and keep your faith - good luck!
