Hard to say: Spotting and discharge are not uncommon early in pregnancy. It may be from the pregnancy, a vaginal infection, inflammation of the cervix, or other nonpregnancy cause. Bleeding from a pregnancy does not automatically mean a miscarriage. Your doctor can assess your pregnancy and try to determine cause of these symptoms if they persist. If no cramping, it is likely not an issue.

Common not normal.: Any bleeding during pregnancy needs to be evaluated promptly by your doctor. About 50% of women experience some degree of bleeding in early pregnancy making it very common but not normal. Most are fine but sometimes bleeding can indicate a tubal pregnancy or miscarriage. Contact your Obgyn and have them evaluate the bleeding
