hi,
some amount of spotting can be seen in pregnancy due to causes like,
as there will be increased blood supply to local organs, journeys, intercourse etc can cause spotting, some women can having spotting on their usual days of menstruation even in pregnancy,
so if you are not having any pain abdomen, no active bleeding and baby is moving well then no need to worry, can go for regular check up as usual.
take care.
