Hello,
Spotting during pregnancy needs to be investigated. This can be suggestive of onset of labor pain. Purple spots on vagina can be due to accumulation of blood. I suggest you to consult your gynecologist for clinical assessment of the developing baby.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
