Bleeding Spot-That’s Alarm Bell

Will that be normal pregnancy symptom to have spot or bleeding during pregnancy, especially in early pregnancy?  Some pregnant women or even some books said it is possible to get the period during pregnancy.  But this must be unexceptional case or I miss any point.  So many questions come in my mind, and it is about time to learn if it is really dangerous.

Check the color, implantation bleeding is lighter than menstrual bleeding, and consists of pink or brown colored blood. It occurs when the trophoblast, or tissue that surrounds the egg, attaches to the endometrium and slowly eats its way into the lining. As it does so, it eats through the mother's blood vessels, forming blood lakes within itself. When these blood lakes form near the surface of the trophoblast, they often cause implantation bleeding.
