You can wait for next appointment. See detailed discussion below.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to the 'Ask A Doctor'
I have reviewed your query and below is my opinion for your asked question.

The vaginal spotting mild bleeding is common during first 3 month of pregnancy.

The bleeding in early days of pregnancy could be due to implantation of embryo in uterine lining as well.

So it's not alarming sign to visit ER.

You can wait for next appointment for 1-2 week as per my opinion.

Hope I have answered your question

Let me know if I can assist you further
