Hi,

Blood in urine is not normal at any stage in pregnancy and should be evaluated further. Moreover you have protein as well and the baby is smaller than expected. All these point towards pre-eclampsia.
You should get your blood pressure checked and get a detailed blood tests for liver function and renal function and ultrasound for size of baby and amniotic fluid level. You should also get Doppler ultrasound to see the well being of the baby. A Fetal heart trace will also be required.
Also a scan of your kidney is required to rule out anything abnormal.

Hope this helps.
Regards.
