hi, I understand your query./concern. delayed period with spotting can be early pregnancy, the spotting can be due to implantation bleeding . But it has to be confirmed by blood hcg test,as it is sensitive around expected day of period. Urine pregnancy test can be done after 8 days delay in periods. You have to consult a gynecologist after you get test result for confirming the cause of bleeding/ normality of position of the embryo. Thanks.
