Pink discharge in early pregnancy may occur due to implantation bleeding, which is a small amount of light spotting or bleeding that occurs about six to 12 days after conception. This type of bleeding is not at all uncommon and is thought to happen when the fertilized egg attaches to the lining of the uterus. 

The fertilized egg has to burrow into the lining to implant — and the result can be a spectrum of discharge or spotting, from light pink to red to brown. Implantation bleeding usually occurs when you’d expect your period, but it will definitely be lighter than menstrual bleeding. Some women don’t experience implantation bleeding at all while others may not notice they have it.

It’s also possible that you’ll mistake pink spotting for a light period, though once you determine that you’re in early pregnancy, bear in mind that some cramping or spotting is normal as a fertilized egg implants and begins to grow in the uterus. However, if you are experiencing persistent cramping or bleeding, call your doctor as these may be signs of a vaginal or uterine infection or something rare and serious, like an ectopic pregnancy.
