Sounds like you may have placenta previa.  It's not a big deal most of the time since placenta moves up especially if yo uare in the 2nd trimester.  If you are in your 3rd trimester, placenta previa may cause some bleeding by putting pressure on your cervix.  If placenta does not move then you may have to have a c-section.  The important thing is that your baby is safe.
