Does having blood streaks after finding out about pregnancy affect the child's development?

Patient's question:

I will be working from September 9th to September 17th. My menstrual cycle has always been irregular, with periods ranging from 20 to 40 days. On September 30th, I tested positive for pregnancy, but on October 1st, I had pinkish blood and went to the hospital for an ultrasound, where no gestational sac was found. On October 2nd, I had a blood test, which showed progesterone at 7.16 and another value over a thousand. Sometimes I experience irregular, needle-like pain in my abdomen. Can the baby be saved?

Doctor's answer:

From the careful examination results of the ultrasound, it should be an intrauterine pregnancy, with an approximate size of about 34 days of gestation. No signs of rupture were detected within the uterus. Therefore, a small amount of bleeding does not interfere with the normal development of the embryo. In this case, more than half of the embryos would not be affected. You can have another blood test for human chorionic gonadotropin. If it has increased to approximately 3,000, it proves that the embryo has been developing normally, and there is no need to worry. Rest, avoid sexual intercourse, and avoid strenuous exercise. Maintaining a positive mindset will help promote the embryo's growth in a favorable direction.
