Brief Answer:
Dont worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi

I read your query and I understand your concerns.

Traces of blood seen in urine are normal and are probably due to minor infection in urinary tract or mild pressure on urinary bladder in pregnancy.

These come out as trace of RBC. If there is no pain associated then don't worry about it.
