What Causes Vaginal Bleeding During 8 Weeks Of Pregnancy?

I am about 8 weeks pregnant, I have been very stressed out & about 3 days ago I started bleeding. It wasn t like a period, but it was enough to say it wasn t spotting. I have been discharging a lot as well. I have had a uti just been busy & haven t had time to go get it worked out. Do you think this is a sign of a miscarriage?
