Spotting while pregnant

Q: I suspect that I am pregnant. I saw some pink spotting and regarded it as haidh. The next day I did a pregnancy test which was positive. However I am still not 100% sure that I am pregnant. I am still not experiencing haidh like I usually do. Should I consider myself in the state of haidh ?

A: If the bleeding does not continue for three days or more, then you will regard the spotting as istihaaza.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
