yep, the snail trail starts very early and, in my experience, only gets worse.
as for the blood, was it bright red or brown or pink? brown blood is usually old blood and is the most reassuring - but having said that, many women bleed early on for various reasons and it's totally normal. so i would keep an eye on it and contact your OB if you see any more if you have any pain or cramping with it.
call your doctor to make sure everything is ok. S/he should be aware of any spotting. It could be from the placenta forming. Try not to worry which I know is hard
