So do women get checked every time they spot?

I'm just curious if we should be going to get checked out every time we spot or just monitor to make sure it doesn't increase or become bright red? And if it does just happen the once briefly do you not worry about it?

I spotted light pink yesterday only one time when I wiped then it's been normal since, bubs has been moving but not as much as usual and my mother said she is probably facing into me so I can't feel as much and not to worry. I'm only 26 weeks so not at the 28 weeks when they say to do kick counting. I don't want to waste anyone's time if it's nothing to worry about at this stage so curious what others do/would do
