When should I be worried about blood on an egg?

Our chickens began laying last week Monday. Since then two of them have laid one egg each with a little bit of blood on the shells. I assume this is because their bodies are not used to laying yet. Are there any signs I should look for that it could be more of a problem? I have Storey's Guide to Raising Chickens and it doesn't seem to go into the issue much at all.
 
I wouldn't worry. This is normal when they first start laying.
Now if you see LOTS than that could be a problem.
