Answer 1

Spotting the first trimester of pregnancy is not uncommon. However, you are not having major bleeds, or complaining of pain, so this is all good signs.

I think what could be going on with you, is that your uterus perhaps is contracting a little after intercourse. This is common, after orgasm. So this possibly, could be the reason why you are spotting a little.

If I were you, since you are very early in your pregnancy, I would limit your sexual activity right now. Even though I dont think you have a serious issue, keep in mind that spotting can mean several things, such as a threatened miscarriage. Usually, threatened miscarriaged come with pain and heavy bleeds. But non the less ..better safe then sorry at this point, your pregnancy is still young, and fragile

Answer 2

spotting is completely normal, it was either a sex injury (i bleed when Im not lubricated enough) or it's just your body still clearing itself out for the implantation, making room for the baby. This happened to me and I freaked and went to the hospital and everything was ok. if it gets heavier or accompanied with strong cramps go to the doctor right away! And of course if nothing here eases your mind, go see a doctor. I must warn you though, and ER doctor is way to quick to say that it's a miscarriage so I would go to your regular obgyn!

Please call your midwife to double check, you never know & its better to be safe than sorry!
I am 31 & a half weeks pregnant with my first baby and i have been having very regular sex all the way through my pregnancy & i have not spotted or bleed once but thats just me?

Hope all works out ok for you. xxx

Answer 4

COMPLETELY NORMAL. The cervix becomes 'friable' during pregnancy. This means that it is more vascular, and when it is touched, it will bleed a little. Some women have a more friable cervix than others.

Unless you have a placenta previa, preterm labor or other complication, you are OK to have sex.

Answer 5

Don't be scared if it was just a little spotting. Call your dr and have him look at you. I spotted with all 5 of my pregnancies at some point or another. I would definately not have sex till you see the dr.

Answer 6

had a friend whoexperienced something like this, too. the doctor said that it was normal.

but do check this up with your doctor first. sometimes, bleeding after sex especially if you're in the early weeks of pregnancy might mean something is wrong.

Answer 7

i spotted at 9 weeks after sex and totally freaked out so i know what you are going through. when i talked to my ob nurse she told me it was totally normal and to not get upset as long as it was not accompanied with heavy bleeding, cramping, or clotting.

Answer 8

Do not get scared. You had sex on 14th week, but I had 2 hours before. Since vaginal portions have sensitive skin layers, some scratches must have occurred, hence little bleeding. Next time ask your fiance to have it smoothly, and ask him apply some good "white petroleum jelly" before..... .

Answer 9

It is normal for some spotting to occur. Unless you have further problems there is no need to worry.

Answer 10

It's probably nothing to worry about. But to be safe, a phone call to your OB is warranted. Just to let him/her know and see what they think.
