It is quite common !! Was the bleeding heavy, any passage of clots, any cramping, are you feeling more tired than usual ( considering that 37 wks. pregnant, you will be tired but, has it increased) or any dizziness?? If you have any of these symptoms, please contact your Ob/GYN Doc. At least,call the office and speak to a Nurse, for peace of mind. If the bleeding was heavy, saturating a thick pad ( diaper thickness) in 1-2 hours, accompanied by cramping,clots etc., dizziness then call ASAP.

for about a week I would spot after everytime I had an orgasm - I am in my first trimester though.. I read that it was from the contractions of the cervix (?) and the increased blood volume allows some blood to be lost with the contractions... =D that's just my experience TMI probably I'm sure~ oh well!

Yes, your cervix is getting soft and it can bleed easy. Mine bled like yours, and my doctor said it was fine.
I'm assuming that your placenta has been checked on songrams and it's up and away from your cervix. Women with placenta previa are advised to not have sex since it causes some minor contractions which can cause a placenta abruption.

It depends on how much it is. Some red spotting, expecially after sex, is normal. If it was gushing or heavy like a period, that is not normal.

Call your doctor.
