Is this kind of spotting bad? Please help!

edited December 2022 in 1st Trimester
I’ve been having discharge mixed with a little bit of fresh blood. Makes it look bright pink when I wipe. It’s been a day of this. Husband and I had sex two days ago. I feel fine but am so scared.

    Call your doctor.  They may reassure you or bring you in for some blood tests or ultrasounds.  I know how scary spotting can be.  I had it from weeks 6-20 and my doctor was helpful in determining when I should be concerned and what was normal.  Spotting can be very normal in pregnancy but can also indicate an issue.  Wishing you the best.

    You had sex 2 days ago.  The cervix got irritated so there is a bit of blood from the irritation of having sex. 

    If it gets worse (filling a pad in a short time) and/or cramping begins_ intensifies then call your nurses line.  

    The cervix irritation is most likely the cause, just keep an eye on it.
