Hi,
I have just been for my 2nd early scan cos I keep bleeding and getting brown discharge. The doctors said that the baby seems ok and that some women can just bleed. However I seem to bleed the day after I have had sex. Does anyone get this? And/Or if so do you think I should keep having sex? The doctor said that some women do bleed after sex and that is harmless to the baby but I you can probably imagine its not very nice.
Any advise welcome.
Thanks

The cervix usually becomes sensative during pregnancy which could result in bleeding. Personally, I would not have sex if that is the only time it happens. That's not to say that you can't do anything, I would just avoid actual penetration. I'm surprised your doctor didn't recommend "pelvic rest" knowing the bleeding only occurs after sex. I'm glad your baby is doing well. ↑
have you been tested for STDs? spotting/bleeding after sex or the day after is a common symptom of chlamydia. not to worry you but it is something to think about & the sooner you take care of it (if that is what is wrong) the less risk to your baby. ↑
mommylovesyou: actually it's more common after sex than it is common to be an std. don't scare her sheesh. considering it only happens after sex, i would say it's probably her cervix and she should stop the sex. if it continues, then let the doc know. ↑
