8 weeks pregnant. bleeding after sex.?

I am actually 7wks 6 days pregnant. We had sex this afternoon. Now, like 3 hours later, I go to pee, wipe, and see brownish/red blood. I had a miscarriage earlier this year, so this really concerns me. I am scared to death. The plus side is that we saw the baby's heartbeat l;ast week. What do yall think???

    Bleeding after sex is pretty common because your cervix often becomes inflammed with pregnancy, making it more likely to bleed after sex or vaginal exams.

    Brown blood or small amounts of SPOTTING is USUALLY nothing to be concerned about, and in fact is common in pregnancy. Miscarriages after the heartbeat is detected, are very rare; however, if you start bleeding heavily or if the bleeding accompanies the cramps, this could indicate miscarriage.

    In either case, my recommendation is that you err on the side of caution and refrain from sex until you get the OK from your doc. Call in and let them know what is going on; they may ask you to come in so that they can examine you before giving you the OK to go ahead and resume sexual activity.

    Best of luck and have a happy and healthy pregnancy :)

    i know that posting on yahoo solutions you elect to work out others recommendations and opinons no longer in easy terms a gaggle of pass to the docs by way of fact of direction all of us realize it rather is finally what you like and could do. In my opinon i think it rather is tough intercourse. Alot of cases whilst women people have intercourse it rather is tough or has a tendency to be extra stable than what they're used to you may get swollen and bleed by way of fact the guy has hit your cervix inflicting the bleeding. The consistent friction from intercourse and particular no longer sufficient lubrication could reason the swelling. in many cases inspite of the undeniable fact that that is going away in an afternoon or so putting me to my next factor that possibly you have a mixed subject or some style of vaginal an infection it rather is inflicting you to stay swollen. don't have anymore intercourse for a pair days and spot if it is going down. jointly as in the bathe positioned a heat washcloth down there for a lil bit. Then if that doesnt exchange it guess what you may desire to do???!!!! I hate to declare it yet its time for prevalent practitioner prevalent practitioner !

    Your fine. Bleeding throughout pregnancy is actually considered normal as long as its reddish brown. If it's bright red that that's a problem. "Spotting" after sex is totally normal. I bled after sex until I was about 5 & 1/2 months pregnant.
