TMI alert........I am 14 weeks and really embarassed but hey I am going out of my nut here ondering if i have damaged baby or jeopradised my pregnancy.

I had nuchal scan last week and all fine but today slight bleed a fe hours after orgasm (no penetration).

I am going on a long haul flight on Thrsday so especially anxious and feel compelled to get another scan or something.

sounds like cervical errotion (sp?), its like a little graze on cervix, normally appears during pregnancy or while on the pill. Normally harmless but do get check to be sure.

I had light bleeding one day at 13 weeks (the week after I had my nuchal scan, which showed all well and baby healthy), lasted for a few hours. As I was very worried my doctor sent me to have another scan at 13 + 4 - said it was the only way that early on to check if all is well. Turned out that everything was fine, ultrasonographer said most likely some light cervical bleeding but couldn't find any specific reason for it. Have not had any more bleeing since, and am now 29 weeks. See if you can get another scan before you fly to check all is well. Good luck.

had a scan and all was okay then had a gynae look at my cervic, she said it was safe to do during pregnancy. still getting odd back pain and had some brown discharge just now.....could this be from the examination which was 24 hours ago.?

on a long haul flight on thursday do you think this is responsible. The Dr said ok to travel............
