Is it normal to bleed after a sweep?

That's it really?! First sweep today and now bleeding a bit.

Yep pretty normal. I bled lightly after first sweep and had what I now know to be early contractions. Had second sweep 48 hrs later and was in labour within 3 hours of that. If bleeding gets very heavy then call your midwife, otherwise fingers crossed your LO is on the way!

Yes - completely normal - I bled lightly for a day or so - and started getting some mucus/show pretty much straight away.
