Hi I recently found out im pregnant roughly 5 weeks. Last night after sex I went to the toilet and noticed a slight pink mark on the toilet roll after I had been. I've getting up this morning and I'm bleeding, just a little lighter than a normal period little clots about half the size of a grain of rice. (Sorry if its tmi) have i lost the baby. I have 4 children and I've never had a miscarriage I dont know whats happening and don't know what to do about it. I'm not in any pain just slight headache and normal hip pain I always get. Any advice would be appreciated

I think bleeding after sex can be quite common in early pregnancy. Something to do with the cervix being more sensitive and therefore easily bleeds xx

Heyy, almost the exact thing happened to me last night Friday the 13th. It slowly started at brownish discharge and progressed to red blood. The amount is like on my period with small rice grain sized clots, I don’t really have cramps or pain it just feels more like discomfort. I have a scan on Monday but until then I’m worried if I’m miscarrying, this is my first pregnancy. I am 6 weeks and 5 days.

I’m 10 weeks pregnant, started spotting on Saturday afternoon with it being a pinkish colour. Then gradually started getting heavier, I passed a clot which was fairly big then tiny ones after that, just looked like blood clots no tissue? I went to a and e as it was a bank holiday they took my bloods said my hcg levels are still really high got a scan in the early pregnancy department tomorrow. Still bleeding a little but no cramps. Bleeding is worse when I wake up in the morning or occasionally when I stand up. The blood is bright red, am I miscarrying? I’ve heard of a sub chronic hematoma. Midwife said it could be a ‘hiding twin’ as my levels are so high. Any information anyone can tell me please, my cervix is closed and they felt my stomach apparently it feels okay, I’m so scared that I’m going to have my scan tomorrow and they are going to say there is no heartbeat.

It's a good sign that your cervix is closed. But unfortunately nobody can tell you if you are or not ❤️ Fingers crossed for you

I had this.

My cervix was closed and I started bleeding - first a wipe and then a little heavier and it gradually got worse and was only confirmed 2 weeks later at my 12 week scan that I'd had a MMC. I too had never had an MC before - just two healthy DC.

I've read ALOT of people bleeding after sex/early pregnancy though.

Sending you love x
