Bleeding after sex (Pics attached) Sorry if TMI.

Hi, I'm 10 weeks tomorrow. My husband and I decided to have sex for the first time since finding out I was pregnant (about 6 weeks ago). We didn't use protection as we have had our STI MOT done and all is clear. I wouldn't say it was rough sex, but my husband did end up ejaculating inside me. When I went to the toilet I didn't notice any bleeding in the toilet bowel or on the tissue, neither did my husband when cleaning himself up. When I went to the toilet several times after this, every single time there was no blood. However I did notice a small amount of blood in my PJ bottoms that is new, and can only assume it's from sex. I've added picture to see, please ignore the hole in them they split in the tumble dryer. Anyways my sister says I should call 111 but I highly doubt there is much they can do? Is this enough blood to be worried, should I bother my doctor or midwife? Has anyone else had anything similar? Any advice would be appreciated, I am first time mum so it doesn't take much to worry me.

I ran to A&E when I first bled, I was 4 weeks and it was after sex. They sent me for bloods and all was fine, it did keep happening and Iv ended up with loads of scans, it hasn’t happened for 4 weeks now and I’m almost 13 weeks and all is still well. Personally I would have it checked out, maybe call your MAU? Mine says I can call anytime with bleeding or pains

If you haven't noticed any other bleeding then I would say you've irritated a very sensitive cervix. If you notice more blood, definitely go to EPU or GP.

Thanks I may call my out of hours doctor tomorrow or the emergency midwife line like you said. I will try and avoid A&E if I can because of this whole winter crisis thing. My mother in law was up there last week waiting 7 hours! I always feel like I am bothering people though, I saw the emergency pregnancy team about 4 weeks ago due to a mess up with my dates and all was fine (apart from going from 10 and a half weeks back to 6!). Just hoping they won't be mad if I have to go back for any reason. Sigh. Thanks for your reply though!

At ten weeks there is nothing they can do except monitor, so I wouldn't bother with A and E personally, but all means call the midwife line.

All the doctors and Midwife will say is wait it out and see if the bleeding continues or gets worse and at 10 weeks if you are miscarrying there is nothing that can be done to save the pregnancy. It might stop and you will be fine it's really just a waiting game. X

as others have said it’s more than likely the sex has irritated your cervix. I had this a few times in early pregnancy. Try not to worry (easier said than done) I’m sure baby is safe and sound in his bubble. Hubby would be going some to reach all the way up there and do any damage.
Put a pad on and keep an eye on things. If it gets heavy and starts to fill the pad then call up the epu x
