Has anyone experienced cramps and bleeding during pregnancy few hours after intercourse ? I am just over 8 weeks pregnant and I experienced it for the first time. Went to A&E, they sent me home and now I am waiting for a scan which is tomorrow

Hi there Sy12,
We're just pushing this one up the queue for you as it seems to have fallen down a little. Very best of luck for your scan today, and we hope you find good support here.

Hello,
How was your scan today?
It wasn't after sex, but I had cramps and bleeding at 6 weeks and all was fine - sometimes a small bruise can develop in your uterus and cause a little bleed, without harming the baby.

Hope the scan went well 🤞🏼 It could possibly be a SCH?
