Hello!

Is the bllod bright red? Or is it darker? A darker colour indicates old blood and really should be checked out by a docto. However, bright red blood means fresh blood which could be caused by a hemmoroid which is common in pregnancy due to constipation and the weight of the baby.

If it continues then I'd get yourself looked at by your doctor, just to make sure there's nothing that needs treatment.
