Q: Very Stressed Out!!!

Ok, i'm four months pregnant as of friday, on saturday, my fiance and I were having sex, and after I started to spot, not a red blood, but a pinkish blood, I went to the hospital, they did a test on the baby's heartbeat and said everything was ok, but i'm still worried that something could be wrong. Has this happened to anyone before??? This is the first time i've spotted since I became pregnant. I'm also getting some cramping, not severe cramps but it's uncomfortable. Any advise anyone?

Spotting after sex is very normal. Cramping is too. Almost everything is normal in pregnancy. Don't stress out, it's not good for you or the baby.

I had spotting after sex. It wasn't enough to make me call the doc or go the er, but I did ask friends about it. It's normal. Your cervix is softer, more sensitive and easily irritated. I wasn't put on pelvic rest. It would be hard to abstain for so long plus 6 weeks after baby comes...Damn. Lol

Thanks guys, I feel a lot better, I just can't wait till I start feeling the baby move, then my mind will be at rest. It's so hard right now cause you can't feel what the baby is doing....
