Q: Spotting Again, After a Pap
asked by: mayhi on November 30th, 2006

Hi girls,

well I am spotting again today. No cramping just feeling gross. My doctor gave me a pap test yesterday and I am wondering if maybe that is what is causing the spotting today. Has anyone else ever had that happen from a pap test during pregnancy?

I am still very nauseated and my poor boobs are on fire so I am still having lots of symptoms of pregnancy. Just with the spotting again for the 3rd time, I am getting worried.

Any thoughts would be great.

Mary

I would call your doc just to be 100% positive.

I did spot after I had a pap. Your insides are tender and more likely to bleed now, at least for a while. I also bled after having sex.

Good luck!

I spot after any type of examination that I have, and have done that since about the 24th week or so... I also spot after sex as well.

But to be on the safe side, I would atlease contact your doctor, it also gives him a heads up with what your body is goin through as well..

How far along as you?

Hi girls,

thanks for the info. My doctor does know that I am spotting. She isnt very worried about it for now as its very light.

The last time that I had sex with my hubby I had spotting and sex hurt so bad that I had to get him to stop.

I am only 8 weeks along, so this pregnancy is very new. It is also my first.

Take care,

mary

Sorry you're spotting, it's pretty normal after a pelvic. If it worsens contact your doc. Congrats on your pregnancy!!

I dont' know how long you've been married or how long you've been in sexual relationships, but when I first got married and started having sex, I bled some too. I still do every once in a while, and especially after paps.

During your pregnancy though, i'd let your doctor know everytime it happens, just to be on the safe side.

Hey girls,

i have been married for over a year. Also been with my hubby for over 4 yrs now, and never had bleeding from sex. Just since I got pregnant, it hurts. I wont have to worry about that till he comes home in may anyways as he is now in alberta working till the end of may so that he can be home with me the last weeks of the pregnancy and be home for a bit when the baby comes.


The bleeding is totally gone. I chop it up to the pap test. Its worrisome tho when it keeps happening.

My doctor put me on diclectin yesterday and what a wonderful little pill for the pregnant ladies. It was soooo nice to not be nauseated this morning when I got up, however it makes me exhausted and on top of the cold I have I am already beat. I fell asleep on the way home from work this morning was the scarriest thing that ever happened to me. I just remember my foot hitting the gas pettal and the van shooting forward and me waking up and slamming on the brakes. It was like 2 seconds before my apartment too. So I was able to come straight in and go to bed to sleep. Still scary tho.

Take care!

Hi Ladies,
I had a pap a few days ago and about two days later i had a light pink discharge, it lasted for about two days. I am also trying to get pregnant and i am wondering if the spotting could be from the pap or implantation spotting? Do they look the same?
