spotting after intercourse

I'm 5wks4days today and my husband and I had intercourse which caused some light pink blood afterwards. Is this normal. Its our first pregnancy and we don't want anything bad to happen that could have been prevented. Also, what is the safest position at this point?

If anything bumps your cervix you can spot because the increased blood flow. I'm 18 weeks and had very light pink spotting after my husband used his fingers (sorry if that's tmi). Its common and notice to worry about.

Well I was told it is normal because sperm is a irritant to the uterus! I was also tld that is possible for women to spot thru out their first trimester! And what ever position is comfortable to u is the best position to do it in.
