Yes it is normal. I had pap last week and after I came home I had little brownish colored mucus. Good luck.

I agree...although a bit scary...it is normal to have spotting after an exam (pap), but if it continues or gets any worse then it doesn't hurt to call.

Good luck!

slight spotting is normal after a pap, and especially while pregnant as the blood vessels in your cervix can be more sensitive.

I think that is totally normal.  There is alot more blood flow down there right now, so the exam itself can cause some bleeding.  If it worsens or doesn't stop, i would call for sure.
