Yes, it's normal. After an internal exam, sex, vaginal U/S, anything that pokes your cervix has the potential for bleeding/spotting. After my first internal this pregnancy I bled quite a bit, bright red. Your cervix is sensitive right now. BUT if it turns into a bright red flow, that's when you should be checked. Otherwise it's normal, so are cramps after an orgasm.

Bright red blood should always be checked just to be on safe side.

Its normal!

I talked with an actual nurse after it happened with me. She said its very normal, as long as you arent filling a pad, or getting severe abdominal pains. Its very common right after sex, or even the day after. Its because of the increased blood flow to that area.

As long as its clearing up pretty quickly, youre fine. If you have any doubts call the nurses and ask. Some people are alarmists, nurses are not.

Thats not normal honey. I would certainly be seeking some medical advice asap! Especially if there is pain associated with it. Good luck.
