Bleeding after your first time is perfectly normal!  In fact, expect it at least the next 1-2 times.  Too many times more, and you may want to get checked out, but the first 2-3 total, it's nothing to worry about.

Now, if this bleeding gets heavier rather than getting lighter as the days go on, I'd also go get checked out.
