    Okay, first relax.

    Spotting can be normal during pregnancy. It is best to contact your doctor in the morning.

    Now that you are pregnant, you need to make sure to lubricate during sex or masturbation. As it was described to me, everything "down there" is swollen. It isn't like before. So, you need to lubricate, lubricate, lubricate.

    This happened to me. They (the dr.s) told me it was due to sex and that during said sex, a blood vessel was broken. And that caused the bleeding. My husband and I were put on restriction until I completed my first trimester.
    My daughter is now 8 years old.

    Relax and breath and good luck.

    This has happen to me too and my doctor advise me not to have sex for a week. But as always you can always consult your doctor.

    I would recommend what one of my girlfriends called "Full Pelvic Rest" until your doctor gives you the all clear. There is almost certainly nothing wrong, but for your peace of mind, it wouldn't hurt.

    I second the suggestion for lubrication. I know that I was extremely dry during my pregnancy. Add that to all the swelling and it's natural that there could be some internal irritation.
