    Help
    Me and my boyfriend were having sex and I'm pregnant and he noticed that I started bleeding a little heavy but it stopped about 30 minutes later... What should I do ? Should I be worried about a m/c

    This is a question for your doctor. Call their office. If they are closed, they will have a doctor on call so call anyway and ask for a phone call back. They will let you know if it's a matter for concern or not. We can't responsibly answer this for you.

    What were you doing? Sex in the last 24 hours? Walking a lot? Lifting?

    Is there any cramping involved?

    Intercourse can cause bleeding during pregnancy as the cervix is highly vascular at this time in your life.

    For now, put yourself on pelvic rest and avoid sex until you see your OB.

    "Bleeding a little heavily"? How heavily? How long? Call your OB/GYN like, I think, everyone else said (I only just skimmed the responses). If it was light and brief and stopped, you are probably OK. I had a similar incident when I was pregnant involving a hot tub jet. I know, however, that it's of concern when it is actually "heavy" (you said it was but I don't know your personal definition of 'heavy') and more importantly, if it continues. Most likely, you probably just aggravated the area a bit. Sorry to repeat what everyone else probably said but call your doc. ;) GL

    User2013, it is important yo read the responses. If you had, you would note that an answer from an RN specializing in pregnancy and labor & delivery has responded appropriately.
