I know the cervix is really sensitive when you're pregnant.. Stress, sex, lots of different things can cause it.
I would call your ob just in case?

Go ahead and call your OB. I'm 30 weeks and have had plenty of spotting through out my whole pregnancy. It has never been anything more than just my sensitive cervix. But your doc will always want to know about any bleeding in the second or third trimester just to be safe.

I'd call your doctor. I think any spotting past your 1st trimester warrants a phone call.

I had minor spotting that was pink as well. It was at about 17 weeks. Happened about every 2 - 3 days for around 2 weeks. It was pink at first, and towards the end of the two weeks, on one day it was actually red. Then on the last day of it, I passed a very small clot and all the spotting stopped. I had called my midwives when it happened more than once and they sent me for an ultrasound. I ended up having two ultrasounds over the two weeks and both showed no issues whatsoever and it was no problem at all.

My suggestion is if you are worried, that's reason enough to call your doc. and get an ultrasound. There is nothing better than peace of mind. If it makes you feel better, know that my spotting was absolutely nothing bad at all. It seems spotting can often be totally unexplained and just one of those things that happens sometimes.

No reason to stress but I've had it as well!

Yikes, that's scary! I think some spotting is really common, though--they ask me about it every time I go in for an appointment. As long as it's not heavy like a period, the odds are in your favor that's it's nothing to worry about!

Just wanted to send positive thoughts your way (I remember your struggles from the WB days . . .). I'm sure everything is fine, and if the nurse isn't concerned, I wouldn't be either (easier said than done, I know!).

I just wanted to say I know what you mean about the 24-week point! I'm 20 weeks today and it takes everything I have to not pull my hair out waiting for viability.

Are you sure the spotting was not from the BM? Probably a silly question since I'm sure you double-check wiped the vaginal rather than back area, but I've noticed some pink spotting when I have a BM lately but I think I have mild hemorrhoids because even though I'll have some on the paper when I first wipe front to back, there's never anything there when I wipe just the vaginal area to double check. And I've had some issues "finishing" my BMs so I'm sure that the straining has been creating some issues back there.

I haven't had any experience with this but like previous posters, I would just call your OB for peace of mind.
