hi everyone- i took the ept today- it had two in the package and it said positive. then i took the second one 1 hour later (i tried to be patient but it didnt work) and it said positive. then to celebrate, my husband and i made love a few hours later- and right after i started spotting. it was darker than i would have felt normal about. so now i'm confused...and nervous i may have hurt myself. any advice? thanks in advance!

It's common to have some pink or reddish bleeding after sex. I think it has something to do with the increase in the blood vessels on the cervix. When I was pg with my DS, I had bleeding several times after sex. My midwife always assured me that it was normal! Congratulations on your pregnancy! And cudos to you for celebrating...
