Spotting after exercise??

Question

Hi all - just wanted to know if anyone has ever experienced light pink spotting after exercise? I’m about 5 weeks and I decided to go for a run and right when I got home I went to use the bathroom and noticed extremely light pink, mucus like discharge/ spotting. I’ve been having some very mild cramping on and off throughout the day but that’s been going on for at least two weeks. ￼This is my first pregnancy and I’m so fearful of every little thing.

Answer

When you’re pregnant your cervix is a lot more sensitive so you can spot with exercise and sex 
this is my fifth pregnancy but it will be my second baby and this is the only pregnancy that I spotted in. 
I spotted from 4 weeks to about 13 weeks on and off and Im going to be 19 weeks tomorrow 
I was told by both my midwife and the ER that as long as the spotting is either brown or pink and never gets bright red and your filling a pad an hour you will be okay, they just advised me to take it easy with spotting (I am high risk with my pregnancy so that may have been just something they wanted me to do)￼￼
I would just watch it but also give your doctor a call just so they are aware of what’s going on

Answer

Edit : I also had something similar early in the pregnancy (right around the time I found out about 2 weeks ago) and after going to the doctor I found out I had a UTI plus a yeast infection at that time. Could it be irritation of some sort?
