    if you are it could be breakthrough bleeding...if not then I think you should see your doctor as that just aint whats meant to be happening!

    and I'm also having alot of pain in the lower right of my abdomen.
    I also had a baby 5 months ago, that might have something to do with this.

    It could be a progesterone, estrogen imbalance. Are your breastfeeding a baby, or could you possibly be pregnant?

    no I'm not pregnant, but I'm still having pain and bleeding, and it will stop for a few days then we'll have sex and I'll start bleeding again, my doctors appointment is on thursday, hopefully it's nothing too serious....

    After I had my last baby, I kept on bleeding on and off for almost 6 months and had sharp pains in my abdomen. I went to my midwife and she found out that I had a mild postpartum infection. I RARELY take antibiotics, but I broke down and took them for two weeks, I felt that the pros outweighed the cons at the time! The pain was gone the next day and the bleeding stopped within a week. I just made sure I drank lots of Kefir which has 10 different live cultures in it. It seemed to help restore all the good flora in my body. (My midwife recommended regular live cultures in pill form, but said to get the refrigerated kind instead of the kind right off the shelf.)

    I just thought it might be something you could bring up. Hope you get to feeling better!

    It is great that you are going to the doctor...be sure to let s know what they say as I think all info is so useful for people...it does sound that it might be like a little bit like what Merri was saying though so take care of yourself and lotsa luck!
