Hello,
During pregnancy, the cervix becomes more fragile because more vessels are concentrated there. Therefore, a slight bleeding can occur after a sexual intercourse or a gynecological examination. This is nothing to worry about.
However, if it becomes recurrent or if you have heavier bleeding that requires the use of a sanitary napkin, you should discuss it with your doctor.
The Naître&Grandir website is a good source of reference on this subject
