Question:
So, at age 21 I went and lost my virginity. After we got past the hymen bit (which was moderately awful, but he was patient with my obnoxiously stubborn cherry and its unwillingness to just *break* already), everything was just swell. We slept for about three hours, then woke up and tried it again, and things went much smoother all around the second time.

Except that I'm still bleeding. Is this normal, with difficult cherries? I'm feeling a little saddle-sore, but otherwise fine, but here I am, 12 hours after the fact, and just spotting a bit. I don't feel like I should be concerned, but I'd rather know than wonder. Thanks!

You can have bleeding for several days, nothing to worry about.
