During Pregnancy, Could Forced Bowel Movement Cause Anal Bleeding?

I am 28 weeks pregnant. I peed, wiped, and it was yellow/clear. Right after, I had a bowel movement, wiped my rear, which was fine, and then re-wiped my vaginal area at the end and there was blood. I had to push the stool but it wasn t like a constipated. Just pressure to push. The blood scared me. Is this normal??

Welcome

Bleeding you noticed can be from vagina or can be from anal area...

The cause of it must be saughtout..
Bleeding any time during pregnency is not good....


Avoid constipation by taking fruits, high fiber diet, and plenty of fluids...

Bowel movement is not the cause of bleeding from anus...

Take care of your baby movement...
Do regular antenatal visit regularly.
Thanks
