Bleeding from the cloaca during shed?

I caught Vespa in the middle of a really messed up shed. So I did the usual, put her in with some damp paper towels and it came off really easily after that, but there's two dots of blood from where the skin came off the cloaca.

She looks absolutely fine now, but when I first picked her up to inspect it, her cloaca kind of pulsed, and there was some clear discharge with a little more blood.

Is this something that can happen normally, or should I be worried about something?
 
It does happen every now and then. I've only noticed it once or twice.
If there was a lot, I would start worrying, but if it was only a couple of spots, it's not too bad.
 
Thanks. I didn't think much of when she looked fine after I went in search of the camera and failed to find it, but I figured better safe than sorry.
