The : The concern is how fast the bleeding stops. A small amount of bleeding is of no concern. Generally, pressure is the way to stop bleeding. The donor site on the roof of the mouth will not be harmed by pressure, if the recipient site is the issue, don't touch it without talking to your dentist.

I : I would not be too concerned with a little bit of bleeding. It is possible that the stitches pulled a little and caused some minor bleeding. Unless you get new significant bleeding you are probably healing uneventfully.
