1st Trimester

Discolored mucus?

Hey guys, got a quick q for those of you who might know more than me. This morning I observed some discolored mucus when I wiped. It was lightly tinged brown. Is this something to be worried about? I'm seven weeks along. Should I even be seeing mucus, more or less tinted? Or am I freaking out over nothing?

Re: Discolored mucus?

  • Mine's always kind of sickly green color, I don't worry about it.  Brown wouldn't really worry me unless I felt uncomfortable down there (infection or something).  Mucus will come, and more of it than you ever thought possible.  Invest in some good pantiliners.

  • Thank you sooo much. I worry over every little thing now. :) I'm gonna check that one off my list for now!

  • Yeah, get ready for flood of discharge. It's seriously gross. And on that note, mine is usually a yellowish. Which makes it hard to distinguish if I have any sort of infection, unfortunately.

  • Brown usually means old blood. It's not really a problem as long as you're not experiencing any cramping. Just keep an eye on it.

    With my previous pregnancy I had a bit of brown mucous that turned into faint brown spotting from 4 weeks until 17 weeks. I had a subchronic hemorrhage. That sounds scary, but all was okay I just needed a little additional monitoring during my first trimester. Baby was born healthy at 39 weeks. Not trying to alarm you, but I would call your OB just in case they'd like you to come in.
