Brown discharge?

Ellysmum91Ellysmum91 member
in March 2016 Moms
I've been experiencing some brown discharge on my panty liner every day for the past week I'd say, as well as VERY slight brownish hue when I wipe sometimes --- is this normal? My midwife told me not to worry about miscarriage unless you get bright red blood, but when I have this discharge and no cramps or anything else, I am a little concerned.

Thanks :)

    You will see a rainbow of colors throughout your pregnancy - brown is one of them.  Try not to worry :)

    I would still call and discuss it with your MW. I'm sorry but I don't agree that it's always normal, and I'm speaking from experience.

    I've had a lot of brown spotting last week along with cramping and then some pink spotting, and I did have some concerns, so I spoke with my doctor.  They checked and all was well.  Discharge during pregnancy can run the gambit, for sure.

    Call your doctor for sure. I had it for a week and sadly ended in miscarriage. It can be normal!!! But go to your OB for sure

    I had a miscarriage last month, but my body didn't recognize it. I had a stillborn before that, and then another miscarriage that passed on its own before that. I'm hoping that there is still a baby, and I'm going in on Wednesday. Hopefully all is well, but I'll send my midwife a message. Thanks ladies.

    Keep us updated! I have been having a lot of brown discharge today, trying to stay calm and trying to make an appointment with my OBGYN on Monday to find out what's up... Praying for you!

    Going into the doctor on Wednesday to see how things are going. I'm only about 7 weeks along, and it's still happening on and off. But my midwife said not to worry, it's normal for this stage. Praying for a heartbeat on Wednesday!

    I had it for weeks straight, it's finally subsiding ! I'm 8 weeks 2 days now, but I had to wear panty liners every day and every night !! My doc said don't worry unless it's a bunch of red blood with crazy cramps! And I've seen heartbeat twice :)

    Personally, I would contact a Dr/midwife. I suffered a miscarriage last October and my only symptom was brown spotting. I had very mild cramps and no heavy bleeding whatsoever. Obviously, brown discharge does not mean the worst in every case but it's something I would get checked if you are concerned.xx

    I've read a lot about this throughout other boards as well, and it seems that everybody has a different experience with it. Sometimes it can be normal to have spotting or brown discharge, especially if you just went in for your first prenatal exam and had a pap smear. Ultimately, if you're really concerned, I would call your doctor. He/she would be the best person to help you out with this one! Good luck!!

    I am so relieved:) we saw our baby with 1.7cm and heard the heart beat 145 :) 7w2d! And everything is fine our doc said, don't worry but just take it easy don't walk too much and spend time outside of the home she said. I am so happy now but will rest for the couple of weeks.
