Light Brown Discharge

Throughout this pregnancy, I have been experiencing cramping. About two days ago and today I have had light brown discharge. More like a light hue with yellowish. Has anyone experienced cramping AND this type of discharge? A heartbeat has been confirmed and baby is growing in my uterus.

HCG levels are good too 

Re: Light Brown Discharge

  • This post is a relief because st 6 weeks I've been experiencing the same thing, I have been told it is normal and nothing to worry about. Dating scan and bloodwork to follow this week.
    Congratulations on your progress so far mama!

  • Had something similar and was super concerned. This study was a gamechanger for me and gave me so much peace of mind. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2828396/
  • Same with me! My doctor says nothing to worry about just keep an eye if it gets red or heavier. He also told me no sex or heavy exercise until 2 weeks after it stops. He has me on baby aspirin so that could be contributing to it. I’m 8 weeks and had a great scan and blood work - I’ve been having the spotting off and on for about 3 weeks. 
  • Curious did you all experience mostly brown spotting or red? Mines light (don’t need an actual pad) but it’s red and very unnerving 
  • Mine was light brown. Have you asked a nurse or OB?
  • In my first pregnancy I did after my ultrasound and any “fun” activities. She carried to term :)
  • I’ve been having this too. It’s a tan light brown almost caramel color sometimes.  I have experienced miscarriage before and this is different than that. I had darker brown and red during that time so I’m not panicking as much. Hope that helps.
