Hi dear, I have read your question and fully empathise with your concerns.

No bleeding during any stage of pregnancy Should be ignored nor should be taken lightly, particularly if it is brown bleeding, irrespective of the amount of bleeding.

Red bleeding denotes fresh bleeding while brown bleeding is suggestive of old, stale bleeding. You had brown bleeding suggesting that the bleeding was present at the source for some time and now it is coming out. This bleeding can be from within the uterus, from the mouth of the uterus or from vagina. Usually the bleeding from mouth of the uterus (cervix) or vagina does not remain inside and comes out fresh. Brown bleeding is more likely to be from within the uterus. it is likely that some part of chorio-placental tissue was disturbed and had some bleeding which now has come out.

Please report to your Obstetrician. It is most likely that now the separation of the tissue and thus bleeding has stopped and your baby is safe; however, let the Obstetrician confirm it.

I hope you have got proper guidance.
