What Does Brown Discharge During Bowels During Pregnancy Indicate?
I am seven weeks pregnant. I have noticed an increase in brown discharge when I have bowel movements. I don't have any pain but the amount has increased and the color has darkened. I have already had an ultrasound and the doctor said it was great. We even saw the heartbeat. Before, when I wiped, the toilet paper would have a slight brown color but now the discharge streams from me and when I wipe, it is dark and there are little specks in it. It has a slight smell but nothing alarming.

dear.if ur USG is fine then no need to worry.brown dischage may be some old collected blood.but if u feel some fresh blood then run to doc and take medicine to prevent it as it may cause threatened abortion.u may start progesterone supplement twice daily if u feel fresh blood.this will help u to retain ur pregnancy.
