What Causes Brownish Discharge During 38 Weeks Of Pregnancy?
Question: My daughter has had a brownish discharge the last few days she is 38 weeks pregnant but it's stopped now what does that mean and has she a bit of a show
Brief Answer:
She is near labour
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for your query.
Brown vaginal discharge(or mucoid corks ) is normal in this pregnancy age (38 weeks) because her baby is maturated and want to born.
Hence she will wait for abdominal pain or uterine contraction to start labour.
A bit of show means that she is near to labour .
All the best
