Brief Answer:
CAN SWITCH TO GEL INSTEAD OF VAGINAL TABLET

Detailed Answer:
Sometimes alongwith the normal secretions of the vagina and cervix, the tablet gets dissolved and gives a brownish tint.
However, inform this to your doctor who will examine you internally.
It is best to stop vaginal insertion of the medication and use Susten Gel or Crinone gel instead.
Also, do not insert the applicator too deep inside the vagina and avoid forceful insertion.
Take care.

Brief Answer:
RELAX, WONT HARM YOUR BABY AT ALL.

Detailed Answer:
Dont worry, as there is no more bleeding, it will not harm the baby at all.
Relax.
It is alright if you speak or meet your doctor on Monday, as long as you do not have fresh bleeding.
Avoid inserting the tablet till then.
Probably a nurse or the doctor should show you the correct method of insertion, when inserted correctly, it is done fairly easily and there is no problem as such.
Take care, do not worry, your baby is fine.
Just a few drops of discharge will not harm your child.
Take care.
