How To Remove Pregnancy Stretch Marks?
Hello, I am 18 years of age, I m 35 weeks pregnant with a little girl. This is my first pregnancy and well lately my pregnancy has been going very well, but since 2 days now I have been having skid marks in the middle of my underwear brown like poop but I cleaned right just like all the other days. And the makes are mostly up front not on back. What could it be? Please help. Thank you!

Thank you for using our service. I have read through your question and the brown skid marks are perfectly normal at the end of the pregnancy, preparing the cervix for delivery. This is what's called bloody show. I recommend drinking a lot of water to stay hydrated and avoid heavy efforts until you reach 36 weeks for a term baby. I hope my advice was helpful. Thank you. -Dr.JC
