Hi
Although some bleeding can continue for about 6 weeks of pregnancy but smelly discharge is not normal. You might be having some infection or there can be bits of placenta still inside. If you are having tummy ache and fever the possibly is more. You need to see a doctor who would do a vaginal swab and a ultrasound. Further treatment depends on the results.
Thanks
