still having brown discharge

I finally thought it was over and i was starting to get excited agin because the only brown i had on thurs was in the am and then again friday am (fmu) but then friday afternoon i started having lots of brown discharge again. I can't wait another 1 1/2 week to see my Dr and 3 weeks till the u/s, so i'm gonna call on monday and ask to get in tues or wed. I've been reading that brown may mean the baby has died and i won't have a natural miscarriage, but its also kinda smelly (tmi) so maybe i have an infection??? God this is hell

Hmmmm Well it could be an infection.... does it smell kinda fishy? Do you notice a smell after or during sex? (sorry if to personal) if so.... it sounds like you could have bacterial vaginosis....this can cause a bit of cramping too.... I would def call your dr and let him know about the smell....it could be easily fixed! Good Luck

Sorry to hear that it has started again... you might have an infection though.  I would go to the ER and they will be able to tell you right away what is happening.  When I had my second, they did an ultrasound and blood work.  About an hour later I knew what was going to happen.  Waiting another week and half to see your doctor is crazy... again, so sorry to hear that the brown spotting started back up.

Just so you know, when I miscarried, after a day or two of brown discharge, I had heavy red blood like your period.  Did you have any camping at all, heavy cramping?  I would go to the ER, they will do an ultrasound right away then you know.  Best wishes and keep us posted!

I don't know...it could be an infection. Hopefully it is nothing more serious but I would definitely go to the dr asap. :( I looked in my pregnancy book to see if there was anything  about your symptoms but I can't find anything that fits you exactly.

I read that it could be a miscarriage if your symptoms went away. Did they?? I would go to the ER if you are worried. I am sure your insurance would cover it right?
