hello, almost a month ago i lost my baby at 5 months pregnant due to trisomy13. I had a d&e done  and shortly after i stopped bleeding i got a brown discharge spotting here and there. About 1 week after the d&e i started taking birth controll pills and the brown discharge stopped, but when i miss 2 or more pills the brown spotting comes back. But when i get caught up on the pills it stops again. I was woundering if this is normal or should i be worried. thank you

I am so sorry for your loss!  It must have been devastating.

The spotting is normal.  It's what happens when your coverage on the pill gets thin, called breakthrough bleeding.  Try not to miss pills ... sketchy coverage means less (or no) protection.  When you want to get pregnant again, just get off them entirely.  Good luck!
