39 weeks and brown/red spotting

I'm kinda worried, my due date is 9th September and I have six days to go, my baby is moving perfectly fine and not having pains just pressure down below and I have red/brown spotting on my knickers, does anyone know what this means? Or what I should do? Thank you.

Its called bloody show it happens when you lose your mucus plug.  It means labor is coming but no real time frame Could be hrs could be days but either way its your body getting ready tohave the baby :) its almost time!

I believe thats perfectly normal. Means you're delivering soon :) But if still uneasy about the situation just call your doctor.
