brown blood can mean so much..

it can be normal, it can be something serious like previously stated, and in my case I bled dark brown blood twice.. the first time I was 9w4d, my fiancé ran me to the ER, and I found out I had a Subchorionic Hemorrhage - they say it's very common, a lot of women have them, and my body would just absorb it or I'd bleed out. I didn't see dark brown blood again until about a week later.

I'm 13w4d now, and I've not seen blood since then. I go to the doctor Thursday and I'm hoping that it's gone for good!! (((:

my point is, never assume anything. what's "normal" may be okay for 1,000 other women using this app, but your situation can be completely different.. just as mine was, along with @rebecaann11. I'm not saying expect the worst either, but don't just never rely on other people's experiences.

never feel like you're bugging your OB, that's what they're there for. I'll call my OB's office all day long if I want to!!!! lol good luck!!! (((:

What is a molar pregnancy?

A molar pregnancy is a rare condition, which happens when there is a problem with fertilisation. Usually, an embryo gets half its genetic material (chromosomes) from the mother's egg and half from the father's sperm. In a molar pregnancy, the wrong combination of chromosomes comes together. Sadly, this means the pregnancy can't continue and a baby can't develop.

Yes it's normal. Brown discharge is old implantation bleeding most likely. If you're real worried call your ob, but it's very common in a lot of women. Bright red blood is what you would need to worry about.
