Is it normal to have brown discharge showing every other day around week 5 of pregnancy?

Answer 1

It could be a cervical change that can cause vaginal bleeding. Vaginal bleeding can also be a symptom of ectopic (tubal) pregnancy. Another cause for bleeding during pregnancy is a miscarriage although the first two reasons for bleeding are more common, it is still a good idea to contact your doctor if you are too concerned.

Answer 2

I was on holiday when i was in my 8th week of pregnancy when i started having a brown discharge which lasted 24 hrs, i was convinced i had lost the baby and had to wait another week until i arrived back in the UK for a scan where i was told everything was ok and had no explaination for bleeding.

Answer 3

Yes this is normal. If the discharge becomes red - see your doctor.

Answer 4

I have had the same thing and asked my doctor, he said that it is completely normal. If it turns pink or red and is accompanied by a lot of cramping, go and see your doctor.
