Good evening ladies,
I can totally understand your concern about your safe pregnancy, and a healthy child. It is beyond the bearable levels of pain if one has to go through a miscarriage, and i wish no mother has ever face the same. Although it is a scary process, but if you stress uourself sick it is only going to harm both you and your baby. So to keep your anxiety in check understand that a few symptoms are very normal during a pregnancy. Just like nausea, sleepless ness, morning sickness, swelling, excessive urination all comes in a wholesome package of pregnancy, so does bleeding. And in this, only the brown bleeding is normal during early pregnancy which occurs due to sudden expansion in the womb area that leads to breakage of a few blood vessels around our abdomen. So thd brown colored bleeding is totally normal and you must stop worrying about that. However, stay aware for any excessive or real bleeding or spotting. You might want to contact yout gp in that casw. Stay aware.

Definitely get that checked out asap. When blood turns to coffee grains like that it's been curdled by acid so is likely coming from your kidneys or bladder rather than your urethra (from experience a bleeding urethra causes a strong pink tint to the urine). I hope it's not too serious, good luck.

You should get checked out. Could be some type of infection. I know some spotting early on is normal and that brown blood is old blood but if it happens when peeing then definitely get checked out
