Brown discharge?

Last night I had light brown discharge only a small amount
I’ve then been asleep, been on a 5k walk, had an hour nap and it’s now 5pm. I’ve been to the toilet and just had a lot more dark brown discharge (the photo).
Anything I should be concerned about? I’m 7 weeks tomorrow

I had early scans and blood showing pregnancy is in the uterus, so it’s not an ectopic. Me and my partner haven’t had sex since we found out at 3.5 weeks, so I know it’s not from that.

Positive elective C section stories please.

Bit of background.
I had an tramatic emergency c section with my 1st (under general) resulting in a weeks stay in hospital.

Now..37wk with GD and they have brought me forward to deliver via elective next week due to him measuring over 8lb allready!

Can’t help but worry due to what me and baby went through with my 1st and also worried staying in hospital for a long time due to having a 3yr old at home.

So any positive stories to try put my mind at rest would be great!
Thanks x

Thoughts on our baby name🙏🏻

We love the name Roscoe, I first put it to my partner when we originally found out we were having a baby. I have loved the name for years from the song Roscoe by Midlake which is where I originally heard it. The song itself is so lovely, and having looked up its meaning, his name means ‘roe deer’ or ‘forest’ of an old Norse definition. Recently since telling a few friends and family we have had nothing but backlash which has now made me reconsider. People saying it’s a dogs name, although our dog is called Henry😆 and just generally disliking the name. Just wondering what people’s thoughts on the name are.

How did people feel leading up to labour?

Last time I was induced and ended up having a c section so I don’t know what it feel like leading up to water breaking/ labour. I’m 38 weeks pregnant baby dropped ages ago and today I woke up from a nap and instantly just started throwing up out of nowhere and diarrhoea. Last night I was getting allot of lower back pain and twinges in my groin area. I now pregnancy can be weird so not sure Norman just that or a sign it’s getting close.
