Is A Brownish Discharge Normal During Pregnancy?

Hello, and thank you for answering our questions. I am still breastfeeding my 7 and a half months baby, roughly around 5 times a day and 4 at night. This morning though, I woke up with a brownish discharge. My period didn t return and it s the first time it happens! Should I worry about it?

Hello dear thanks for trusting health care magic.
It is common to have such a discharge while lactating but still if you are not using any contraception then do a urine pregnancy test and if negative then switch to a regular method of contraception now.
