A member asked:
I am currently in week 5 of my pregnancy and i've experienced experienced some spotting when wiping. it was very light brown. is this normal?

Yes: What you are describing sounds like something that happens very commonly in pregnancy and is nothing to worry about. Some brownish discharge, especially if you only see it when wiping, is not concerning. If you start bleeding or having more discharge in your underwear, you should let your OB or midwife know.
