I am 25 and had a couple little brown mucas spots on the tissue when I wipe. I am not on birth control, and am married. My period doesn't start for about 7 days still. My stomach is hard and just got bigger within the past week. I feel sick to my stomach. Could I be pregnant or is something else?

Hey check this out Brown Discharge few days before expected period?? - HealthBoards Bulletin Board hopefully you can rest assured.

Don't be worried, brown discharge is a perfectly normal thing for the body. It's the body's natural preparation for the period, and the stomach thing could very easily be normal PMS symptoms and bloating.

Brown discharge however often occurs during pregnancy as a replacement to the period, it's mostly just old vaginal lining (old "blood" is brown) being let go. If you think you're pregnant, get checked out!
