Understanding Vaginal Discharge During Pregnancy: What to Expect

Question
I am 23 years old and am currently pregnant with my first child. My last menstrual period began on November 4th. I have experienced twice now a clear to whitish discharge with a slight bit of pinkish brown tint to it. Should I be worried? Thanks!  

Answer
As long as you do not have heavy bleeding with cramps, you probably are fine. It is common to occasionally have some pinkish discharge due to "old" blood being pushed out of the uterus by the growing fetus. If , however, there is copious amounts of blood and you start feeling menstrual-like cramping, call your doctor.
