It may be from straining in the bathroom if you have been constipated. I've had it with both pregnancies- at the end of my first trimester and at the beginning of my second. I've also had it from sex in my first trimester but that was more of a bright red. The most recent time I had it it was orange/ brown for 2 weeks. GL

are u sure it was from your vagina. ? It could have been from your butt ..not to be nasty or anything .but u said you seen it in the toilet right?

Thanks ladies. We hadn't had sex recently so we're still unsure what caused it, but it seems to have stopped now and can still feel baby as much as normal, so feeling better now.

If you've had sex recently that can cause it...

Guessing you should be ok with what they advised...like they were saying, if it's brown, it's usually old blood

I had it in my first trimester I had it for a couple weeks on and off they said not to be to worried unless you start cramping and while its happening to just rest and keep your feet propped up
