Brief Answer:
Can be due to infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Thanks for trusting hcm about your health care.
I have gone through your history and understand your concerns.
As you are having fever with foul smelling brown color discharge it can be due to vaginal infection or PID.
First you should consult your Gynecologist and get your pelvic examination done.
Get your blood test to rule out infection and ultrasound scan for foetal well being.
After investigation you should take antibiotics which are safe during pregnancy.
Are you having any urinary symptoms?
Hope found useful, feel free to discuss more information.
Good luck.
Regards
