Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Bleeding or spotting or brown discharge at seventh months of pregnancy can be because of some retroplacental hematoma or any local lesions in the vaginal area or cervix.
I would suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist to get properly examined, investigated including ultrasound and get appropriate treatment.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
