hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion as you have reached 40 wks there might be prelabour changes and meanwhile the labour might start.The brown discharge might be from cervix. If your placenta is not low lying then you need not worry.The bleeding might be labour related.I suggest you to get a check up done to rule out the status of cervix by your consultant.As long as you have good fetal movements you need not worry.
