Hallow Dear,

This symptom of green stools with mucous discharge is highly suggestive of amoebic dysentery. You may get stools examined from the laboratory; else you may start treatment for amoebiasis. Metronidazole is the medicine of choice for this condition; however, considering 13 weeks pregnancy, you may opt for secnidazole instead of Metronidazole.

In addition, please avoid spicy food, have plenty of fresh home made yogurt (curds). Avoid any food from outside, drink boiled and cooled water. hygienic practices of eating are most important.

Please report to your Obstetrician before you start any medicine since you are just 13 weeks pregnant.

I hope this helps you.
