37 weeks

Sorry if too much information but I've had to wear a pad during the last weeks of pregnancy due to urinary incontinence. I've noticed the last couple of days there's a brownish tinge on my pad, I don't have any discharge and haven't had discharge in almost 7 months.

I've already had two children but 16 years ago, I had discharge back then but I just don't have it anymore now.

Would the colour on the pad have anything to do with labor being near?
