weird period..something wrong?

[4mel4]

How are things going? I do not know what my body is doing. I started spotting on the 20th then after 3 days seemed like my period was here ( not very heavy) and now I have been spotting for 3 days (noticeable when I wipe only),pinkish in color. This would be 10 dAys so far and still spotting
(Only noticeable when I wipe). Anyone ever experienced this? This has never happened before. Any thoughts., should I go see a doctor about this? I don't know what this could be.

I know af was on jan 20th and went through the 4th of feb. (thats 147 days) for the first half it i was just spotting and dark brown to very dark red. then it tapered off and seemed to start a regular af with the normal red color just slightly lighter flow. I have had for the past couple days now a kind of cramping (just slightly not pain) and twinges where my ovaries are. then today just a very slight spot of pink when i wiped. This i have never had before . all this i am finding is totally foreign to me. if af doesnt start as usual I will go see my doc. has anyone else had this? I know some people have odd bleeding etc. and it is normal but i have just not had this before. wondered if anyone else has experienced this as well and did they find out anything or was it normal. To everyone out there lots of luck and hope your having a great weekend!

so its kind of normal among us (those who r TTC). right? yes, my AF started on feb6th n' ends(almost) feb 11th. i never had 5 days AF. usually mine gets 3 or max 4. color, texture, amount, every is diff than b4.

I agree that ttc seems to mess up your periods. I started to get spotting and heavier periods once I started ttc. Really annoying!!!

I think something about TTC makes you have weird periods, random spotting, strange colors, etc.  Mine keeps coming earlier than usual and lighter and not lasting as long, for like 3 months in a row now.  Perhaps it's just because we're hyper aware of it.  I mean, 4mel4's story is something that one would have noticed before, but I think for a lot of us it's not so much that things are out of the ordinary, but more that we're paying extra attention.

I had a wierd period a couple months ago, very light and very long ( 10 days) And I ovulated on day 12, luckily I took an opk so we were ready!

[thefebygirl]

well, mine came as very light after couple hrs got heavy. then into medium. but one thing i noticed (comp to my period b4) is my blood contains very little clots, n' its dark red in color. and sticky(or thick). i dont know why its happning or is it abnormal? I thought i wasnt drinking enough water, but after i noticed like this i statrted to drink water alot (avoiding soda n' caffeine). does anyone expirience the period like this? plz share. Thankx :)

It started the same time af was sup to start and only one day was almost like my reg flow..the other days seemed to be light spotting turning to heavy spotting and back to spotting. Tomorrow will be day 10. I took an hpt when I was first spotting but it was negative. I have no pain except a couple days I felt like how I have read others feel when ovulation. If it happens again I will def ask my doc about it...or if the spotting does not stop. I hope it is just mid cycle spotting.  :)

One month recently I had spotting for half of the month, but it didn't start until right around the time of ovulation. It was really light like you are experiencing and didn't get heavier until right before af started. I asked my doctor about it and she said mid-cycle spotting can be for many reasons and it is real hard to say why it happens most of the time.

If your af was lighter are you sure it was your af and not more spotting? Have you taken an hpt? When I was pregnant with my son I spotted so much that I wasn't sure whether I had a light period or if I was pregnant.

If you are sure you are not pregnant and if you are really concerned about it you might want to see your doctor, or you might want to see if it happens again next cycle.
