3 periods in one month?

I am 23 and since March 18, 2008 I have had 3 light periods.  I am confused!! I have an appt in one week with my OBGYN but I am being impatient.  My normal cycle is usually 7 days of menses with the first 2-3 days heavy.  This month I have had 3 very light periods lasting no more than 5 days with about 12 days in between.  Today is May 21 and I am on day 3 of my 3rd light period.  My last period was about two weeks ago but before that period I had a very light period about 10 days before.  I have never taken the pill and although I am sexually active with my fiance we use protection.  I have taken 5 pregnancy tests this past month with all of them being negative.  By light periods I mean that the first period I used very few tampons, the second period I used more than the first and it my menses was a bit heavier, and this current menses is sort of in between in terms of heavy/light.  Any advice???

your not pregnant.

bleeding and getting "3 periods in one month" is not a sign of pregnancy its a sign of something else.

your not pregnant because you two use protection (and you didnt mention condoms breaking) and you have been getting not only 1 period but multiple and your not getting postive pregnancy tests

your going to have to wait till you go to the doctors in a week.
