i wrote that a week ago and i am still having light/sometimes normal bleeding. but not all day long just at random times in the day.  i have 4 days until it is time to take the red pills, and since i stared this pack ive had about one week of not bleeding, and that was the first week on the bc. i was just wondering if this is still considered the normal for break through bleeding on bc

Mid-cycle spotting while on birth control is not uncommon, and mostly depends on the hormone dose in the pill. If this doesn't resolve in a month or two, you should consult your doctor.
