Spotting before and after period

I hope someone here can advise me. I am new here so first of all hello!
   I am trying to conceive after having a child in 2003. I have mc'd three times the last was in Sept 2006. My periods have always been a regular 28 day cycle lasting five days until my last mc. Since then they have varied from 26-31 days but still bleeding for five days only. I have been charting temps since Jan with no success and stopped this month to give myself a break from the pressure of ttc. Last month my luteal phase was 10 days instead of the usual 12 and for three days before my period began I was spotting very lightly.(I hoped it was implantation) I then had my period like normal and after the five days I thought it had stopped only for it to start again after a day...spotting very lightly. Excuse the tmi.....It varies from brown creamy discharge, thick dark brown stringy mucus to clear discharge streaked with red...sometimes it is pink. It stops then goes again. I am currently on cd11 and still spotting. First spotting was 14 days ago. I am very scared. This has never happened to me before. Please can anyone advise?

Hi, can u tell me what was the result of the problem that you had? I'm having the same problems as you did. My husband and I have been trying for the last 6 months to have a baby.... My period finished a few days ago, but I'm currently having spotting, which I also had a week before I'd gotten my period.  I'm a bit scared...
