It could be a number of things. Women have spotting between periods after coming off of the Depo shot pretty often. Or some women spot mid-cycle because they are ovulating. It's also possible to spot when you are pregnant. If you are sexually active, you might want to take a test in a couple of weeks. Other than that, call your gyno and ask to speak with a nurse who will probably set your mind at ease.

Brown spotting is just old blood and is very common. Unless it is heavy or last more than a few days, I wouldn't worry to much.

is it possible to spot after just recently concieving?? Like when it "catches"?? (sperm and egg meet)
OR I know there's only a certain time to get pregnant (usually) but if the egg is "down there" and finds the sperm? OR the sperm live for what is it, 5 days inside before dying off and then the egg meets them? I'm sorry about the wierd questions, but i'm just curious

Spotting can occur when it attaches.....light pink or red. It would not be brown.
