Ive gotten that at the beginning and the ending of my period, I thought the dark stuff meant it was old?

Ive never had this dark dark brown almost black spotting in my life. Only lighter brown stuff and it turned to right like in an hour.

Yeah that's normal I used to get that every once in a while. I think its just old blood before the new stuff comes out.

Thanks erin, hehe!
Its good to know I am not abnormal! How long does it take for your real period to come once you start spotting like this?

Depends, sometimes just a day, and sometimes my whole period was like that for 5 days straight.

Thanks erin, I feel like a 13 year old getting her first period asking these questions, I just never experienced bleeding like this before.
