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.
