Last month I had my period on the 13th. This month I had it four days earlier, on the afternoon of 9th. Normally, having a period during the afternoon will give me heavier bleeding in the night and for sure, on the second day. However, on the 9th, the bleeding was very little and I was totally clean throughout the whole night until early morning of 10th. At around 10am in the morning on the second day, I saw some brownish discharge and blood but it lasted only for a while. I was then clean again after that and continuous for the next three days. Yesterday I saw very light and little discharge and later was clean again. Now I saw more discharge compared to yesterday. I have been trying to get pregnant. I’ve done a test this morning (15th) but the test result wasn’t clear for me. Last year, I had miscarriage twice at 9 wks and 11 wks each. Could this time be my period or could I be pregnant? All this while, my period came on time and lasted for about 5-6 days. This is my first time having such problem. I’m worried. If I’m not pregnant, what’s wrong with my menses? If I’m pregnant, why am I bleeding at such an earlier stage?
