Hello dear
Understand your concern
Spotting after morning after pill does not suggest pregnancy.
Spotting after morning after pill is breakthrough bleeding due to progesterone withdrawal effect.
It will disappear in 3-4 days.
Your period will be delayed due to hormonal imbalance/high progesterone as you took two morning after pill in one month.
Period will be delayed by 7-10 days. Pregnancy chance is less as you did sex in safe period of your cycle. So your period will come in 7-10 days.
Hope this will help you
Best regards
