What Causes Vaginal Spotting Before Period?

Hi I had my baby in July last year 2014. I ve had signs of my period coming on such as mood swings cravings and bloating. My period came this morning but it s not flowing it is bright red. Is this considered a period? It s bright red And it does come out but its not heavy at all or medium ... I m very confused. Can a period only last a day or 2? I need an answer asap thank you

Hello,

Minimal bleeding during the first day of the period is completely normal. You will experience the normal amount of bleeding in the subsequent days. If not, take a home pregnancy test.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Lekshmi Rita Venugopal, General & Family Physician
