An odd thing is happening to me. I was 8 days late when my period finally started. My period is usually lighter on the first 2 days and then VERY heavy on third, forth and five... then light again for days 6 and 7.

Now the first two days of my period, I was barely spotting (no need for tampons even), third day, it was a bit heavier in the morning but later on, I didnt need a tampon for the rest of the day or night. Same yesterday and today, I bled for about 3 minutes while I went to the bathroom after shovelling snow for an hour.... and then no need for a tampon again. Is that normal?? My period has never been this way before.

I was really hoping I was pregnant but I took a HPT on the third late-day and it was negative...
