PeRiOd oR FLuKe?!
Question: Okay, okay, okay.
I know i've asked this question repeatedly but i've not gotten any answers after i've added my details. Probably just because most people look at the new open questions, anyways.
I haven't gotten my period, but i started bleeding very very lightly, barely noticeable for about four days, and it stopped about four days ago. I haven't gotten any sign, so could it be spotting? When should i expect my period, if it even was the start of that? and what if it doesn't start when i'm expected, fluke? ANSWER SERIOUSLY PLEASE :]

This sounds like it is your first period, though it may be spotting which occurs about 10 days before your real period. Your next period can be in the next month or maybe even a year away! But you should be prepared so start keeping some pads with you and a spair pair or undies. Congrats!

A Girl's First Period - Hurry Up Already!
It can be frustrating when it seems like you're the last one of your friends to get your period. The thing is, everybody's bodies develop at their own pace and it's highly unlikely that you and your best bud will start your periods at the exact same time. Things to look for that mean your period is on its way are underarm and pubic hair, breast growth and white, vaginal discharge. The average girl will get her first period around 12 years old, but this definitely varies from person to person. If you're ever concerned about your body's development, check in with your family doctor to see what they think!
A Girl's First Period - The Dreaded Day
While we never know exactly when our first period is going to come, we can make the experience a little less dramatic by making sure we are prepared. This means talking to your mom or other trusted adult about what you can expect before it actually happens. You should start carrying pads around with you in advance to getting your period so that when it finally arrives, you aren't scrambling to find some. If you find yourself stuck at school without a pad or tampon, go talk to your school nurse or counselor. They will be more than willing to help you out!
A Girl's First Period - A Regular Visit
When your first period finally arrives, don't be too worried if it doesn't stick around for long. It can sometimes take your body a few months or even a few years to get into a regular pattern. Periods usually come every 28 to 30 days and last for three to seven days. But, if it doesn't follow that schedule right away, it's not the end of the world. You may want to discuss abnormalities with your family doctor though, just to make sure your body is 100% healthy.
A Girl's First Period - Embarrassing Mishaps
Part of becoming a woman is dealing with all the embarrassing period mishaps. If at any point while at school your period leaks through your clothing, excuse yourself to the office and get them to call the 'rents to bring you something to change into. Keeping some spare pants and underwear in your locker is always a good idea (even if it's just your gym strip). Avoid wearing white or light-colored pants and underwear during the week of your period to cut down on the chance of visible leakage as well.
A Girl's First Period - Basic Supplies
# While getting your first period is an exciting event, it unfortunately can come with some uncomfortable side-effects. Take a look at what you'll need to battle these symptoms head on. An adequate supply of pads and/or tampons.

just be patient..if you are not having sex or anything like that than you have nothing to worry about. I rarely get my period and when I do it is usually just very light light bleeding, so you may be like I am. Hope I could help and I am sorry no one is answering your question, that can get frustrating!
