You will prob start full on in the next month or two. What you had is called spotting. It must be coming really soon. It starts out like that. So be careful, make sure you always keep tampons or pads with you at all times. Beware of wearing white! ]
Since this was your first period it must be normal.
Most first periods are odd. Usually you don't bleed as much as average girls that have longer had their period do. This is absolutely normal, so don't worry. It will take a while since it goes to normal. Your body is just getting used to it functioning this way, it also depends on your hormones. You might need to take pills for your hormones because it could be that there is some difference in them but I doubt it. Normal women count 28 day between their periods. But for a teenager, it might take as long as 38 days since your body is still getting used to it.
Yes, I think you have started your period, just mark it on the calendar every time you get it so you can count 28-38 days on the calendar.

Hi, I'm old enough to be your grandfather and I thought a little grandfatherly advice might be useful to you.
The answer given by bewise is absolutely correct.I'm writing to suggest to that while we are here to answer these type of questions for you. The best source of information for these questions is your mom, Aunt or Grandmother.
Going through puberty is a natural event, this is what is happening to you now, something everyone goes through. There is nothing to be embarrassed about, it is not a sexual question, it is a question as to something happening that is new in your body function(s).
You should not feel uncomfortable or embarrassed in going to mom or any of your other female relative you might feel comfortable talking with. You are becoming a young woman which is a beautiful part of life for a young girl. While it can be disturbing, even traumatic for some mom is there, on scene as we say in the fire service, to help you and put you at ease. She will also know if something isn't right and needs a doctors attention.
I'm not saying not to write us with questions that may embarrass you to ask of your mom or others in your family where here for for those questions. For questions such as this one or questions such as physical pain or ailments; the best persons to ask are mom, dad or your doctor. ]
Hi, Yes it sounds like you have your period. What can happen is that for the first 6 months (approx) it can come and go at irregular times, until it settles more into a pattern.
It might be that you miss a month or that it comes every 6 weeks or something like that. It's like in the beginning your period can't read a calendar. It has to learn!
I hope that helps.
If you are concerned see your doctor. ]
