Question

Im real confused?.. please help.. spotting for 5 days starting a week before AF is due..

Okay so heres the deal.. last month I had periods about 18 days apart.. (that could be irrelevant).. anywho.. now here i am on CD26 of a 28 day cycle (normally, last month was a fluke!) and I have been spotting for 5 days.. not enough to even use a pad, tampon, or pantyliner! Its just there when i wipe.. (TMI).. Ive had slight cramps on and off but my lower back is killing me.. It usually does around AF time but not like this.. I also have this weird like sore feeling in my lower abdominal area.. my breasts hurt but arent very sensitive.. idk I havent been temping or anything so I dont know when I would have ovulated. I havent really been TTC, but not preventing it either..what could this possibly be? Any help would be awesome.. implantation? i REALLY REALLY light period?.. the color has varied from pink/dark brown/brick red.. no clots..thanks in advance!

I would LOVE to hear someone who knows what they're talking about to answer this.. I had the same thing happening to me starting about a week before my period was due, but all the information I could find on google is just too vague and kind of all over the place.. I'm now 15 dpo but haven't had a chance to test again since a faint line appeared on 13 dpo. Hope all works out for you!
