What the blazes is going on with this period?

[Ca Plane Pour Moi]

Thanks for the reassurance, Sunflowa - it's good to know I'm like someone! Even if it's not me.

OK, Sunday was actually more like heavy spotting but today, Monday - nothing. At all. Quite a bit of mucus but NO blood.

What's going on?

I am figuring I usually have a 5 day period, this has been 10 days. I've also lost about half the blood I'd usually lose. Maybe a bit less. Plus the only pain I got was for a half-hour or so on Monday (quite bad) and mildly on Wednesday - made me feel a bit sicky and shakey, but not too painful.

What is happening to my body? Why isn't it being nice to me and just doing what it normally does?

My next period should be due... around the 13th? I'm leaving for Yorks on the 18th of December and it is definately due before then. So I shouldn't be a madwoman over Christmas at least... not that I mind when I go mad, just I don't want to do it in the middle of family gatherings! I also don't want to wait a month before I can think "phew, normal again".

PLEASE someone else agree that I'm normal! Or tell me why this is happening!
