I don't think it is..but it will be coming soon!
The stickiness tells me that it's not blood, which wouldindicate your period. Blood is usually very thin, and vaginal discharge (which comes before and after your period) is thick and sticky, and sometimes a dark brown or red color before your period.)
If you havn't already, I would go and buy all the essentials...
pads,
midol,
wipes (they are ALWAYS helpful... especially if you are using a pad... which is best for first-timers.)
etc.
Good luck!

Hello Ally :)
I had the same thing happen to me a couple of years ago. Have you recently started taking the Pill? I myself take Norimin, which has affected my bleeding. I used to bleed for around 4 days, quite heavily.. with a strong red colour of blood. Now it will last 1-2 days with mostly brown colouring, and sometimes I will not get my period at all. This affects 5% of women that take Norimin birth control.
Another thing to consider is your weight. If you are underweight, sometimes this can affect your period...
I hope this helps, if you want to talk a bit more about it, feel free to add me to yahoo messenger - taja_videl.

Yes, I think it is your period. Usually the first period does not start heavy or with any cramps.( It didnt for me anyway) and yes, the brown stuff is just a darker colored blood , it only happens when its not heavy.

You don't say how old you are, but you sound young. It's possible that you did have your first period, you might not have cramps the first time. Can you talk to your mom or another woman you trust? Good luck and congratulations, it's a big event in your life!

So I guess this is your first period, correct?
When I first had mine, it was red. The brown stuff comes after marking the ending of your course.
I don't know what it is. But it does seem to be your period.

sure, you have become your era, sweetie! =) and the 'sparkling stuff' on your panties a pair of weeks previously is from you ovulating. it somewhat is only sparkling vaginal mucous. as quickly as you initiate having your sessions consistantly, only initiate wearing panty liners during ovulation and an afternoon or so in the previous you're with the aid of initiate so which you do no longer harm loads of underclothes! communicate on your mom, she will have the skill to appreciate. that's what mom's are there for!!

Well, sometimes that happens to me, but only AFTER i get my period. It's how your body relieves itself of wastes.
