Vaginal discharge is normal and varies during your menstrual cycle. Before ovulation (the release of the egg), there is A LOT of mucous produced, up to 30X more than after ovulation. It is also more watery and elastic during that phase of your cycle. You may want to wear panty liners during that time.
The things to be worried about include if the discharge has a yellow or green color, is clumpy like cottage cheese, or has a bad odor. If worried, see your doctor. Spotting Blood/Brown Discharge: This may occur when you are ovulating/mid-cycle. Sometimes early in pregnancy you may have spotting or a brownish discharge at the time your period would normally come. If you have spotting at the time of your normal period rather than your usual amount of flow, and you have had sex without using birth control, you should check a pregnancy test.

When I was younger, my period was extremely irregular. Now, it is rock solid which is nice. As long as the discharge doesn't smell really bad (like fish), it probably is your period and I wouldn't worry about it. Sometimes a period starts out brown and goes red.
If I were you though and still worried, I would go talk to a doctor! They can rule out bacterial infections which is what else the brownish stuff could be (you don't have to be sexually active to have infections). As you get older, you'll start recognizing the clues to your period and it won't be so traumatic. Hope this helps!!

ok, that's a little odd to have your first and second 8months apart... but i guess everyone's different... it's possible it was just a little "bleed". how long did it last? if it was like 5-10 (about) days it was a period. and also, trust me, you'd know if you were having PMS. plus how are you sure you've gotten PMS if you aren't even positive you've had a period yet? :S

omg...this exact thing happened to me. don't worry, mine was very irregular in the beginning. my first period i only had a TINY amount of blood, and then i didn't get it again for about 7 months. after about a year it was perfectly regular. don't worry!!

that's probably your second period, or something like it. when you first get it, it can be very irregular. PMS symptoms include- abdominal pain, sore back, stomach ache, etc. however, you should definitely ask your mom. she'll know more. if you can't though, good luck!
