Odd period

Last Tuesday (the 8th of December), I started to spot. In past experiences, I spot for 2 days and then bleed heavily like a regular period and taper off within 5 days. Well I spotted long than I wished to and it seemed to be tapering off. I started to wonder if this was it. A very light period? But I put on a different pair of jeans (ones with magnets in my pockets) and the next day the blood came (Saturday is my official day 1). Maybe it was magnets and maybe it was coincidence. I was starting to worry that I had another odd ball period. Still, I'm hoping this wont be the new norm.

My cycle was 37 days apart this time, which is semi-normal. I can't complain much, it's MUCH better than having them every 12 days. I've never been like clockwork and I'm pretty sure the stress of the holidays plus a new gym membership is the reason I'm a few days late. Stress is the #1 reason for my periods not coming when they are expected. I am beginning to accept that nothing is the way it used to be. Not only have I reached 30 years of age, but I've donated my eggs six times. This is bound to have a permanant effect on my body.
