I received my last period on March 17-23. On April 9-11 I had some spotting... you could only tell when wiping. I have not received my period for April. Could I be pregnant, or was the spotting my April period. Between the March and April date was only about 16 days. My periods are usually 26-32 day cycle.Thanks for your help.

You could be pregnant, but you could also be having a wonky cycle. Though if you add things up you've almost missed your period by two weeks. I would give it another day and take a home pregnancy test. Use the first urine of the day, it will be a little more concentrated and give you a more accurate response.
Random and light spotting can occur any time throughout your cycle and for no reason whatsoever. It is part of the magic of your cycle.

I spot for three days before I get my period. Sometimes the spotting disappears and then reappear a day later. Then my period officially begins. This happens at least 50% of the time.
If you're really worried, test with an HPT. I've done so many times. If spending a few dollars will make my anxiety disappear, then it's money well spent. :)

Could be an off cycle, but certainly pregnancy is possible. Go ahead and try a pregnancy test. If negative, either try again after several more days, or you could wait and see what happens when you would expect your period for May.
