Your body adjusting: Spotting after missing your Depo-Provera shot just indicates that your body is adjusting to "missing" hormone. If you've decided to have a baby, best to start prenatal vitamins (with extra Folic Acid) now to minimize risk of neural tube defect. Go see your Family Doc or OB for preconception counseling. Eat right, exercise regularly & get plenty of sleep as you're going 2b in for major life changes
