Pregnancy test: It sounds like you have not had a normal period since May 10th, and these other episodes of bleeding have been very light and just spotting. Today (June 7) is only 4 weeks since your last period, so it is possible it may be about to start soon. It never hurts to take a pregnancy test just in case.
