i am so confuse!!! I have a somewhat of a normal cycle 33-38 days.i am 26 and sexually active. My last af was sep. 24 but i started spotting brownish blood on oct. 10 and my period is not due until oct 27 this is my first time spotting and lately i been have headaches and backaches, picked up a few pounds and been sleepy and always hungry but i think thats just normal pms. i dont know whats really going on. So on Oct 28 i began spotting again but i only see it when i wipe after using the bathroom and took 2 hpt and both came out negative.

In 1 of my pregnancies, I could not get a positive test result until I was 2 weeks late. Keep on trying!
Otherwise, maybe your hormones are just out of whack?

the blood may not be from your period - but that kind of thing has happened to be too. first make sure that it's only happening when you've used the bathroom, because it could be a completely different problem. if you're SURE it's spotting or discharge, then it can actually be pretty normal. missing your period just sometimes happens when you're body changes, or your hormones are acting up. however, spotting can be very serious, esp when you add in some other symptoms. i suggest you see a gynecologist asap just to make sure nothing serious is going on.
