I am on the pill. The last time I had sex and he finished inside me was the second week of January. On the fourth week of January I started getting cramps a few days before my reminder week and my period. I also had some brown discharge. This worried me a lot, but then on Monday I did get my period like I was supposed to, but it was heavier than usual. It ended that Thursday. The fact that I did get my period should have eased my nerves but for some reason I am still so nervous about it. I have felt bloated and gassy ever since I started cramping the week before my period. Is this normal? Could it just be the birth control?

That sounds perfectly normal. Not all of our periods are going to be identical. Sometimes mine are heavier or ligher, longer or shorter. I think you're safe.
