Hi Ashley,
I have a few more questions for you, but to answer your question: no, this does not indicate a pregnancy. Women who have menstrual bleeding do not have viable pregnancies.
Periods can be all colors, and this is normal. Brown, pink, red...or some combination. Periods can change over time, they can start light and end heavy; they can start heavy and end light. Periods can be different colors, amounts/flow, durations; they can have symptoms or no symptoms (headache, irritability, etc). These changes are all normal.
I am a little confused as to the exact dates you have been bleeding and/or spotting. Can you tell us what day your period started on? Then, you said you stopped bleeding...and then started spotting again?
Since you mentioned you are taking birth control, this spotting in-between periods is known as "breakthrough bleeding" and is normal. How long have you been using birth control (pills, I assume?).
