Hi, Anon,

Even with the extra spotting, I am still with Alison -- by using both a condom AND having your partner pull out, it is extremely, extremely unlikely that you could be pregnant.

My guess is that you're having a hormonal blip this month for some reason and you're having a bit of breaththrough bleeding. I know that it's not something you've experienced before, but it does happen to many women. I realize this is frustrating! Especially when you have irregular periods. But spotting can be caused by stress, hormones, low thyroid levels (which is probably not the case with you since this is the first time it's happened), even vaginal infections.

Since this is a one-time thing, I wouldn't worry too much. I think you're just going to have to wait it out and see when your period comes. I know that's no fun! But try not to stress or focus on it too much. That can actually delay things further. Hormones are funny things.
