I'm pretty sure spotting is common on some drugs. I personally have spotted for 6 months on depovera, and the doctor told me that was normal. I couldn't take it so I quit that birth control. But I think your fine. If it gets to heavy I would talk to your doctor just to make sure. But other then that I don't think you should worry to much.
