Brief Answer:
Periods coming...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

From what you are saying, the bleeding is sign of your period although not a normal period.

However, if it is only a light bleeding could be also an implantation bleeding. I love to admit it is implantation bleeding, but, your yesterday test resulted negative. So, very few chances for possible pregnancy.

If bleeding will still be light and no period will appear, then, can repeat the testing in a week time. Otherwise, good luck the next month!

All the best!
