Spotting From Birth Control?

Mi

I recently started birth control again after about 6-7 years of not having it. I just started my 3rd week of my first month and I have been non stop spotting for about a week now. It started with small spotting and I put a tampon in last night and woke up to this. It looks like there’s extra mucus in it or something? I’m not sure. Is this normal? And why is there so much spotting coming out/happening right now? Sorry for the TMI pic and thanks for any help. I have no family at home to ask these questions to, to this is my safe place 🙈
