ABNORMAL extremely light period?

So I got my period yesterday (I think?) and its so confusing. At first I thought I was just spotting so I put on a pad. It's like, a constant trickle. Not necessarily a flow...but trickle? The blood is moving so slow I've had the same pad on since this morning and theres a small area of black/brown blood. But it's constant and it's more than the reddish brown spotting I had for a couple days before yesterday. I dont know if I can consider it my period or just spotting but it's always there, like, I have to wear a pad but it'd probably take 8+ hours to fill the pad. If this isnt enough info to know I can post a picture of my pad but I'd rather not. I'm just confused because my boobs stopped hurting, temp went down, I'm cramping, and EVERYTHING but my period(?) is so light I'm not even sure if I can count it as a period.
