Experiencing a weird period and need advice badly

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to state that I m a bit stressed out and all this is the first time this is ever happening to me during my period.

On the 11 November evening I noticed a little bit of light pink blood so I was like oh my period is here so I was preparing for it.

However on the 12th nothing just blank on my pad.

On the 13th I got even more stressed cause I would go to the bathroom n when I whip I would see red or dark red or brown blood.

But nothing on my pad.

So now I m super confused why I have no flow but I have little bit cramps n was hoping I would be flowing by now.

Please advice if this is normal or what to do next.
