CM check/Spotting ???

Good Morning Ladies 🌞

Around the time AF is due, you’re doing a CM check & see pink. Red. Or brown. But nothing ever on liner/pad or underwear. Is that considered spotting? I am waiting on AF having all AF symptoms, now on day 3 of seeing light pink to a deep pink only during CM check. 🤔

What do we call this?

Thanks Beauties 🌻🌼🌸
