Very normal. Many woman have spotting when first starting the pill. It should stop after a month or so. You may stop having your period all together while on the pill. If the spotting doesn't stop I suggest talking to a doctor or switching to another birth control.

It could be that the uterus did not expel all of the blood during your period and so spotting occurs mid-cycle.
