Answers:
Yes, it's normal. 5 pads a day would be every 2-3 hours while you're awake, so that's just about right. If you're soaking through to the edges of a heavy flow maxi pad every hour, that's when your flow is TOO heavy and you should talk to a doctor.
Experiencing fatigue and pain in your lower back are totally normally, classic PMS symptoms. If they bother you a lot, try some OTC pain relievers like Ibuprofen or Motrin, or Tylenol if you have a sensitive stomach. Some people even use Aleve, which is made for arthritis sufferers, but some swear it helps menstrual symptoms the best out of all the OTC pain relievers.
Especially because this is only your second period, it's normal for your period to be erratic for the first few months. Your flow and symptoms may be totally different between months, and you may even skip a period, or get one sooner than expected. All of this is entirely normal while your body figures out how to manage your hormones and evens everything out.
i have the same thing :) its normal

Yes, 5 a day is normal. I use more on my heavy days, and about that on my light days. It's good to change it anytime it has anything on it. I do get tired when I'm about to start, some women get back aches, that's normal. Your period will probably change over the years. It will most likely get heavier in a few years and maybe become more regular. The length of your period might change too, there's just no way to know for sure. But that's all very normal. You can email me if you have any more questions, I'm very happy to answer. Email me through my profile, k?

yes thats normal. Every woman has different flows. Some are heavier than others, and some lighter. Yours seems to not be that bad. Being tired and achy is completely normal also. Your cycle may change over the years, but usually it's a gradual change.
everyone is different when they are on their period, but i go through about 5 or maybe more depending on the flow.
when my period gets ready to start i'm usually tired and somewhat agitated too.
