implantation bleeds and stuff

You do know me, it's just that I don't feel ready to talk about any pg issues openly yet - this soon after my mc I feel uncharacteristically reticent!

Since my last period we suddenly got broody, after having said we'd wait some time. So we did the tests, worked out my dates and did the deed last Saturday.

Now, I am not sure exactly when my last period started, but I would expect my next one to be 14 days after ovulation - surely whatever the length of your cycle, it is always 14 days after ovulation? So a bit of bleeding (stringy brown bits) yesterday - is that an implantation bleed? Is an implantation bleed usually accompanied by lower back period type pains? Or is all this in my head?

It is a question about implanation bleeds, MTS. But we are all being totally inept at keeping undercover!
Do you have any advice on my original question?

but what about the posters that meant to put another name in on the very first post but forget to - I'm sure I have seen that on threads before!

nutcracker · 15/08/2004 19:29

Wish i could say i had done it for that reason ssshhh, cos that would be clever.

Think i just set the record for the shortest ever time succesfully being undercover

Excuse me while i bang my head on my desk

MummyToSteven · 15/08/2004 19:29

ssshhh - not just a nosey cow lurker, honest - thought it might be a question about implantation bleeds that I could answer - of course I am being a nosey cow lurker for continuing to look at the thread, of course!

Oh dear cover blown

nutcracker · 15/08/2004 19:16

ssshhh - Yes we have out in an order LOL, but i keep having second thoughts, mainly becuase i had a problem pregnancy last time and I know i would this time too.
Otherwise i would be really excited about it.

I should have to hard a job keeping away from the tests actually as I've always got the kids with me at the mo and Dd1 is very nosey.

popsycal · 15/08/2004 19:14

sssshhh - I have also had a little bit of bleeding: at 9 weeks then again last week (twice). I had my scan a week early and all is fine. Had light bleeding around time of implantation with ds then nothing else. I think some women are just more susceptible to pregnancy hormones than others.

Hope you are ok and get the news that you want (whoever you are )

hi popsy - I didn't know you were pg - congratulations! (maybe I should have known, but I've been hiding from the conception/pg boards recently!). I bled on lots of occassions with both of my previous pgs too - you're right, it is just a case of wait and see.

eternity - so I assume you put in an order with the baby fairies? how do you mean "keep changing my mind"? Do you mean, like us, that you will take each month as it comes and decide there and then whether to give it a go? I promise to do my best to keep you away from those tests - I am holding out until next Saturday - although I'm sure I'll know the other way by then.

hi ssssh
I am 11 weeks pregnant with my second. Around 7 days after conception I had exactly as you describe. It disappeared the day my period was due. I think it a case of wait and see. Good luck

eternity · 15/08/2004 17:16

Hi all.
I am currently trying to (well sort of, keep changing my mind).

I have changed my name too

Please no one let me waste my money on a test until at least 28th
