* WARNING TMI PIC* Implantion Bleeding??

Katnissx · 08/12/2019 01:17

Does this look like implantation bleeding? I had it after DTD today and had a little more of the same on a pad since.
I'm cycle day 26 of a roughly 30/35 day cycle, my app shows that I am due on in 5 days which is usually accurate. I do have irregular periods but I'm not usually this early.
I didn't manage to confirm ovulation this cycle so no idea if/when I have.
I've also had minor headaches every day for the last like four days which tend to be hormonal for me, as well as waking up in the night to pee! -Which was a sign with DS1.
Going to test in the morning, but I am currently struggling to sleep so thought I would post on here and see what people think! Realllllly hope not AF 🤞🤞🤞🤞

@Shesalittlemadam wow what an amazing way to find out! Thank you 😊

@Katnissx
Yeah that’s how I found out I was pregnant with my DD. I was showing my DP how pregnancy tests work (yes, really! He’s pretty clueless about a lot of things!) we weren’t TTC or anything, just in conversation had discovered he thought it was a blood test! 🙈🤣 I’d bought ovulation tests by mistake when buying cheap pregnancy tests from pound shop (which I always keep in the bathroom, always have in case of sudden panic!) and bam! Very dark positive. Got hold of a pregnancy test later that day and it was super super faint.
Fingers crossed for you Crown Smile

Thanks @Shesalittlemadam , I actually found out I was PG with DS because I got a positive OPK three days in a row so did a pregnancy test and bam there it was!
However the last few months I was really confused with when I ovulated because the only time of the month I got a positive OPK I would start bleeding the next day/ two days later, so I started thinking I had a LH problem or something 😅 but after some looking into it I found out that your LH normally does surge a bit before AF comes on. I guess it could be a good indication though if I got a positive OPK and didn't start bleeding the next day 🤔 or maybe also if it continues being positive for multiple days like it did for DS?
Feeling less hopeful today really, another BFN on IC and the day before AF due. Also did another OPK which hasn't got any darker. Also feel like some of my 'symptoms' are lessening 😑
Thanks @Mich2020, I'm not so sure anymore 😣 hope your dark OPK is a good sign! Looks like we'll both be testing with FRERs tomorrow! X

@Katnissx I don't want to give you false hope but OPKs pick up pregnancy a lot sooner than pregnancy tests! I got a very positive OPK the day before period due.

Mich2020 · 11/12/2019 21:15

Also had another funny reading on my CB ovulation test a lot darker than yesterday's and still a blank circle so that's good but not taking lines as anything just going to see what happens over the next few days when either AF comes or fingers crossed a BFP. Will post both recent ones.
Ahh it's so hard isn't it, although I'm still testing early I think I'm 9dpo now, frer coming tomorrow so will hold off until Friday morning for that one.
Hope you get your bfp soon. Ive got a good feeling for you xx

Thanks for the replies.

@Blondeandbroody that's a really nice idea, I think I will write a list of positives tomorrow 🙂

Sorry to hear that @Mich2020, it's so hard seeing those BFNs 😣 Fingers crossed they turn to BFPs for us!

Did another IC just now with concentrated wee and was BFN, also did a OPK because what the hey! And it was fairly pink (not as dark as the control), no idea what that means though 🤣 I think my cervix feels lower which I don't think is promising, my CM is still EWCM though 😕 Will keep testing and see what happens!

@budgetbride no I don’t think you’re being shirty I am grateful you warned me , i didn’t even think so I’d rather you tell me now than me get jumped on . Thank you. Just full of emotions and wasn’t sure where to turn . Thank you x

Budgetbride · 11/12/2019 18:23

Please don’t think I was being shirty it’s just I’ve seen people really get jumped on for it. There’s loads of group threads running :) good luck with everything x

GaaaaarlicBread · 11/12/2019 17:40

@Budgetbride thanks will do. I did apologise yesterday and just felt like everyone was really welcoming and helpful . I’ll head off now . Thank you

Budgetbride · 11/12/2019 17:32

Really sorry you had a BFN @Katnissx
I hope that you get your BFP soon.
@ItsEmily I’m glad you’ve had responses on here and got the answers you wanted, but just a small thing, next time start your own thread, this thread is for the OP and sometimes they are discussing really upsetting things, chemical pregnancy etc, people can get really upset when you jump on their threads. I’m sure it’s fine this time but just for future reference.

Mich2020 · 11/12/2019 17:24

Cheapies turned up today. Done 2 different batches tonight and I think they are negative 👎🏼 will upload pics when it will let me xx

GaaaaarlicBread · 11/12/2019 16:22

I’m glad we DTD last night, because look at my OPK today . So I reckon I ovulated this morning ?

Blondeandbroody · 11/12/2019 10:39

@Katnissx I know lovely. I'm only on my first cycle so not had that BFN disappointment yet but I can sense how it will feel already.

I've been trying to make a list of positives if it doesn't happen this cycle and that really helps me prepare for the inevitable BFN X it won't stop me feeling disappointed no doubt but it will make it easier going into the next cycle

There are positives I swear x

But, this cycle isn't done til AF shows so fingers crossed 🤞🏻 xxxxx

@Blondeandbroody Thank you, I just can't help from feeling a bit disheartened 😞

@Katnissx you're not out until you get AF X

Katnissx · 11/12/2019 06:56

Cracked and did a FRER this morning and BFN 😞 does this mean I'm out?
@Mich2020 I would do the same if I didn't have OPKs haha, definitely a POAS addict 🙈

OP posts:
Mich2020 · 10/12/2019 21:39

Yes I've read that too and I know it would probably show a peak anyway I've read somewhere that someone had a peak reading before their bfp. It's just an empty circle and clearly just a waste of sticks but I need to pee on something lol.
Yes I know the feeling, it's very frustrating isn't it. I feel so different this month, I hope we both get our bfp I really do 🤞🏻🤞🏻 xx

@Mich2020 Fingers crossed for you, symptoms sound good! Hope you ICs get to you soon! I would just say to be careful with OPKs though as I spent the last few months being really confused with them as I kept getting positive (like super dark positives) 1 or 2 days before starting AF, I eventually found out you can get a LH surge before AF starts due to the progesterone (which inhibits LH) levels dropping which causes the LH to surge. Not necessarily what's happening for you though as OPKs also can pick up BFP but I just don't know how you would be able to tell which it is picking up 🙈
I'm getting a bit disheartened with BFNs, really feel pregnant, surely it's not all in my head?! Driving myself mad over here....

Mich2020 · 10/12/2019 19:28

@Katnissx yes, I have majorly sore boobs, very itchy nipples, creamy white cm (lots of) felt sick for a few days, haven't stopped eating, and very tired also cramps here and there but they seem to have settled down a lot now. Also don't know if I'm reading too much into it. Been taking ovulation tests with my clearblue digital and I know you shouldn't read the lines inside at all but tonight I got a very dark blue line, yesterday was lighter I'll post pics, wish my ICs would turn up so I don't have to waste ovulation tests. Although I know I'm not ovulating as they both have had empty circles. The first pic today's and second yesterday's xx

@itsemily it honestly doesn't need to be quite as dark as control band trust me! Yours is stronger than any I've ever had and I've fallen pregnant 3 times. And I am OBSESSED with peeing on a stick lol doing multiple daily after periods. Start baby dancing because you no doubt will be ovulating very soon. Good luck x

@Mich2020 ooh good luck! Have you had any symptoms or anything?
I don't usually get cramps around coming on AF so hoping it is a good sign but don't know if I'm just reading too much into everything 🤣 I also keep feeling super hungry even right after I've eaten, keep waking up in the middle of the night to pee (this happened early on when I was PG with DS), lots of clear CM, feeling a bit bloated, getting lots of headaches, had a cold since Sunday (can be a sign due to immune system lowering), keep feeling light headed and general tiredness 🤔 really hope I'm not just reading too much into it all! But also feel like I would have got a BFP by now surely 😞

Mich2020 · 10/12/2019 19:01

Sorry for late reply. I'm currently on cycle 8 I think, been trying for a while. Cd21 today and ovulated a lot earlier than I originally thought thanks to my clearblue ovulation tests else I wouldn't have known. Due to test in 4 days my app says but as soon as my cheapies turn up I'll be testing haha 😂

Ahh does it feel like period pains? Hopefully it's all the preparation inside going on 🤞🏻 xx
