Metallic taste

Hi everyone, I’ve had a metallic taste in my mouth since Sunday night (8dpo I think) didn’t think much of it until I googled it and it says it can be a pregnancy symptom? I did a cheap test this morning and had a BFN, the taste seems to be getting stronger 🤢 just wondering if anyone had this symptom and went on to have a BFP?
Sorry for the essay 🙈
Thanks for any replies xx

@KatieA1234 stopped spotting not long after starting commenting on this so 3 days spotting metallic taste and mild cramping.

Who knows what’s going on🤷‍♀️

@AmandaHoldensLips oh really? Did you get that before a bfp? That sounds promising, but don’t want to get my hopes up haha, going to try holding off until the weekend to test again..

@Anonymous2345 ahh yeah could be too early if your still spotting, I’d try again in a few days, fingers crossed for you 🤞 x

It was always my first symptom. That's how I realised I was accidentally up the duff with my 3rd. Took one sip of tea and... oh no... not again...!

@Anonymous2345 aww don’t be silly! Oohh I would say it could be, I’ve never experienced implantation bleeding before so I’m not quite sure what to look out for.. I’d give it a couple of days and maybe try testing?x

Hello, sorry for jumping on your post hun. Ive been having the metallic taste for the last 2 days and I’ve been experiencing some spotting for 2-3 days now, it started a light pale pink barely noticeable and then turned to dark brown. I don’t need a panty liner or anything it’s just there when I wipe it’s very light. I’m due on my period on the 10th/11th December. could this be implantation bleeding?
