Help, Implantation bleeding?

114 replies

Laurenxx94 · 26/07/2021 09:24

Hey everyone.
I’m on month 10 of ttc my second.
Really struggling!
Anyway we just had a nice holiday abroad and ovulated in that time so haven’t thought much.

Currently on CD21 and have a 28/29 day cycle every month.

I started bleeding last night when I wiped but nothing on pants. It was dark red 😞same again this morning nothing on pants not a full flow. anyway I just wondered people’s experiences with implantation bleeding? I am a spotter before af but never this early! Maybe 5 days before af at most!
Im definitely too early for af as I’m only cd 21! Just wanted some peoples advice on this. Thanks !

@Laurenxx94 yes good thinking. I’ve just got the tiniest bit of brown this morning. Only time will tell if it stops / positive hey. It’s the most awful wait 😩

@Flossy1982 you still are early! I've not had anymore bleeding but like you just feel like af round the corner, going to test Sunday. Xxx

@Laurenxx94 negative today. I’m feeling that it’s just my usual AF symptoms just earlier and a bit different. I wouldn’t be surprised if AF comes earlier & I was right with my symptom log for ovulation but we’ll see. Have you tested?

@Flossy1982 I'm not joking you have described the exact way things are going for me , the red on wiping to start now brown etc exactly the same how strange!!!! Same minor cramps etc I have on off burning boobs but could mean anything !! When u going to test again xx

Flossy1982 · 28/07/2021 17:48

@Laurenxx94 well still much the same. (Advance TMI warning) I find it even more strange because I usually spot browny colour on run up to AF but yesterday morning it was bright pink/red but really minimal and only in the morning then a little light brown on wiping then nothing. Today bright pink/red on wiping first thing, tiny bit of brown on wiping tonight. Nothing in underwear at all. I just don’t feel quite right, not ill but a bit sicky and very minor crampage dull aches still.
Negative test but as mentioned I’m not sure if I’m 8/9/10dpo so I suppose still early
How are you?

Haha @Flossy1982 definitely not out until heavy flow! We're both still in the running 😂 I feel I'm out though with 3 days of red spotting totally off putting xx

Talking to you I feel back in the game 🤣🤣🤣

Flossy1982 · 27/07/2021 18:58

9dpo on my personal symptom checker but 7dpo from Peak ovulation

Flossy1982 · 27/07/2021 18:57

Nothing since but that’s not unusual but it 7dpo it’s 2 days earlier

Flossy1982 · 27/07/2021 18:57

Yes today, tiny bit this morning so counted myself out

@Flossy1982 have you started spotting?

OP posts:
Flossy1982 · 27/07/2021 16:54

@Laurenxx94 yes please do, if I go by OPK I’m 7dpo not 9dpo which is very early for spotting like you so now it’s interesting again 🤣

@Flossy1982 that's a good way to look at it definitely ! I would go with the opks, remember dtd up to 5 days before too which is best time, fingers crossed for us this month keep me updated on symptoms xx

Common to find it hard I mean

Flossy1982 · 27/07/2021 16:29

@Laurenxx94 10months is hard too - I didn’t realise how common it was to conceive because typically all my family & friends just look at each other and fall 🙄

Flossy1982 · 27/07/2021 16:28

@Laurenxx94 yes it is but we didn’t really think about it - we just stopped using contraception and said we’ll see what happens and then fell pregnant first time round on a random quickie 🤣🤣 only one time in the month! After all the trauma we were told we would likely conceive quickly afterwards but we didn’t and then I got more advice and realised the whole extent of trying to conceive!!! Sometimes you are the lucky ones and sometimes not. I’ve not really talked about it before and just gone with the flow but now I’m taking it seriously. I do use OPK’s and they are always solid smiley on CD12 so it logs that I ovulate on CD13, my chart without OPK’s says CD14 and my symptoms say I ovulate on CD11 so I’ve got to broaden my horizons with DTD 🤣🤣🤣 we are so busy and so comfortable that we are not the best at DTD but we always make time for each other after AF finishes but still actually do it for fun rather than baby making so I blame us for not being in it to win it enough but we tried that and got very stressed with each other and disheartened

@Flossy1982 that's a long time sorry to hear that!
Do u use OPKS?

I have a daughter with previous partner who's 5 and my and my current partner have been trying 10
Months feels like forever xx

Flossy1982 · 27/07/2021 15:41

@Laurenxx94 3 years!!! :( and we don’t have age on our side both 38 - we spent 14 years living our life and doing all the things we wanted before finally settling down 🤣🤣🤣 we haven’t been the best at trying to be honest and after our ‘pregnancy unknown location’ during the height of COVID last year we were traumatised but we are back in the game and I’ve got better at monitoring and making moves lol. You sound much more active than I am so keeping everything crossed for you. Have you been trying long? Is it your first?

@Nat6999 that's interesting got mine middle of June and first cycle was ok but definitely
Something to think about? Thanks for that!

@Flossy1982 how long have you been ttc? Hoping it's good news for u. X

OP posts:
Flossy1982 · 27/07/2021 15:32

@Laurenxx94 I’ve also have dull aches low tummy & fuller boobs with slightly sore nips which is not usual for me in week 1 of tww

Flossy1982 · 27/07/2021 15:31

@Nat6999 I’m not sure who you mean but I had my second one at the beginning of June and my cycle was normal that month.
@Laurenxx94 it’s interesting because if I hadn’t logged the ovulation early I would be 7dpo which like you is really early for spotting so maybe just maybe it is implantation 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 I don’t think anyone can be 100% on ovulation unless temping I think. Surely I’ll come on early if ovulation was early?
It’s going to be a long week!!!

Have you recently had a Covid Jab? It can mess up your cycles.
