Ladies I don’t know if i’ve just had an implantation bleed (or ovulation???)!!!!!! I’m supposed to be 5dpo and had cramping today and i’ve just been to the toilet and when I wiped there was a few blood streaks in sort of creamyish ewcm?????

ForGiddyDreamer · 22/07/2025 18:52

@DorsetGirl89 those symptoms are encouraging and you are so attuned with your body! Fingers crossed 🤞

His xrays were clean but the vet thinks he's either soft tissue damage or a clot reached his leg, causing damage. His chest scan showed an enlarged heart. He's very unhappy, quite grumpy and keeps falling over. I've to keep him on meds for 6 more days and then the vet will reassess him. I'm hoping he picks up.

EmPeEf · 22/07/2025 18:22

@DorsetGirl89 and @amey44 I’m really feeling for you both today. Being confused on your cycle is almost the absolute worst thing to have going on, I really sympathise.

@ForGiddyDreamer aww, I'm so sorry to hear that. Sending hugs ❤️

@DorsetGirl89 I'm sorry this is happening. It's all so hard and confusing. I agree with @ForGiddyDreamer test again in a couple of days x

@amey44 sorry, I'm not a temp expert. Hopefully someone can help.

ForGiddyDreamer · 22/07/2025 13:31

@DorsetGirl89 It's quite possible for that to happen. When I was discharged from the EPU they classed an HcG level of 3 and under as 'not pregnant'. FRER sensitivity is 5. So you could have just implanted and the levels were low for the blood draw and have increased overnight to show on the test. I am sorry you are going through the am I/ aren't I scenario again but test again in 2 days time and hopefully that line darkens.

I am so confused with this cycle I’m supposed to be 5dpo but I have no clue now also does anyone know anything about bbt? Mine is so baffling this cycle CD 8-12 my temp ranged from 36.5-36.8 then dropped CD13 to 36.3 and since (didn’t log cd 15,16,17) it’s been 36.5 until today it’s 36.4??? Idk if these temps even tell me i’ve ovulated yet because usually my temp is much higher before my period:( I just feel done with this cycle atm

Congratulations @DorsetGirl89 & @hollyhocks2 ❤️

I'm cd 12 and am definitely ovulating. Confirmed it with a CB & strip. We bd yesterday and will do today.

Things are difficult here at the moment. My little dog became very ill yesterday and he had to be sedated for tests. He's very unwell and my heart is just broke. He's 13 and my absolute world. I don't think I'd cope if something happened to him. 2 preg losses and him unwell 😢

@DorsetGirl89wow you knew it didn't you 🥺 I can very clearly see it x

SureLook · 22/07/2025 09:41

@amey44 sorry, that's so frustrating!

@hollyhocks2 how annoying that the other GP wouldn't prescribe progesterone. But I'm sure it'll fine until next week x

@BambinaBoo oh, fingers crossed!

@EmPeEf sorry I'm not good with temps. But solidarity x

@DorsetGirl89 I can definitely see that! Tentative congratulations ❤️

@hollyhocks2 that's great to hear 👏🏻

I got my period back yesterday 🥳 about four weeks since I started spotting or three and a half weeks since I took the tablets. So the countdown to TTC again is on!

@DorsetGirl89 oh wow, I can see it! Your instincts are spot on! Yes it's nerve wracking but yay Smile

I've just tested again after 2 days and think my line is fractionally darker. I also did a digital, it came up 1-2 weeks which is spot on, and then I'll take the other digital in the pack in a week's time and hope for 2-3 to put my mind at ease.

@EmPeEf could it be implantation dip? When I got pregnant with the twins my temp dropped below cover for one day and then straight back up again, must have been the day I implanted with hindsight!

BambinaBoo · 21/07/2025 21:37

EmPeEf · 21/07/2025 21:09

Feeling your frustration @amey44 crossing fingers for you anyway.

@BambinaBoo sounding good!

Thanks! How are things going for you, Em?

FarAwayBird · 21/07/2025 21:35

@EmPeEf Does this chart make you 10dpo? That’s around the time my temp dips if AF is on the way. I think it’s normal? Sorry. Probably not what you want to hear! Can you compare to other months?

OP posts:
EmPeEf · 21/07/2025 21:15

Temp this morning was so below cover line it’s not even funny 😭 what would be the first things to talk to the GP about if my cycle isn’t normal because of my age? Does it look like I’m struggling with progesterone?

I’m also still breastfeeding my nearly 2 year old. Very rarely overnight, usually just feed to sleep and maybe when he wakes up if I can’t leave the house without being seen! TBH if it is affecting my chances I’m not prepared to stop until he’s ready so I won’t be making any changes. We’ve only tried one month (this months a right off, I’m ill exactly when I expect to be ovulating). I’ve had regular periods back for about 6 months now

ThatNimbleOP · 21/07/2025 19:09

@hollyhocks2 @DoubleDandelion @ChaE05 scuse if i miss anyone, detail isn't my forte haha!

Haven't gotten pregnant at all in that time, maybe faint line one month at 7DPO then nothing. That's the strangest thing to me. I know lots of women have got pregnant, just can't think of any other factor when all our results are normal either side (bar low progesterone but just got told to stop BF'ing haha).

Getting the oura ring tomorrow, hoping it'll give me more insight now :)

Wishing you all luck and congrats on breastfeeding as long as you all are by the sounds haha.
