DENIAL ALERT! can AF appear to appear and still be pregnant?!

[hugahuddy]

this may be idiotic but i really felt pregnant this month, AF seems to have appeared but seems a bit lighter, is it possible to bleed and still be pregnant, still feel tingly and heavy in my lower abdomen, is it worth a POAS, any experience or mocking welcomed!

If it's proper flow bleeding, then highly unlikely I'm afraid. I had implantation bleeding with my DS and it only lasted for half a day, was bleeding though, not just the pink/brown that most people experience.

If it's light and short then wait 3 days and test, no point before then, if it is implantation.

FWIW my 2WW has come to an end and I'd love to think it was implantation bleeding but despite feeling very pregnant the last 2 cycles, I know in my heart it's AF.

Sorry. On to the next......

thank you and darn! sorry to hear you're disappointed too, good to know someone going through the same thing at the same time though!
i will have to completely inore anything i think is symptoms in the future, i'm obviously not that in tune with my body!!!

I know what you mean. Always felt very in tune with my body and just "knew" when I was pg with DS but clearly I've actually no idea. Was so sure I was pg the first month ttc, would have put money on it and quite shocked when af turned up!

Day 2 of af today though and feeling much better, over the hurdle so to speak and full of hope for this cycle. 3rd time lucky I hope.

Good luck to you!

I had a light, brown bleed when period was due last weekend on cd29 (have been trying for 7 months). Turned out to be implantation- but I didn't get a proper bfp til weds morning (cd32). From what I obsessively read between bleed and bfp, implantation tends to be brown, not fresh red blood. But as that is how my period normally starts, I absolutely thought we'd been unlucky this month. It was only when the bleeding stopped after just one day that my hopes were raised. Having said that, I have tried to convince myself each time af arrived for the last seven months that is was implantation... It is v frustrating when it's just af after all. Good luck!

hugahuddy, I know exactly how you feel,
I feel Weird as even tho af came on time (4 days after last pill) i am still symtom spotting, i have got Weird pains in abdomen (not usual af pains) af was alot lighter than usual and have back ache and tierd at only 9.00pm.

Its down to the fact i missed loads of pills on my last month, think my mind is paying tricks on me i think.

So think i will be a nervous wreak on here every 2ww.
