Hi all, first time posting for me so not sure exactly how to word this!! Hubby and I are TTC using donor sperm due to hubby's infertility. I suffered a MC in Feb at around 5 weeks.

This month I am so confused and hoping someone else out there has been through the same. This is the 1st month we have TTC after MC. AF is due today 7/5. I started bleeding lightly 2 days ago (my period is NEVER early or late its always 28 day cycle exactly even after MC). It started brown then pink. Yesterday was red but still very light. This morning I thought it was AF so used a tampon. Normally AF starts heavy from the off and lasts 5-6 days always the same every month. Have been using a panty liner since as flow is very light although is red. Negative Preg test this morning. I have felt just "not quite right" but not ill the last week or so. Mouth watering a lot, appetite increases, tired, headaches. WIth the MC i had sore boobs for about a week before AF due but havent had that this time although nipples a little sore kind of burning a little when touched. And look darker to me more brown than pink. I know it's a waiting game but just wondered what others had experienced? ANyone have similar and go on to have Positive test? Anyone have any thoughts on whether implantation bleed or just AF playing up (although never been early or late in 18 years and this is the first month we have TTC again). After MC my period arrived exactly 28 days later and same last month again completely regular and same flow as always only this month where it is possible i could have conceived it has came 2 days early? ANy thoughts/experiences greatly appreciated!!

Could be either. I had no implantation bleed on my first pregnancy but PMT like symptoms, then similar to what you describe on my second. On my second, 'AF' started a few days earlier than expected on Saturday morning, then stopped Sunday. The Tuesday night, I took a pregnancy test and there was a very faint line. I suspect if I'd POAS after just 24 hours bleeding ie where you are now, would have been negative. Not sure whether MC would make any difference.
