Posted about my cycle the other day as i keep getting negative opks, then sunday evening i had a little bit of spotting. I assumed this was af as my period is usually spotting the 1st day then gets heavy for 2 days then spotting again but its got even lighter again and i technically shouldnt be due on for around another 2 weeks anyway. I know u cant really tell from 1 temp reading but i NEVER get a temp even when ill and when i took it last week it was up to 37.1. Iv also got really itchy nipples and cannot shift my nausea today (i take anti sickness meds as i suffer with nausea on a regular basis) could it possibly be implantation bleeding or am i kidding myself?

When was your last period? When do you ovulate normally?

Is your temperature still high or was it a one off reading

i dont have a regular cycle so im not sure when i would have ovulated. Based on my last period it should have been last week but i did opks everyday and they were all negative so im wondering if iv maybe ovulated earlier than th calender thingy thinks i should have

Yes maybe you ovulated earlier? I had a constant raised temp, spotting, implantation cramps, 9dpo positive pregnancy test with most of mine.

However if your periods are irregular and it turns out you are not pregnant, it's worth going to your GP and asking for a day 21 progesterone test to check how well you are ovulating. I had periods and immature eggs so had to use a drug called clomid

Oddly light sometimes watery blood was typical of implantation bleeding for all my pregnancies.

Best to opk one week after the spotting. It would take a few days for the hormones to build up to give you a positive

Or even just wait till Thursday

Spotting has turned into proper period today though not as heavy as normal. Didnt expect to feel so disappointed
