This is our second month of trying for our second baby. My period arrived this morning well 6 days early. Is this normal to anyone else? Has it happened to anyone else?

Is it as heavy as a period? Could it be implantation bleeding?

babysunshine20 · 23/08/2017 22:18

It's now finished. Lasted 2 full days. Very strange. No cramps or pain either.

Confused I haven't a clue- only thing I can think of is implantation bleeding but two days is a long time. ....maybe do a test in a few days? Sorry not very helpful

I have a theory that TTC messes our cycles up. Lots of people on here get weird things when TTC after normally being like clockwork

anothernameinnit · 23/08/2017 23:57

I think that too Alexs!

Cherrytart6 · 23/08/2017 23:59

Was it light?

It could be implantation bleeding. I thought it was a period and also lasted 2-3 days. I definitely needed pads, in plural. Give it 5 days and test just in case. Or it could be failed implantation. I would definitely recommend ovulation sticks, eBay are fine. Get to know exactly when you ovulate. They send you a chart and a digital thermometer with some, I got that and managed to get pregnant quite quickly after months and months of trying. I discovered that I didn't ovulate in day 14, which would mean TTC on days 11-15 (counting from first day of last period). Instead, I ovulated on day 17-18, which meant I should had been TTC on days 14-19. I was giving myself a 1 Day window every month. Once I figured this out, I went for the days required and it happened quite quickly. I also had a short lutean phase (from ovulation to period), so the egg needed to implant really quickly or my period would start before it reaches the uterus. Both times I had "short periods" before having my positive.

Did a test and got a positive!!!!!!!
so I'm hoping it was implantation? Will take another test in a weeks time to see what happens x

It's ok everyone, I dont need to upload a photo anymore Yes I'm on the mobile app site. Thank you everyone, we are so happy!!! Can't believe it. I was just shocked as I was bleeding on the Tuesday. So i am hoping that it was implantation bleeding.Decided to take a Clear blue test and it said PREGNANT. Still can't believe it. I am still worried in case it could still be a chemical pregnancy.

I had the same, 2-3 days of bleeding actually! Congratulations!

BethJ34 · 17/09/2017 15:07

I'm also 6 days early on my period but I don't think it's as heavy so far it's lasted 2 days.. had ovary pain yesterday in the morning and a tiny bit cramp? Am I pregnant or not? Don't want to take a test as it may be to early..

Mumof3cheeky · 17/09/2017 19:45

If it's implantation bleeding and it has finished your hormone level should start to rise within 24-48hrs so you could try and test. Good luck x

Jadepearsall83 · 15/07/2018 10:50
