Thanks @Malapropist. I’ve had absolutely nothing since. I even checked my cervix to see if there was any more after checking and all I got was creamy lotion like cm.
it’s bizarre as it’s not unusual for me to have spotting a day or two before af arrives but this wasn’t your usual spotting. the best I can describe it as is if you grazed your leg and dabbed it with a tissue, like that. But not bright red.

I really hope I’m lucky and that I’m one of the few experiencing implantation bleeding. I know each pregnancy is different but I just can’t shake the fact I’ve never had it like this before so surely it’s just af coming her way early!

MamOfFrankie · 28/10/2017 20:44

6dpo and absolutely no symptoms here :( gut feeling that I might be out this month, but there is no telling until af arrives on the 5th. Bleurgh.

ArtemisBean · 28/10/2017 21:26

Hopping on the November bus as AF is here with a vengeance!

Cycle 5
Ttc #1
Due 23rd Nov

Rapidly losing the will to live, but hoping for a better, brighter month and hopefully an early Christmas present! 😉 X

Owlpatrol · 28/10/2017 23:53

Me too @peterpanwendy I've had cramping since ovulation on and off and not due AF for a week but I'm worried it might be AF too soon to test for me though.
On a weird note I was really put off by wine tonight and had one drink

peterpanwendy · 29/10/2017 00:09

@Owlpatrol I’m paranoid mines all in my imagination or completely unrelated :( 1 more week to go and AF will tell!

Fia256 · 29/10/2017 06:40

Morning all. Another bfn today 10dpo so I’m 99% certain I’m out now. Zero blood since wiping yesterday though which is very odd. Time will tell as I’m out of tests!

Owlpatrol · 29/10/2017 07:29

Aww @Fia256 I'm still thinking it's your month esp with the blood (not that I've ever had it so sorry for in experience) out of interest you haven't cut yourself shaving or anything lol I ask because last week when I got what I think was ovulation blood I shaved the night before and can't be sure I didn't cut myself - crazy woman here! X

Fia256 · 29/10/2017 08:03

@Owlpatrol no definitely didn’t cut myself but I did wonder that as it was that sort of blood rather than spotting/af. I’ve just checked my cervix again this morning, I can barely reach it and it’s closed and soft so I really hope that’s a good sign!

Have you got many symptoms so far that are making you wonder? I’ve had the cramping too, it was actually the night before the bleeding yesterday, felt like period pain right in the lower centre of tummy! Fingers crossed for us both this month

Owlpatrol · 29/10/2017 08:07

Yes same here just the cramps and sore boobs which are different to af cramps more like a dull constanct ache that I've had since ov now 8 dpo. I also blubbed this morning on something on Instagram but that's it in terms of symptoms so far. Other than I feel I just know. But considering I've never had a bfp I could be just false hope.

Testing Tuesday could be a late Halloween treat!

DH wants to go on an epic dog walk today lol I know it's stupid but I want to "be careful" Confused

Merrz · 29/10/2017 08:14

Can I join? Af showed up this morning so November bus here I come.

TTC #1
Cycle #5 actively trying (8 with no contraception)
Age 29

Here's hoping this is a lucky month for everyone!

Fia256 · 29/10/2017 08:15

Ahh I really hope it’s your month! It sounds promising though! I wish I had your will power with waiting to test! I’ve just gone and ordered some more frer as they were free same day delivery! Every month I say I won’t do this!

Somethininthewater · 29/10/2017 09:02

Morning! Well, spotting/bleeding has stopped now. Was it just a dodgy period(like no other I’ve had in my 22 years of periods)?! Still bfn on IC yesterday. I’m 14dpo now. Debating whether to use my holy grail of tests, the FRER this morning. Is there much point?

Owlpatrol · 29/10/2017 09:04

Lol @Fia256 I think it's yours as well so fingers crossed for us both and hello to new ladies!
I only have will power because I have to travel to get a test quite far. Although I could order online I suppose! But the disappointment from previous months helps me wait. Plus also I love surprises! Plus also I'm quite spiritual (not religious) and that's helped me this month to have faith xx

LostMyBaubles · 29/10/2017 09:16

Owl defo understand what you mean about being careful
Hopefully fx it's your month this time

Fia hopefully it's just a little early for you to test

Welcome to the newbies

PabloEscobarlo · 29/10/2017 20:04

So confused! Think we’ve just had a very very faint positive but we don’t know how many dpo I am, due on 3/4 November

LostMyBaubles · 29/10/2017 20:13

Very faint positive is still a positive
Do another in the morning to confirm
Congrats!

lindypops33 · 29/10/2017 20:44

@pablo that's great news! See how it is in the morning, maybe post a pic.
I am feeling disheartened and fed up. I haven't been trying that long to be fair but when youre younger you're led to believe that you can get pregnant any and every time!!!!! Sigh. I caved and did a couple of cheapies, line eyes led me to believe I could see a faint line but I think I'm just seeing what I want to see. 😞

PabloEscobarlo · 29/10/2017 20:49

Thank you

@lindypops33 that’s how I feel, especially as I feel I don’t know what I’m doing still re opk and bbt. I have tummy ache and back ache and tingling right boob however but could be af on its way. I’m wondering if we can see it because we want to if that makes sense, we did a lot of positioning in the light!

LostMyBaubles · 29/10/2017 21:37

The mind plays horrible tricks sometimes

Foreverretro · 29/10/2017 23:54

Keep reminding myself that it’s definitely worth DTD before getting a positive OPK... waiting for one is just as bad as the bloody TWW! I’m really hoping that mine comes tomorrow or Tuesday... this is the first month I’ve done the so it seems just exciting as a pregnancy test somehow! Confused

Fia256 · 30/10/2017 06:26

I’m getting so so fed up now!

11dpo today. I wasn’t going to test this morning as I’d had the usual for me pre af spotting start (brown) all yesterday, and I normally come on through the night/next day after I get that. I’d sobbed a good hour last night feeling sorry for myself but then accepted it.

Temped this morning to check that temps will have dropped, but no. Temp was way higher than it’s been all month Hmm I then decided to check cervix before I go and waste another test (any hope and I’m poas it’s ridiculous) and i could barely reach it, was closed tight and no blood. so that then prompted me to do another test and it’s still a bloody bfn!! I just want to scream!!

If the small short bleed I had two days ago was implantation bleeding then surely by now a bfp would appear. And if it isn’t then I wish af would just arrive and put me out of my misery!!!

Sorry to rant I’m just sick of it not being a simple yes or no

Somethininthewater · 30/10/2017 06:34

Annoying as hell isnt it!! I’m now 15dpo...has a very weird/light ‘period on 10/11 and some of 12dpo so I’ve no idea if I should keep my hopes up or not?!

PabloEscobarlo · 30/10/2017 06:47

I’m getting frustrated too.
Thought I could see something but think it’s my eyes!

Fia256 · 30/10/2017 07:00

@Somethininthewater have you taken a test yet?

@PabloEscobarlo I can’t see anything in the first pic but second one I don’t know if I can or not. I had that with those clear blue last month though and I wasn’t pregnant. I really hope it’s the start of a bfp for you!

PabloEscobarlo · 30/10/2017 07:03

It’s so frustrating as I don’t know how many dpo I am as no opk and erratic temp this nor the. Grrrrrr
