Confused...any ideas/help

... currently TTC #1 and not sure whats happening this cycle?
Last period was on time and normal and afterwards DH and I baby danced a few times during my possible fertile period (according to my app, as didn't use opks this month). We also baby danced lots afterwards (good ol' holiday passion 😂).

Everything seemed to be normal, then had some brown spotting for a few hours on Monday eve (cycle day 24) but no other symptoms, and it had stopped by morning.
Started getting some mild cramps during the afternoon on cycle day 26 and a bit more brown discharge, but again - both stopped by the time I went to bed. All was fine the next day (cd 27) and what I think was AF (as she was due on 1st June) showed up on time - although only with very mild cramps, and (sorry if tmi) there was only a bit of red blood. Bleeding was sparse and today the tampon I used was half dry.

I'm really confused as since coming off the pill a year ago AF is pretty painful for me (I get cramps that wake me in the night and usually need a couple of ibuprofen to help) - however this time it was nothing like that.
I also usually bleed for 4-5days (not the 1 1/2 days I've had this time) with only the last day being brown spotting.

Not sure what to make if it all and whether ttcc is making me desperately symptom spot second guess all of this!?

Hey!! Have you taken a test??x

Hi @Smoochimoochi 🙂 ... No I haven't yet. Couldn't decide whether it was worth using my last frer test, as I didn't know whether I was over thinking it all?

Do you think what I had might not me AF then? I could always do a test tomorrow morning?

@MrsM2017 there is a possibility that you experienced heavy implantation bleeding. If you've not had further bleeding in a week I'd test to be sure.

Thanks @hidcat 🙂

Took a frer this morning with fmu and got a very clear bfn 🤔 no bleeding/spotting since yesterday morning either.

Guess my body is just playing tricks on me!?

Probably by the sounds of it. Sorry Hun. Was feeling very optimistic for you there.

MrsM2017 · 03/06/2018 23:48

Thank you - me too. Only cycle 7 or 8 got us though so trying to stay optimistic - thinking of trying the SMEP this month so we'll see 🙂
