Confused... IB or AF???

[dragonmummy17]

I am so confused. TTC DC2 and on cycle 3. My cycles are shorter... anything between 21 and 25 days. Not using opk but tracking using ovia app. AF due Weds (4th July) if on 25 day cycle

Last week Thursday and Friday I had pink spotting, Saturday evening had what I thought was the start of AF, very light but that's normal. Sunday I expected full AF which is usually medium to heavy flow. I had a very very light flow in the morning, like almost nothing then it's all stopped. Did a HPT this morning and got BFN.

So should I treat it as AF therefore this is a start of a new cycle? Or could this be implantation bleeding even with the BFN this morning? And if so how long til I retest?

Thanks everyone!

if it was a different kind of bleed to your usual af couldn't it be implantation bleed? I would get some cheap hpts and just do one a day with first wee of day. it might have been bfn because of your short cycle and not enough preggo hormone there to be picked up on the hpt yet? at the end of the day hpts are always bfn until they're bfps! sending lots of babydust your way x

Thanks! Need to order some ic. Then can retest in a few days. I was determined not to get obsessed with ttc but it's so difficult not to!!

urgh tell me about it! TTC number 1 and had two lines on a cheap hpt but am so sceptical about it since af is due in 3 or 4 days... just couldn't resist testing.
