Bleeding Post Ovulation: New to this!

Hi all

I'm total newbie so apologies if I get all the acronyms wrong!

Short history: DH and I started TTC May 2015...two months later and without any warning I was diagnosed with kidney failure: 1 year on life saving dialysis and 2017 my awesome friend gave me a kidney and a new life. Things going great and 1 year post transplant my nephrologist has changed my meds to pregnancy friendly and given us the greenlight to try.

Now at 37 I'm worrying we've left it too late but noticed a month after transplant that I started ovulating again (I had stopped on dialysis) as noticed CM: gave me hope things were moving in the right direction!

This is our first month TTC. Although I didn't have the OPK (is that right) in time to test, knowing my cycle, I'm sure I ovulated Saturday 18th. DTD a few times either side of that day. OPK arrived Monday and test showed very faint positive which I assume was the tail end post ovulation as CM reduced.

This morning I've noticed brownish blood...not much or enough for tampon but in need of panty liner.

I can't find anything on this. It's not a normal part of my cycle (I'm 12 days away from AF). I'm pretty regular. 28 day cycle, fertile days 10-16ish.

As this is new and first month we're trying, wondering if it's signalling something or if I'm just clutching!!

Sorry for such a long post!

Thanks so much for your reply and massive congratulations!

I'm now really confused as I still have slight brown bleeding which is tapering off but just did another ovulation test which looks positive.

Left was yesterday and right today.

So perhaps I didn't ovulate already and today is the day?

So new to this and it's all so confusing Confused
