Can anyone explain to me?
I've had implantation bleeding before but my youngest is almost 4 now so kind of forgotten.
I've had some cramping today but not for long then this early evening I went to the toilet and on wiping there was some red blood stain on tissue. However not thick. I panicked I was coming on so went to the shops to prepare and on every trip since had nothing.

What is this likely to be? Full on period starting or implantation?

I honestly can't remember implantation but equally confused nothing since for a period.

From what Inread on here implantation bleeding can be anything from a few drops of pink or brown to a fair bit of red - at least you’ll know very soon, fingers crossed it’s IB.

Still no more this morning.

I had this today after cramping and af not due for over a week. was literally the smallest amount and bright red. hoping it's implantation but can't test until 8th I don't think

Have you tested?

Zoeox · 02/01/2019 20:16

I've not tested. Had nothing this morning, but later this afternoon I went and on wiping had some bright red. Put a pad on and nothing, on going since its been like a brown colour so I'm not sure what's going on but was positive it was a period. 🤔

It’s frustrating when you don’t know what’s going on isn’t it? I keep checking but nothing since the one occasion hopefully you will know for sure soon!

I had a bit of a stain on the day my period would have been due, then nothing for two days, then more staining on third day then full bleed for one day....but no BFP at all.

Just assumed it was a weird period.

Sessy19 · 03/01/2019 19:06

^and not had any period like it before. (Posted early, soz!)

Always dead on time and exactly as I’d expect: 4days, heavy for 2nd day, rest just light and unremarkable.

Sometimes Mother Nature is just a bitch, I’m afraid.

Have you tested?

NeverStopExploring · 03/01/2019 20:16

I haven’t tested but I had one random bleed and af isn’t due until a week Sunday but wasn’t a lot at all. Can’t test yet as it’s too early. Probably mother nature’s punishment for me stuffing my face with so much food over Christmas haha

Zoeox · 03/01/2019 23:07

I've no idea when my period would be due.
I've not tested either yet. Tempted to tomorrow but scared of the disappointment again if its negative.
More brown occasionally on wiping but nothing on a pad. Why can't mother nature just give us a clear answer and not mess us around.

Testing today with FMU and strongly negative... Guess it's a period of some kind then.

Sorry to hear that Zoeox - it seems our bodies lose the plot once we ttc.

NeverStopExploring · 04/01/2019 19:49

Sorry to hear you didn’t get the result you want. So frustrating symptoms are similar for pregnancy and AF and our bodies seem to play us up when ttc Sad

Zoeox · 04/01/2019 21:13

Just wishing it would be a clear period. Still nothing come from it. Bit of brown earlier on wiping but nothing. Guess my body isn't sure either.
