* WARNING TMI PIC* Implantion Bleeding??

[Katnissx]

Does this look like implantation bleeding? I had it after DTD today and had a little more of the same on a pad since.
I'm cycle day 26 of a roughly 30/35 day cycle, my app shows that I am due on in 5 days which is usually accurate. I do have irregular periods but I'm not usually this early.
I didn't manage to confirm ovulation this cycle so no idea if/when I have.
I've also had minor headaches every day for the last like four days which tend to be hormonal for me, as well as waking up in the night to pee! -Which was a sign with DS1.
Going to test in the morning, but I am currently struggling to sleep so thought I would post on here and see what people think! Realllllly hope not AF 🤞🤞🤞🤞

Cracked and did a FRER this morning and BFN 😞 does this mean I'm out?
@Mich2020 I would do the same if I didn't have OPKs haha, definitely a POAS addict 🙈

@Katnissx you're not out until you get AF X

@Blondeandbroody Thank you, I just can't help from feeling a bit disheartened 😞

@Katnissx I know lovely. I'm only on my first cycle so not had that BFN disappointment yet but I can sense how it will feel already.

I've been trying to make a list of positives if it doesn't happen this cycle and that really helps me prepare for the inevitable BFN X it won't stop me feeling disappointed no doubt but it will make it easier going into the next cycle

There are positives I swear x

But, this cycle isn't done til AF shows so fingers crossed 🤞🏻 xxxxx

I’m glad we DTD last night, because look at my OPK today . So I reckon I ovulated this morning ?

Cheapies turned up today. Done 2 different batches tonight and I think they are negative 👎🏼 will upload pics when it will let me xx

Really sorry you had a BFN @Katnissx
I hope that you get your BFP soon.
@ItsEmily I’m glad you’ve had responses on here and got the answers you wanted, but just a small thing, next time start your own thread, this thread is for the OP and sometimes they are discussing really upsetting things, chemical pregnancy etc, people can get really upset when you jump on their threads. I’m sure it’s fine this time but just for future reference.

@Budgetbride thanks will do. I did apologise yesterday and just felt like everyone was really welcoming and helpful . I’ll head off now . Thank you

Please don’t think I was being shirty it’s just I’ve seen people really get jumped on for it. There’s loads of group threads running :) good luck with everything x

@budgetbride no I don’t think you’re being shirty I am grateful you warned me , i didn’t even think so I’d rather you tell me now than me get jumped on . Thank you. Just full of emotions and wasn’t sure where to turn . Thank you x

Thanks for the replies.

@Blondeandbroody that's a really nice idea, I think I will write a list of positives tomorrow 🙂

Sorry to hear that @Mich2020, it's so hard seeing those BFNs 😣 Fingers crossed they turn to BFPs for us!

Did another IC just now with concentrated wee and was BFN, also did a OPK because what the hey! And it was fairly pink (not as dark as the control), no idea what that means though 🤣 I think my cervix feels lower which I don't think is promising, my CM is still EWCM though 😕 Will keep testing and see what happens! X

Also had another funny reading on my CB ovulation test a lot darker than yesterday's and still a blank circle so that's good but not taking lines as anything just going to see what happens over the next few days when either AF comes or fingers crossed a BFP. Will post both recent ones.
Ahh it's so hard isn't it, although I'm still testing early I think I'm 9dpo now, frer coming tomorrow so will hold off until Friday morning for that one.
Hope you get your bfp soon. Ive got a good feeling for you xx

@Katnissx I don't want to give you false hope but OPKs pick up pregnancy a lot sooner than pregnancy tests! I got a very positive OPK the day before period due.

Thanks @Shesalittlemadam , I actually found out I was PG with DS because I got a positive OPK three days in a row so did a pregnancy test and bam there it was!
However the last few months I was really confused with when I ovulated because the only time of the month I got a positive OPK I would start bleeding the next day/ two days later, so I started thinking I had a LH problem or something 😅 but after some looking into it I found out that your LH normally does surge a bit before AF comes on. I guess it could be a good indication though if I got a positive OPK and didn't start bleeding the next day 🤔 or maybe also if it continues being positive for multiple days like it did for DS?
Feeling less hopeful today really, another BFN on IC and the day before AF due. Also did another OPK which hasn't got any darker. Also feel like some of my 'symptoms' are lessening 😑
Thanks @Mich2020, I'm not so sure anymore 😣 hope your dark OPK is a good sign! Looks like we'll both be testing with FRERs tomorrow! X

@Katnissx
Yeah that’s how I found out I was pregnant with my DD. I was showing my DP how pregnancy tests work (yes, really! He’s pretty clueless about a lot of things!) we weren’t TTC or anything, just in conversation had discovered he thought it was a blood test! 🙈🤣 I’d bought ovulation tests by mistake when buying cheap pregnancy tests from pound shop (which I always keep in the bathroom, always have in case of sudden panic!) and bam! Very dark positive. Got hold of a pregnancy test later that day and it was super super faint.
Fingers crossed for you

@Shesalittlemadam wow what an amazing way to find out! Thank you 😊

@Katnissx It sounds like you’re just really early on 🤞🏻

Thank you, I really hope so 🤞

Have you tested this morning? Xx

Yep, BFN on IC (pic above) 😞 how about you? X

Much the same, ic negative. This is rubbish. Really thought I felt so much different this month too xx

Omg omg two lines on frer 😮😮😮😮

Omg no way!!!! Huge congratulations!! You were obviously right about feeling different this month! Hope I am too 🙈 xx

I'm scared, it's faint but there. I can't even upload a pic I'm at my limit. Got a clearblue for later and another frer for the morning. How long do you think for a digital one to come back? Eeek I have a good feeling for you xx

Don't be scared! A line is a line 😄 maybe try the digi tomorrow morning with FMU (or wait a couple days if it is the only one you have), I'd be tempted to do it right after getting a + on anything I think 🤣 have you tried doing a IC again yet? Would be interesting to see if it's showing up on there yet 🤔 upload a pic when you can 😄
Thank you, I so so hope so. My FRERs have just come funnily enough but I'm definitely going to hold off until the morning. So scared of another negative though 😞👎x
