Brownish discharge

So I am on day 23 of my cycle. Period ranges from 27-31 days, mostly 28-30 days. Expecting my period in about 6 days give it take a few days. Yesterday morning on day 22 of my cycle I went to the loo to find a brownish discharge on pants and more when wiping. Nothing for the rest of the day. Gone all day today and nothing. Just been to the loo now and found a small amount on my pantry liner. Only DTD once this cycle with DH on day 9 using condom which seemed like there were no issues with it. I have no pain. I started doing a lot more exercise about a week ago, could that be it? Any ideas or anyone had anything similar? I had an implantation bleed on day 26 with baby 1 that was like this. Nothing with baby 2. But surely it couldn’t be that on day 22. Day 9 would have been a fertile day for us but we used barrier. I used to do a lot of exercise and then barely any for the last 2 years. Do you think it’s that? Anyone else had anything like this around day 22/23?

Hi ! I’m experiencing similar to this. My period is due today but for the last 4 days I have been having brownish discharge on and off. Only a little on a panty liner but mostly when I wipe. I keep expecting AF to arrive but nothing ?! So confused. This has never happened before and my periods are normal regular and heavy.
It’s so confusing isn’t it Confused

Yes very. I’m guessing it isn’t pregnancy. It took us 5 months of really “trying” to get our baby so surely dtd once (we’ve had a busy month) and protected it’s unlikely to be an escape sperm and resulting baby, surely?! The only time I had this before was implantation with baby 1 but that was day 26. Maybe just a blip? I googled (shouldn’t have) and came across all sorts about progesterone etc

I guess it’ll be interesting if AF appears for you over the next few days. I’ve got a week to wait and see if everything starts as normal

Maybe as you had used protection it might just be a blip.
I didn’t bleed when I was pregnant with my son so don’t know what to think. You said you’ve experienced implantation before what was that like. I’m getting a little worried as not sure why it’s happening. Haven’t taken a test yet but may tomorrow x

So with baby 1 we weren’t TTC at all. My periods were 28/29 days. Day 26 I had some brownish coloured blood on pants and some on wiping. Nothing else at all. Did some googling which brought up implantation bleeding. Two days later on day 28 I did a positive test. Baby 2 which was planned I had no bleeding at all. When I saw this brownish stuff yesterday and it reminded me exactly of when I had the implantation bleed 7 years ago with baby 1. Although this cycle we have only DTD once and that was protected so it seems incredibly unlikely.

Periods have varied a bit since baby 2 but no bleeding this early. Also struggling over this last year with weight gain no matter how good I am with food or exercise. Worrying myself that there is something wrong with me because it surely can’t be implantation.

If there is any chance you could be pregnant it might be worth doing a test.

At least it feels less lonely someone else has had this happening too over the last few days.

So funny how it varies from each pregnancy with people. Maybe see it carries on and if you get your period. I wouldn’t worry too much (hard not to I know) I have done googling myself and it seems there are a lot of people asking the same questions so at least like you say we’re not the only ones.

I’m going to get a test tomorrow I think. We have been TTC for a few months now. I did think I might be as a week ago I was nauseous, emotional and tender boobs. But no I’m just tired and tender boobs still so unsure, and then I starting getting brown discharge and wrote this month off. It’s just so unlike me I NEVER have this so I’m worrying a little too x

user1472802695 · 26/04/2020 20:45

Well fingers crossed for you that it is implantation bleeding! Crossing fingers for a positive be test for you tomorrow then. As for me, no idea. If I was TTC I’d be assuming implantation or period starting.

For he at the minute though, no idea. Just more worry than anything
