Cramping and spotting is this implantation?

Hi guys I didn't properly track my cycle this month. Last period was 5th and I'm due again in 5 days on the 4th January. Today I've started spotting and have some light cramping. I'm usually like clock work and haven't had this before that I can remember. Could this be implantation?

How funny, I last came on on the 6th and I’m due on on Sunday 3rd. Sunday just gone I started having cramps and got brown stuff in my knickers. It only lasted 2 days (though the cramps are still there a bit but they have subsided) and now today I have creamy CM. Really not sure what to make of it all but I wondered the same thing as you re implantation.

Aw fingers crossed eh! I'm getting negative tests will try again in the morning. I'm still slightly crampy dunno what to think!

I’m getting negative tests too Sad I got woken up at 4am early hours Monday morning though due to horrendous cramping, I, half asleep managed to take a couple of ibuprofen but even after that, it still took another hour for the pain to subside. Fully expected a blood bath yesterday morning when I went to do FMU....but nothing. I don’t understand how I could have had such intense, painful cramps and ...nothing? That’s never happened to me before, ever. And now all AF symptoms have pretty much subsided. I ovulated early this cycle too, CD11 so I would have thought AF would be early, so around today?

I don’t know what to think, I guess all we can do is keep testing and/ or wait and see it AF arrives.

That is so strange! Are you testing again in the morning? I really hope it's good news for us 🤞

@PukkaBooks, I had what I thought was a faint BFP yesterday morning but got more cramps and v light spotting again last night. Tested again this morning and I was a definite BFN Sad

I can only assume AF is coming, but like you, not in a normal way for me at all! I never cramp and get tiny bits of spotting, I cramp and then that’s it, along comes AF. I had brown discharge and horrendous cramps last Sunday and still never came on so god knows. Only 3 months in to out TTC journey and I already feel over it all tbh. Such a clusterf*ck of an emotional roller coaster!

I’ll keep fingers crossed for you that AF doesn’t show!

It's just horrible isn't it when you get false hope like that! Especially when you're so in tune with your body and see these changed as a good sign!

My period has been horrible, really heavy flow and longer cramps than usual. Don't know what's going on!
