Spotting from 4dpo... help!!

Hi all! I've been spotting from 4dpo and am currently 9dpo. Has anyone gone on to have a BFP with a similar situation? I've posted my bbt chart below too. TMI the spotting is dark brown and a small amount of red and only when wiping.

There's a significant dip before your charted ovulation date, could there be a chance maybe you're 11dpo? I'd definitely test incase, especially as your temps are still really high which is good!

Bp1993 · 28/02/2021 21:42

Thank you for replying! I've just tested and bfn :( I'm worried the 6 days of spotting me mean something wrong but I'll test again tomorrow.

@bp1993
Im hoping to get a BFP, currently 12dpo and getting bfns. Spotted from 5dpo until 11dpo (brown only when I wiped) I will keep you updated over the coming days

Also had lots of other symptoms
Fingers crossed xx

Bp1993 · 01/03/2021 22:01

@lelrx so good to hear from someone in a similar situation!! Fingers crossed we both get our BFP.
Yes, keep me updated! I'm testing again tomorrow morning xx

@bp1993 I did a FRER this morning and bfn
Not going to test tomorrow as I've ran out of tests, AF is due on 4th so I might just wait and see if it arrives, fed up of doing tests especially if I'm not pregnant! Xx

I've had this for the last 6 months since coming off the pill, unfortunately it usually means a low progesterone level after ovulation. Last month was the first month I didn't spot until 11dpo and I took pregnacare for the first time.

Hi @Bp1993 I'm in a similar situation been spotting as I'm currently 4dpo (has never happened before) but I don't do BBT and have long way to go until I test!

Hope you get the results you want x

Bp1993 · 02/03/2021 06:39

@ReginaPhilangeeeI was thinking it might be low progesterone, normally I spot for 2 days before AF. I might speak to the doctor about it if I don't get mt BFP this month. Its good to know pregnacare helped you! Has it lengthened your cycle? I hear it can do that

lelrx it's disheartening getting BFN all the time isn't it.
This morning I had a temp drop (still above coverline) and I'm still spotting. Has your spotting stopped? So I'm thinking AF is on her way.
My test looked like it had a vvfl within the 5 minutes so I'll test again tomorrow, I don't trust it! It wasn't a FRER, just an Internet cheapie.

@Mysleepingangel thank you. I hope you do too! Fingers crossed xx

@bp1993 my spotting stopped Saturday night so lasted 7 days in total, I did read a thread online of a woman who spotted (sounded like my situation) and she got a BFP

I'm not sure if I have low progesterone, I've only had spotting once before and it was 4 days leading up to AF in january hadn't had sex in the ovulation window that month whereas I have this month

If I don't get a BFP then atleast I know that's a potential cause
I don't have any tests so I'm not testing today, AF due on Thursday so might just wait xx

Bp1993 · 02/03/2021 12:48

@lelrx that sounds really positive!
Yes if you don't get a BFP then maybe call the doctors and see if you can get a test to check your progesterone levels xx

Hi @Bp1993 my spotting has stopped and now it is reduced to (tmi!) stringy cm Blush

Still have back pain. Don't know what to make of my symptoms other than wait, which is tough!!

lelrx · 03/03/2021 08:35

I woke this morning with dull pains in my right side and backache, also slightly tender boobs I swear I don't usually get this before my period 🙄 anyway did a Co op test but bfn, not sure if I've got line eyes or I see the faintest line 😂 I give up, AF due tomorrow so I'm just going to wait for that now

Mysleepingangel · 03/03/2021 17:51

Good luck @lelrx for tomorrow hopefully you get a bfp!
I've just ordered the Internet cheapies because the tests I've rn are very expensive CB ones 😂not gonna spend 4 quid on a test which will likely be negative

lelrx · 04/03/2021 09:05

Thank you @mysleepingangel no AF as of yet, I don't have any tests so so im holding off testing today and tomorrow then if AF doesn't arrive I will do another, I'm pretty convinced I'm pregnant, I dunno though. Also my dog will not leave me alone 😂 she was like it the last time I was pregnant too, so strange
Xx

Mysleepingangel · 04/03/2021 21:20

@lelrx when is af due?

I did a test today 🙈 of course it was negative but I'm quite certain I'm pregnant. I don't know how, I just feel it.

Maybe it's just all in my head 😂

I think I'll test on Sunday at the earliest now.

Good luck for tomorrow and let us know!

lelrx · 04/03/2021 21:29

@mysleepingangel no AF today and I don't think it's coming tomorrow either I'm pretty certain I'm pregnant, my whole attitude is that I am and I'm planning my life around it, it's so weird but like you say could all be our heads! I don't know what to do about testing, I feel really chilled about it x

Mysleepingangel · 04/03/2021 21:38

@lelrx yhh I get you.

I think I'll feel more confident if my af was due tomorrow like you.

I dunno, I'll see what's happening by weekend. I wish I was chilled like you 🙈
I would need to know ASAP if I am pregnant as I'll be high risk so would need to contact my consultant.

Ah so complicated!

ReginaPhilangeee · 04/03/2021 21:40

@Bp1993 sorry I hadn't seen that you'd replied! No, it hasn't lengthened my cycle, it has lengthened my luteal phase though!

lelrx · 04/03/2021 23:02

@mysleepingangel when Is your AF due lovely? X
