Too late for ovulation bleeding?

[Rockape1992]

Last night I had a tiny streak of red blood in my cm after a bowel movement. Today I’ve had more, it got a bit heavier, some dark red bleeding and then back to very light pink watery. Any ideas what this could be? According to OPK I ovulated CD14 and it’s now CD17. I often get spotting before AF but this seems very early as AF not due for another 11 days... Does anyone have any ideas? Should I rule myself out again for BFP this month? Thanks ladies

:( sort of in your shoes... Had bleeding in my pee today in the morning when I took a #2 and it freaked me out. Not sure what this means. I had early ovulation this month cd10-11 and today is CD12 so not sure if this is ovulation bleeding or what? I never had it before and I'm pretty sure I saw some tissue. Ugh... Fingers crossed for both of us this month is not a write off....

I heard that you can sometimes have a little blood if ‘straining’ like when you have a number 2 or do strenuous activity but mine has gotten worse since rather than tail off although 24 hours later it is lighter. Don’t know what to think. Too late for ovulation in my opinion and too early for implantation (and defo too early for AF) so no idea what to think. I had spotting before getting my bfp with my DS but as I remember it was later in my cycle and more dark brown and stringy than browny red and pink but I can’t remember 100%. I hate how cruel our bodies can be to us when ttc. I never had any of this drama or self torture with DS, I know I was very lucky, but it’s pure hell dealing with this ttc drama!

I also ovulated late this month according to OPK - I usually ovulate around CD12 and this month was CD14. Not sure if taking too much EPO or a course of acupuncture caused it but might have had an impact. Have you had any more bleeding since this morning @VixFromThe6ix ?

@Rockape1992 I am so with you on the cruelty. Sometimes I think my own body is against me. I have no babies yet and I would love at least one, but we are having troubles. Two lost pregnancies.
Trying and trying... And my body just keeps doing weird sh*t that confuses the hell out of me.
I haven't had any bleeding since, but this isn't making me feel good at all. Quite the opposite.
I keep reading that spotting can be caused by so many things. So maybe what you're having isn't anything to worry about? I heard even hormonal imbalance can cause bleeding.
Just weird... I am so exhausted tbh. I hate that others are going through all this as well. I come here to have someone to relate to cause it can be so lonely trying to deal with this...
Big big hugs for you. And crossing all my fingers and toes that you're alright

I feel your pain. I know we are so lucky to already have our son, but I do desperately want to give him a sibling and it just doesn’t seem to be happening. First time round was a one shot wonder and this time, we’re 8 months down the line and nothing! I know it’s not a huge amount of time in the grand scheme of things and lots of women have to struggle on for a lot longer, but it feels like forever to me. I cry sometimes looking at DS as I’m so afraid I’ll never be able to give him a sibling. I feel like since we started ttc, my body has been all over the place - short cycles, long cycles, weird spotting and bleeding all colours of the rainbow at all different times during my cycle, pregnancy symptoms swiftly followed by AF, heavy periods, light periods, periods that stop and start. It never ends does it? I know what you mean about having someone to relate to, DH tries his best but he doesn’t really understand just how crushing and soul destroying the disappointment every month is. At least the other ladies on here can relate. How long have you been ttc? I feel like we’ve tried everything, I’ve had multiple bloods, scans, hysteroscopy, D&C, husband is having SA next week. I’ve tried preseed, EPO, omega 3, OPKS, the SMEP method, I’ve tried everything and nothing seems to work! I get you when you say it’s exhausting. I’ve totally gone off sex as been having way too much of it, and it’s way too perfunctory to be enjoyable. Ttc consumes my every waking thought and I feel so guilty all the time as I don’t feel like I’m being present enough for DS1. I really hope you get that baby soon, I will be keeping everything crossed for you and sending you hugs to get through all the crap! Xxx

Sorry I just reread your post and must missed have missed that you’ve lost two pregnancies. I’m so sorry for your losses. It’s heartbreaking and I can’t imagine how difficult that must have been. My heart goes out to you @VixFromThe6ix xx

@Rockape1992 how you're feeling resonates so well with me. This consumed all my thoughts. My partner is so supportive but he can't relate to what emotional and physical rollercoaster I am on.
I want to assume 92 is your birth year, I am an 83 baby, so I feel like I'm so on my last years for this. The pressure is insane.... Pressure I am putting on myself.
We got pregnant exact two yrs ago shortly after we stopped protecting. We had a loss at 6 weeks. It took a toll on me and I spent a year refusing to try again. So summer 2020 we started trying again and in August of 2020 we get pregnant. Only to get another loss at 6 weeks. So in November of 2020 is when I took the pills as my body was not miscarrying.
January we had our first consultation with the fertility doctor. We took all the tests (18 bikes of blood 😱). I did the ultrasounds and did the one where they went into my tubes or something. All came back great. Only thing was my prolactin is high-ish. Taking pills for that now.
My period has been weird so they also put me on progesterone taken in vaginally. So that's been my last couple of months. Pills into every opening. Peeing on sticks. Sex on schedule. Disappointments. Emotional lows. Now my follicular phase is short so it may need to get addressed.
I wanna just say FK it but I actually can't afford to cause of my age.... I can't waste any more time.
I wish you get your second baby. It's amazing that you're thinking about giving your first born a sibling. Don't feel bad about how you're feeling, you're doing it for him.
Thank you for this chat... I needed it. And I'm sending you all my positive thoughts and energy.

Oh my love, what a time you’ve had. You poor thing, life can be so cruel at times and to people who really don’t deserve it. Try to stay positive, I know how hard it is, but what is there if we don’t have hope? I know it’s easy to feel hopeless and believe me, I’ve felt hopeless plenty of times in the past 8 months or so, but we have to believe that our time will come. I’m actually an 86 baby so I’m not that far behind you. I totally know what you mean about feeling like time is short. Turning 35 in Jan this year really felt like an unpleasant milestone and since then, I’ve felt the pressure ramp up tenfold and have been stressing so much about my age. There must be so many women like us out there going through this hell and it seems so unfair that others just seem to pop them out no problem. I could have killed my SIL when she announced her second pregnancy and said she didn’t even really want a second child! Thank you for the chat too. Ttc can be so lonely and distressing and it’s reassuring to know I am not alone and others are on this scary and unpredictable journey with me. I hope and pray you get your baby soon, you deserve to be a mummy and it sounds like you will be an amazing one when your time comes. Stay strong and keep smiling. Do let me know if you get your bfp, I will keeping everything crossed for you xxx
