So I did not track this month and we weren't actively trying. I was taking antibiotics during my fertile window. I'm honestly not sure if I ovulated as I didn't really get any ovulation pain but I did notice EWCM on CD14. We DTD on CD13, CD18 and CD24.
On CD25 I woke up and I was spotting a fair bit, enough for me to put on a pad, so I assumed AF was here earlier than expected. I was waiting for it to get heavier as normal, but it got way lighter over the next few hours. The next day I just had some blood tinged discharge, not even enough to need a pad. The day after that I woke up to a very light flow for a couple of hours, enough to fill 1/4 of a small pad, which then stopped again. And that was it, nothing more. There was no cramping, no back ache, no PMS, no sore boobs, none of the symptoms I normally get with my period.
The weird thing is, since the bleeding/spotting stopped 3 days ago I now have strong lower back pain, cramps, painful breasts and I really feel like my period is coming. So am I going to get my real period now?? What confuses me is why the spotting has disappeared... As I thought spotting normally leads up to a period, rather than separate. I have never had any mid cycle spotting, and normally only spot for a few hours before my period starts.
Of course, I have done about a million pregnancy tests and every single one is stark white negative.
Just wondering if anyone has experienced anything similar to this... any advice?
