Currently 5dpo and went to the toilet and wiped and had brown discharge will post a picture below and then it turned like a light pinkish colour. And got mild cramps on my left side. My AF is not due for another 10 days can anyone help this has never happened to me before never had any bleeding between cycles! Sorry the the picture if anyone is offended!

It maybe is implantation bleeding, right colour and amount but of course if it begins to go red and heavy i'd assume it was your period starting xx

Thank you for messaging, what about if it goes red but not heavy? I'm so confused 10 days just seems far to early for a period 😞 xx

If it gets dark and red then unfortunately it might be a chemical pregnancy.

I hope not, fingers crossed for you!

JadeShaw94 · 23/10/2022 10:32

what is a chemical pregnancy??

also update I’m still spotting/bleeding very light red/pinkish colour only really when I wipe tho and occasionally comes out in the toilet slightly when I have a wee I always use tampons for my periods but it’s nowhere near needing 1 this will be the 3rd day
so confused 😕
definitely don’t wanna get my hopes up

A chemical pregnancy is where the embryo doesn't implant properly and it miscarries.

If you need something, don't use a tampon because of a risk of infection. Use a pad.

overthinkersanonnymus · 23/10/2022 15:01

Why don't you do an actual pregnancy test 🤞🏻🤞🏻

JadeShaw94 · 23/10/2022 15:31

I did do one but it was negative, but I think it would be too early anyway, so I still have no idea. I’m just using panty liners. I don’t need a tampon nowhere near enough blood for that

JadeShaw94 · 24/10/2022 09:00

UPDATE the bleeding has stopped!

OP posts:
Batbatbatty · 24/10/2022 09:11

Do a pregnancy test in a few days but if that's negative then take the first day of bleeding as the first day of a new cycle.

JadeShaw94 · 24/10/2022 14:20

My period is due is 7 days so I’m going to wait until around that time I think, thank you 😊 I now just keep getting the occasional brown dot on my panty liner or when I wipe

OP posts:
JuniperandI · 24/10/2022 14:41

Hopefully that's just implantation bleeding! Fingers crossed for you.

JadeShaw94 · 24/10/2022 17:30

thank you, for your message, I don’t know what else it could be but I definitely don’t wanna get my hopes up! I’ve never had anything like this before either x

ME AGAIN
really hard to capture on camera. But me and my partner definitely see a second line but we think this could be an indent line. Can we get some second opinions please 🙏

That looks promising!

Starryskiesinthesky · 25/10/2022 03:41

There is definitely a line there!

overthinkersanonnymus · 25/10/2022 07:42

Definitely the start of a line!

JadeShaw94 · 25/10/2022 09:55

I think it could be an indent line because it’s so faint and can’t see any colour to it because it’s so faint. My period is still 6 days away so I think I’m gonna wait for that or test again in a couple of days! What do you guys think??
thank you for your replies 🙂

It looks very promising! Yeah definitely wait a few days then test with your first morning wee.

JadeShaw94 · 25/10/2022 11:54

Thank you. I spoke to the doctor and she honestly made me feel stupid for even thinking that it could be implantation told me if I’ve taken a test I would be positive by now even tho my period is not due until 31st and that it takes 6 weeks for implantation to happen I’m not sure how she worked that one out. And that she will leave some swabs out to check for infection what she means by that is sti which I definitely don’t have. And to just test again in 2 weeks 🙈 so she shattered any glimmer of hope that I had 😞

OP posts:
JuniperandI · 25/10/2022 15:49

Implantation doesn't take 6 weeks, and you're only 9 dpo so implantation may still happen (can take up to 12 dpo to implant). Not sure what this doctor is talking about.

JadeShaw94 · 25/10/2022 18:44

I’m not sure when I ovulated I believe it was the 12/13th but yeah the doctor confused me alot and made me feel rather stupid. So I guess it’s just a waiting game now and see if AF turns up in 6 days or I get a positive test come back 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
