I have always been irregular, but since having ds I have been regular - generally at the end of the month. This has been for 6 months (ds is 13 months)

Well, last period started the 5th of feb, then on the 24th I had a bleed (enough for a tampon), then 25th nothing, 26th a bleed (again, enough for a tampon), then nothing since.

What is this? has my cycle gone back to being irregular? If I am late this month do I test? Does that count as spotting?

please, any advice??

i would do a test could be spotting or implantation bleeding though it might be early to test when are you due af?

If your cycles have always been irregular in nature theny can often revert back to becoming irregular over time. These problems are often caused by hormonal imbalances - some possible causes are thyroid imbalance, polycystic ovaries or its related syndrome PCOS.

I would have a word with your GP about the bleeds you've had. Often the cause is not serious but it is worth getting this checked out medically.

I have been irregular since I first started - if I plot it on a calendar, it looks like a flicked a leaky pen at it - totally random. But we still (somehow)managed to conceive ds.

with my cycle becoming more regular, I thought it would be easier to ttc for dc2.

havent got my diary to hand, but think I should be due on about the 5th March or so..
