Already posted this in pregnancy but didn't see the conception thread so I'm posting again.
Hi! I'm completely new here, had to Google to find out how to even start a thread 🙃
I am ttc my second, not been trying long, it was just a short discussion with my Fiance when I stopped bf and he said he is happy to start trying to conceive a second so I didn't opt for any contraception. We want them close together in age.
Couple of weeks after stopping bf my 8 month old, I thought I should get some ovulation tests for after af arrives so I can keep track, but when af arrives she is not normal.
I always had a long cycle, from 34 to 39 days so also irregular, but one thing I could count on was it being painful, heavy, and lasting 8-9 days.
Instead of my normal flow I have been having super light flow, not enough to fill a pantyliner. TMI but it started brown, and has tapered off to a watery pinky brown.
It's still going but it's not constant at all, I get my spotting around midday, tiny amount and that's it for the day.
Had very minor cramps, and to be honest I was expecting quite a large period since it's my first one in 8 months since giving birth so Im thrown. Not really sure what to think but the thought crossed my mind as I had imp bleed with my first, but it didn't last thing long and thought maybe it's lasting longer because I have excess uterine lining I haven't shed?
Honestly no clue but I'm not testing until after my birthday on the 14th so I've given time for hcg to build (if that is what this is, kinda doubt it but wanted to float the idea in case anyone experienced something similar?).
I'm basically waiting to see if it turns red but it is so light and has been for 5 days so I think I'm convinced it could go either way at this point but any ideas or experience is welcomed!
