Hello, I've been TTC for 7 months now, my period was due tomorrow but I had some weird light brown and pink bleeding for 5 days this week. It was very light and sometimes not there at all, it could also be a bit (TMI) stringy/Gloopy, which I wouldn't have thought was implantation bleeding?
I've been feeling nauseous for a few days and took some tests yesterday and today all.with faint lines, see below.
Anyone any experience with this? Does it seem like a chemical pregnancy?
FYI the third test down in multiple pic I realised I only held in pee for 10 instead of 20 seconds when I re read the instructions. 🙈

Oh I see. By LMP you're 4 + 4 but if you're 15dpo you're 4 +1.

It's kind of irrelevant because your dating scan at 12 weeks will give you a more accurate EDD. Just ignore me lol!

It's all a mystery getting pregnant, my dating scans last time were a nightmare, too small for a long time so brought back for multiple scans then too big right at the end so was induced and went on to have a perfectly Avery sized 7lbs 1oz baby 🙈🙈🤷🤷

Congratulations OP.

That's really good news!

(BTW you're 4 weeks and 1 day if you're 15dpo)

A common misconception - 1dpo is exactly two weeks pregnant, so 15dpo is exactly 4w0d. Smile

Your lines look great OP, congratulations!

No. 14dpo is exactly 4 weeks pregnant.

BlueLozenge · 20/02/2024 15:26

It's not.

Let’s say you have a perfect 28 day cycle with ovulation on textbook day 14. This is what all dating calculators work on. So, to give a worked example: the first day of your last period was Monday December 18th, and you ovulated on Sunday December 31st (CD14). On Monday 1st January, you are 1DPO, but classed as two weeks pregnant, because you are not counted as one day pregnant until CD2.

Therefore, on Monday 15th January, you would be expecting your period and to be on CD1 again. However, you are pregnant, at 15DPO and so you are 4w0d exactly. It may be easier to understand if you put the actual date examples in a calculator and see what it gives you. Smile

BlueLozenge · 20/02/2024 15:36

Or - let's pretend I am 15dpo today, on that textbook 28 day cycle with ovulation on CD14. That would mean the first day of my last period was 23rd January and I ovulated on 5th February (CD14). Pop that date into a calculator and it's 4 weeks pregnant. Now let's pretend I am 16dpo today, with the first day of my last period as 22nd January, and - 4 weeks and 1 day today.

I work in this field and one of the biggest unnecessary heartbreaks I see, is women not understanding how the dating system works. They often think they are much further along than they are and so can be very upset at early scans thinking that something is wrong - when it isn't, it's just that we haven't conveyed the message very well on how the dating system actually works. Therefore, it's a passion of mine to try to spread the word wherever possible! Smile

Take care OP and very best of luck with your pregnancy! Flowers

Looks great!! Congratulations! I'm feeling ok just a bit more tired than usual and a bit nauseous but nothing unmanageable, it's nice to have some symptoms though it feels reassuring 🩷 how are you feeling?

My bleeding went from pink to really rusty coloured sometimes it was enough to make me think I was getting my period and other times it was barely there! Hopefully you get a positive on a digital soon!
