Hi All, Looking for some peeps to maybe just give me a bit of advice and just to really confirm I'm not going crazy! I was on the Feb TTC thread and came off after I was neg I found it quite hard going through and seeing bfp's and my head just wasn't in it...

I'm currently approx 17 DPO (approx). By means of LH testing I peaked on CD 12 Ovulated CD 13 (18th of April, I stopped tracking LH on CD 13 as it had dropped down so assumed the CD12 was my peak, I usually keep measuring to make sure it was my "true peak" but I didn't this month).
From about 10/11 Dpo I've been feeling a bit 'off' but I assumed I was just symptom spotting or getting the old progesterone rise symptoms pre period...I have a very regular cycle 29/30 days so was due Saturday 4th or Sunday 5th (Today!)

Tested 11dpo with FMU on boots early response -ve.
Tested again on Wednesday night so 13dpo with a FRER but was in the evening, -ve again.

Thursday so CD27 I woke and had a tiny bit of bleeding just when wiping, a bit of light cramping put a tampon on for about 2 hours when going out but when I took it out it was only a little "brown". Put a pad on and there was literally the smallest amounts of blood nothing bright red or anything. Over Thursday Friday and Saturday I've had literally 1 pad on almost most of the day as there's been nothing really coming out! I tested again on Friday night with cheapies again and -ve.

I'm just really confused as i have endometriosis and although luckily my cycles are very regular, they are extremely heavy, I don't have spotting days before a bleed etc I very much have it come and its arrived full flow heavy clotty and very much filling pads multiple times a day. I completely dried up Friday night and I've not had a single thing even when wiping today apart from a bit of tinged CM jelly like.

I know it's TMI but I literally pulled my pads out the bin to just double check I wasn't going crazy and had actually bled more than I thought and I've attached some pics (ones top side of pads and ones underneath to see what actually soaked through)...but honestly this is NOTHING compared to my usual cycles. Has anyone else had this experience and eventually got a bfp? I see so many people get bfp's really early on and I'm so delighted for them but then I think surely there's some people out there that get them later? Am I clutching at straws here or anyone else had the same kinda thing? I was holding off to test again until tomorrow with FMU, could this have been that I implanted maybe around 10/11 dpo and it's just started to manifest as IB a couple of days later?

TIA to anyone who responds. Xxx

Could be some pre period spotting or could be implantation but there is no way of knowing for sure without a positive test.
i spot for a good 24-48 hours depending on the cycle and it varies from brown to pink to watery to cm and always ends in af

Thanks for getting back to me @MrBigsCat 🖤
I'm CD31 now and ive been completely dry since Friday night into Saturday. It's just very unusual for me as I don't spot before a period at all and like I said very much regular and heavy. I'm going to wait another few days and take another test, I last tested Friday night so CD 27 so surely if it was going to be a +ve it'll be apparent in the next few days.
Thanks again for your response xx
