TTC / implantation cramping/spotting or just af?

[ByLimeBear]

Hi all, I need your povs. We are ttc (since a few cycles, so not too long yet) but of course every cycle I hope to read the symptoms in the right way. This current cycle (I am 14 dpo right now) | had sunday, 11dpo, quite a back pain including uterine cramping and a light rosish/brownish spotting that still holds on slightly today. So l am not quite sure if I can think of implantation cramping and spotting. Or am I just wishing for it and I got my periods just earlier than usually and way less heavy? My af is usually pretty consistent arriving 14/15 days dpo (so it should actually arrive today) and quite strong the first 2 days with dark red colour and uterine cramping but no back aches. What do you think? Can I hope for a bfp in a few days or do I just interpret my af symptoms too much and I might just have had af pretty slight this time?

You can do a test today at 14dpo and if you're positive that will show. You don't need to wait.

Thanks for your reply. So in case 11dpo was implantation, I could already take a test today? I just didn’t want to get my hopes up and „risk“ another bfn

You could definitely choose to wait a couple of days if preferred but the majority will show positive by 14dpo. It's impossible for anyone to meaningfully comment on what the bleeding may have been because it's so individual.

sure thing. anyone, any cycle, any symptom is individual. just wanted to get some povs. Thanks for yours :)
