Hello, TTC 9mths, you could have set your clock by my cycles i used app for 8mths and they were always smack on times, i always spot brown blood with cramps few days before af so i always know when she is coming. I got my last af on 29th June, post intercourse about 3 days when af was gone i had spotting for about a week, had pregnancy symptoms during that TWW, so my next period was due 23rd as i have always had short cycles 23-24 day cycles but that period never came, all this time i was getting BFN's, i put missing this period down to having the long spotting, so I did opk to see if i was O after my missed period just out of curiosity and the test showed a flashing smiley face for 3-4 days, this synced with my app which said i was about to ovulate, so we did BD at that time, so pregnancy symptoms: very sensitive and sore breasts with the last period on 29th June which continues for about 4 weeks and stopped around the time i was due my second period 23rd (the sore breasts not the nipples but the breasts), dizzy when i stand up too quick low BP in gp surgery 80/50 followed by BFN, nausea also but at random times. Anyway while waiting for my next period which according to my app is due 14th August i started to spot again, well on the 6th just gone i got one small amount pink cm on underwear TMI sorry nothing else, then on the 8th afternoon small amount brown cm followed by af type cramping felt like she was coming, then started bleeding bright red blood which came on very quickly with cramping to the right side then left then lower middle all over the place and so confusing, so i was so disappointing i thought it was af for sure, so bright red bleeding for Friday at evening the cramps eased off, Saturday morning i woke up feeling great no cramps, bleeding had lightened, cramping were not as bad as af type cramps, also had dull ache down left groin and thigh i know crazy so many symptoms and strange, so Saturday evening bleeding became a little heavier but still not as heavy and checked tampon before going to bed and it was almost dry, so i woke up Sunday morning bleeding stopped just as fast as it had arrived just tiny spots in underwear in morning and nothing after that. Usually cramps last 3 days and i have to take analgesic and i always bleed dark red purple blood, there were no clots just bright red blood for 2 days and then nothing. I know this is confusing and complicated but it really happened, what a roller coaster but I am trying not to worry, I am a laid back kinda gal lol. Sorry for long story.

Also checked cervix few days before the bleeding on 8th and it was high hard and closed, just wondering if anyone has had this type of bleeding and still got bfp afterwards.

Yes its possible! I had a 3 day normal period, I bled as normal back in February tested and was negative.so went on to Have cervical treatment the next week. found out 3 weeks later I was 9 weeks pregnant. I would suggest testing a week or so later as mine didnt show up straight away. Hope that's helps :)

LittleJellyBean23 · 12/08/2019 18:49

Hi Missmil, thanks so much for your reply, that reassures me, still not spotting or bleeding but woke up this morning with a terrible cold, I never get cold, well it's been a long time since I got a headcold, stuffy nose, mucous , lots of sneezing and slight headache, so I'll wait it out the week to test and thanks again, fingers crossed I'll update when I know more.

I'm interested as well. AF not due until Wednesday but I thought she'd arrived early yesterday (4 days early much shorter luteal phase than normal ov checked with OPK). Not like a normal period so far mainly brown (tmi!!! With only some watery red

LittleJellyBean23 · 12/08/2019 22:18

Hi MrsH497, yes my bleeding was about 7 days too early, I usually spot few days before af and I always know when she coming so this odd 2/12 day bleeding took me totally by surprise, it was red and watery but enough to fill a few pads, cramping was different too only lasted from thursday evening and friday had no pain Saturday morning when I woke up then mild cramps soreness Saturday afternoon and by Saturday night it was all stopped including the bleeding , Sunday like nothing ever happened, that's so strange for me, woke up this morning with a headcold, it's been years since I got a cold so all very weird, I'm due af 14th and I know she wont show because I have nil PMS symptoms whatsoever, im gonna test again in the morning just because I have a few cheap pregnancy tests but I think Missmil above is right I probably wont get a positive until maybe next week, I remember testing on my DS 25 years ago and it came back negative, went to the doctor few weeks later and I was over 12 weeks pregnant, that was a big shock!! Brown is good and apparently implantation bleeding can be red too so best of luck, keep us updated 😊

Thanks @LittleJellyBean23 I go between grumpy that af is early or then a glimmer of hope that my 🌈 May happen I'll keep you updated keep us updated with you as well x

LittleJellyBean23 · 13/08/2019 09:52

MrsH497 hi again, I really hope this is our month, no update really, I'm due af tomorrow but no sign of her, I have that terrible headcold and flu symptoms so I'm going out to get sudafed as I think that's the safest option incase I'm pregnant, I'll hold out a few more days before I test again and I'll update then.

Hey @LittleJellyBean23 I'm still spotting not much on liner overnight and watery light red occasional this morning. No real symptoms I need to pee a lot and I'm tired!
IC was negative but I'm only 14dpo so very early still. Keeping everything crossed hun

MrsH497 · 13/08/2019 10:35

@LittleJellyBean23 more like normal bleeding now so I'm not hopeful at all

LittleJellyBean23 · 13/08/2019 11:16

MrsH497 see how long it lasts, me too not very hopeful this morning, I took a cheap hpt but bfn but I know it's way too early so I'm definitely not going to test until next week again, it's so annoying waiting...

MrsH497 · 13/08/2019 11:26

@LittleJellyBean23 seems to have stopped again

LittleJellyBean23 · 14/08/2019 17:00

MrsH497 hows it going for you, I had to go to doctor, he gave me antibiotics pinamox which he said was safe incase I am pregnant, af was due today but no show, I asked the doctor if the bleeding I had on 8th may have been my af but he said he doesn't believe it was, anyway I'm still sick with the flu and chest infection, I may aswell sit on the toilet because I can't stop peeing and dizzy too but thats probably due to being sick.

MrsH497 · 14/08/2019 17:03

Well had a bit of bleeding at 10am and then nothing other than brown if that. Dr called me back said if pregnancy test yesterday night was negative it's just a weird cycle won't see me or do any tests despite my miscarriage in May

LittleJellyBean23 · 17/08/2019 15:02

MrsH good sign no af, yes docs wont check up unless I think you miss 2 or even 3 cycle while hpt are coming back negative, unfortunately they just don't understand, it's really awful not knowing especially when you have had a mc already, have not got af, went to doc started me on antibiotics Wednesday and he took hot but negative but he said it's still too early like what Missmil said wait at least another week but anyway I had ewcm for past 3 days and app on phone says I'm ovulating even though I haven't had a proper af lol , done opk yesterday but dam thing failed to work was my last one, so we done BD Thursday, more ewcm Friday and again today, looking up ewcm and it's also an early sign of pregnancy lol, all absolutely crazy, looks like waiting is our only option, I'm still feeling weird 🙄🙄😂 as I'm just getting over sinus and chest infection aswell as upper respiratory flu since last Monday, only back to work today. I have none of the obvious pregnancy symptoms though, one minute I have no appetite and then I'm ravenous, to avoiding certain foods.

MrsH497 · 17/08/2019 15:36

Pretty sure I'm not pregnant it was just an early af

LittleJellyBean23 · 04/09/2019 09:25

Update! Because I know how it is when you read a thread and there are no updates! was not pregnant! It was unfortunately af! Still trying! Awaiting harmone bloods Thursday morning to see what's going on.
