Hi, first time posting… my husband and I have just started trying for a baby. It’s always 4 - 6 days (I have been tracking my period since 2020). It varies slightly month to month but very regular, usually 26-29 days and has 1 or 2 days of very heavy flow or 1 heavy flow and one medium or at least 2 days medium heavy flow.
My first period since TTC was due on the 7th June. I had a day of very light flow/spotting on the 7th. Nothing but a few drops on the 8th, and then the 9th/10th was light flow with a bit of spotting on the 11th. So 2 days/ 2.5 days at most with a day of spotting on the 7th..
I took a test on the 9th and it was negative and another on the 10th which was also negative. I waited a week and took a test today (17th) and it’s still negative.
I’m really not sure what to think! I’ve always had heavy periods so it’s so weird for me to have one that’s so light and seems too much of a coincidence to have happened just after we started trying.
I’ve been feeling a bit nauseous over the last week and quite tired (though I did have a friend’s wedding last weekend so it was an early start/ late night on the 8th). Also on the 9th I had quite bad lower back ache and a few twinges in my tummy and lower back since.
Is there any chance I could be pregnant? It’s driving me mad! I never expected things to happen straight away especially as I’m 33 nearly 34 so thought it would take a while to get pregnant.
If I’d just had a normal period then I wouldn’t be worried but I really don’t know what to think. Has anyone else experienced this sort of thing? Thanks in advance!
