...but I don't know crap about crap when it comes to this stuff so I need some help.
Basically, the only time I can think of that would even lead to this PG (if it is in fact, a real PG) is May 16 and 17, when DH and I had sex. Aside from that, we haven't DTD in a while. Only done it 2 other times, both spaced between end of February and end of April. Sooooo....my periods have been MAJOR messed up since the m/c. I bled for about 2 weeks during, then after 2 weeks, bled some more, then 2 weeks later had a "normal" period -- or at least as normal as possible since I was at least supposed to get it at that time because it was during my placebo week of bcp's.
Now, my Q to you all ... is it possible I O'd that late in order to get PG on either May 16 or 17?? AF was due on Sunday, May 25, but nada except for some brown stuff last Thursday (May 22) and then some minor spotting on the following day. I have had some discharge, but it's been mostly mucous or that mixed w/old blood.
WTH??? I am so fricken confused. I know everyone just wants to think I'm pregnant, but I'm having a hard time accepting it. And so is DH. Not for lack of want (although it is pretty bad timing), but more because we're worried we're either going to lose it again or we're going to get excited (like last time) and find out we're not really PG.
Any help in this area would be wonderful and if I confused anyone, please let me know and I'll try to clarify. I tend to talk in circles -- almost no one understands me most of the time except DH lol and even then, sometimes it's just me! lol
Thanks guys... I really appreciate all the input.

It's certainly possible that you O'd late, like you said your cycles have been all messed up. Have you taken any more HPTs? Even though we were actively TTC I too had a hard time believing I was pregnant when I saw that second line.

I've taken 4. Only one with FMU and it was the 2nd one, which was barely darker than the first one. I'm going to use FMU tomorrow morning and I already have a test in waiting... so hopefully that will tell me something. It'll either be darker.... or it won't.

I have NO idea but I seriously hope you get some straight answers really soon! I couldn't handle the situation you are in.
Don't worry about posting lots about this, we all understand! When you have questions and need support we are here for you.
Keep us posting about tomorrows test. Can't wait to hear the results. Hopefully it's either SUPER dark or not there, then atleast you know what's going on! I'm hoping for dark though

It seems like the timing could be right if you O'd late (my dd was conceived on CD 21). Then the spotting on May 22 would make sense as implantation bleeding. The faint positives would also make sense because you would only be 10 dpo or so. If tomorrow's test is positive, is it possible that you could get blood drawn. Then you would know within 2 days (2 blood draws) if your pg is heading in the right direction or not. My ob told me that its fine for me to have blood drawn next time as soon as I find out so that I'll know sooner if I'm headed toward m/c and it may lessen the blow.
Here's hoping for a nice dark line tomorrow!

I agree with the other ladies. I'd test again tomorrow. If it's darker, I'd see about getting a blood draw. And do not worry about us getting annoyed with you, we are not. This is what we are here for. G/L

Sorry if all of this has been said, i didnt read the other responses
I think your brown blood and spotting was implantation, and that you did in fact o late. May 22, and 23 was the blood from implantation, and that is why your tests are so light. You dont have a ton of HCG yet, because it doesnt start until after implantation (22nd). Id say retest again in a couple days.
Youre pg, try to enjoy it. You only get to be pg so many times in a lifetime, cherish every moment of it hun.
