Last Saturday, I thought I had ovulated. I had a temp dip, an almost-positive OPK, very wet CM and a fair amount of cramps. Some of the cramps did feel like they were on one side. A few hours later, I noticed a slight pink tinge when I wiped. Sunday morning we DTD, then in the afternoon; after the second time, I noticed that there was quite a bit more blood.

So now for 2 days, I had this heavy spotting. Yesterday it got lighter, and today it seems to be clearing up. I don't know if I should consider it having been just spotting, or a very light period? I read somewhere that it's only considered spotting if it doesn't stain your panties; and if it does, it should be considered light flow. I did need a pantyliner, but not nearly enough to need a pad or tampon.

My temps didn't rise, so I don't think I did ovulate. Maybe I burst a cyst? It didn't seem to hurt nearly enough to be a cyst, but I have an extremely high pain tolerance, so anything's possible.

Last cycle, I noticed that my cervix was VERY sensitive and I'd had spotting after most activity during a certain week. Unfortunately, I don't remember which week it was- before or after Oing. All I can think is maybe I nicked it with a fingernail?

Unfortunately I can't get an appointment with the OB until after a financial appt on March 4th, so I'm kind of just stuck unless I want to try the ER (who will probably give me no answers and charge me $75).

IT sounds a little heavier than "light" but not nearly enough to be a period... does that make sense?

Do you have cysts? Have you had anything like this before?

How long was your cycle post-loss?

It could be a wonky period since you're 2 months after miscarriage... usually they're longer rather than shorter, but ANYthing is possible KWIM?

Shoot I went from bleeding for my loss into spotting back into bleeding in which I think I'm having a period already, it hasn't even been a month yet!
