So AF is supposed to be on her way tomorrow. My temperature this morning was actually higher than yesterday morning's temp, which is odd, but my body is super weird and will do that RARELY and then plummet the next day, bringing AF along right on time. So that by itself isn't making me nutty.
I can't remember exactly, but I THINK the evening of 11 DPO, I was having some strange cramping. DH and I were about to DTD and I started getting weird cramps. I was wondering if AF was going to come early...  We went ahead and DTD, but I didn't "O" (you know, the non-ovulation kind of O  ) because if it were implantation cramping then I didn't want to do anything to potentially mess it up, lol.
So today I'm 13 DPO. If I were expecting AF tomorrow, I might or might not see a little pink spotting on the toilet paper. Never in my life have I gotten brown, dried blood on the toilet paper before AF, and that's what happened just now. again, it was like brown CM kind of, or more appropriately, probably dried blood mixed with CM. So peculiar.
So here I go getting my hopes back up THE DAY BEFORE AF IS DUE. I feel dumb for this, but I guess it's just in my nature. We'll see what my temp looks like in the morning I guess and go from there. TTC is such a rollercoaster.

Don't feel dumb. It's good to be optimistic.

Why don't you just test? Or do you not test early? I never liked to test early so I don't blame you but those sound like promising symptoms. I hope this is your sticky BFP.

From what I understand it takes 2-4 days after implantation bleeding to show a BFP. I would have my hopes up too!! And you shouldn't feel dumb...I hope you get your BFP!!

I keep checking to see if you have any more news!  I think TTC makes us all a little crazy, but I definitely do not think it is dumb to have hope. I hope it all works out for you and you get a BFP soon!
